While speaking on his brother Matt Hardy’s podcast, Jeff Hardy revealed that he’s still dealing with double vision issues, despite undergoing an eye surgery earlier this year.
Below is what the former WWE Champion said:
“My biggest challenge has been the eye surgery I had back in March, the double vision, so that’s still my biggest fear. I can see where I need to see. The double vision is still there.
For example, leaning back in bed and trying to watch TV. Even looking at the camera now, it’s doubling up on me a little bit. But to the left, it’s where it all started.
It’s pretty much gone, so I can see where I need to in the wrestling ring. I just need to do more matches.”
Also during this podcast, Jeff expressed displeasure with his current AEW booking. He feels like a ghost in AEW these days, which is exactly what he felt in WWE during his last run, where he wasn’t booked like a top star:
“When I first came back, it was pretty exciting. I didn’t know what was going to be happening in the near future.
I think the last time I was in this, you know, Extreme Dimension of your podcast, I said in WWE, I felt like I was a ghost just walking around backstage and honestly man, I kind of still feel like that at AEW, just because not being involved in something, you know, cool, and I feel like there’s something so special that we have within us to really bring out and that brings me to ego.
Like for example. I’m in a place now in my life that wearing this Jeff Hardy, I feel like a goofy goober for wearing my own shirt. I’m like, why does it feel so goofy to wear your own shirt?
My thing has always been there’s not much difference between the in-ring performer Jeff Hardy and the reality in this human world performer Jeff Hardy, but ego, even at the show the other night at the concert I talked about ego and this lady who’s another wrestler said, ‘You’ve never had an ego’, but I think I need to bring my ego back, you know, 10 times more intense than it was when I was the Antichrist of professional wrestling.”
