"He doesn't need to prove anything" - Twitter urges Jeff Hardy to retire following AEW star's final court verdict for DUI

Jeff Hardy has narrowly dodged serious jail time after his highly controversial arrest for DUI and driving with a suspended license. In light of the verdict, many fans took to Twitter to express their reaction, but quite a number of users urged Hardy to retire instead.Hardy's lengthy trial came to a close yesterday, 23 February, and according to the verdict he was sentenced to two years of probation, $4,586 in court fees, and a 10-year suspension of his drivers license. Additionally, he will have to undergo two years with an interlock device and a 90-day vehicle impoundment, attend a court-manded DUI school or drug rehab program, and lastly do community service.After hearing the verdict of his case, most fans were divided between either being happy to see Jeff Hardy return at some point, or being concerned about his well-being. Concerned fans notably claimed that The Charismatic Enigma should instead retire after all the drama and not return to wrestling where his mental health could be at stake again.Just Talk Wrestling@JustTalkWrestleJeff Hardy doesn't need to step in a wrestling ring again imo.He's given enough of his body for fans.
