Matt Hardy isn’t going to listen to people blaming him for Jeff Hardy’s DUI.
Earlier this week Jeff Hardy was arrested for his third DUI in ten years and was also charged with driving without a valid license. Video has emerged of both the arrest and Jeff drinking heavily the night previous. One person under the microscope is Matt Hardy, who has been blamed by several people for Jeff’s arrest, including Bill Demott.
Matt responded to Demott’s tweet and made a statement about himself:
Understand your passion on this & agree that DD is unacceptable. I expect speculation from fans, but not you. I haven’t touched a drug in over a decade, haven’t drank since I’ve been a Dad. Saw Jeff last on Sun night & flew early Mon w/@RebyHardy. I can’t be with Jeff every min.

Of course, Matt is correct in that he can’t be with Jeff every minute of the day and holds none of the blame for this incident. Hopefully this reaction from Matt will prevent others from accusing him of being a bad brother.
