WWE STAR PULLED FROM ROAD FOLLOWING COVID-19 POSITIVE TEST

By Mike Johnson on 2021-07-25 19:43:00

WWE star Jeff Hardy has been pulled from the road following a COVID-19 positive test.  The plan had been for Hardy to once again wrestle Karrion Kross tomorrow on Raw, but obviously that is off the table.  Hardy returned to Raw TV last week, defeating WWE NXT Champion Kross, who was making his official main roster debut.

While WWE does not publicly acknowledge COVID-19 positives, The RecordBar in Kansas City announced Hardy's medical status when canceling his planned post-Raw concert and meet & greet appearance that was originally scheduled for tomorrow.  The official announcement reads:

Dear ticket buyer - we regret to inform you that the event with Jeff Hardy to take place on Monday July 26, 2021 at recordBar in Kansas City, MO will have to be postponed to a later date.

Jeff Hardy just tested positive for covid this morning, and will have to quarantine for the next two weeks, and will not be participating in any live events for the next two weeks.

For now, all tickets will be held to await a rescheduled date. Once the new date is announced, if you cannot attend the new date, please email info@leopresents.com for a refund.

You will receive another email from us when the new date is announced.

Thank you for your understanding.

PWInsider.com has confirmed with WWE sources, speaking under condition of anomynity, that the Hardy announcement is indeed correct. 

PWInsider.com does not typically identify those who have tested positive for COVID-19 but since Hardy's event organizer publicly disclosed his status, we have followed suit.
