WWE veteran Dutch Mantell recently addressed Jeff Hardy's wrestling ability. The Charismatic Enigma has been competing for almost 25 years.

Jeff Hardy is known for his high-risk wrestling style which has made him one of the biggest stars in professional wrestling. Jeff is also a former multiple-time World Champion in the WWE and has won countless Tag Team Titles with his brother Matt Hardy across the globe. Matt and Jeff recently left AEW to return to TNA Wrestling.

Speaking on his Storytime with Dutch Mantell podcast, the former manager shared some controversial comments about Matt and Jeff Hardy.

"From their heyday and WWE, they're like 15 or 20 years older. So, what can they do? And I've seen everything that Jeff [Hardy] has to do and I'm afraid that Jeff [Hardy] is gonna kill himself because he's lived that daredevil style for so long, and that's what he's known for. The body won't take that and he's gonna get hurt. And of course, Matt [Hardy] never had the talent and I think he'll tell you this too. He never had the talent or the lack of a brain... They can't perform like they used to." [17:07 to 18:03]

Eric Bischoff wants to see The Hardy Boyz retire in WWE

Speaking on his 83 Weeks podcast, WCW Veteran Eric Bischoff expressed interest in seeing The Hardy Boyz return to WWE for one final run and explained how it is the perfect happy ending for them after an amazing career. Bischoff further praised Jeff Hardy and revealed that he is a big supporter of The Charismatic Enigma.

"I mean I would like to see it, right? That’s a happy ending with an amazing journey and story and two guys who have contributed a lot and made so many memorable moments. I’m a big supporter of Jeff and I love Jeff and his work. It is what it is, folks. I think at some point in time, it’s fair to say the wrestling industry and the demands of it probably aren’t consistent with what Jeff needs in his life.” [H/T: EWrestlingNews]

Matt and Jeff Hardy are currently free agents but are working for TNA. It will be interesting to see if both head to the Stamford-based promotion next.
