Jeff Hardy interview
DIR By: ChrissiCalvert
Date: October 9, 2012, 2:12 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
The following his a recap of the Jeff Hardy conference call that
was held on Tuesday to promote TNA Bound For Glory.
-Hardy spoke about the surprise of Austin Aries winning the TNA
Title and his lifestyle changes and his role in the locker room.
-Hardy was asked whether there's anything he has left to
accomplish in his career. He said becoming TNA Champion one more
time.
-A caller asked about working with a smaller wrestler in Austin
Aries and whether he needs to adapt his style for the Bound For
Glory match. Hardy said it's probably the thing he's looking
forward to. Hardy mentioned working with Shannon Moore back in
the OMEGA days and said he's looking forward to getting back to
his roots.
-Hardy praised Dixie Carter for the faith she's shown in him. He
said he believes he was sitting in the slammer around this time
last year wondering what his future would be. He said becoming
champion wasn't important to him at that time, but his goal was
to come back and have the best matches he could possible have
and he feels he's done that. He said fatherhood has been the key
thing that has changed him. "When it comes to my daughter and
protecting, I never realized love could be so strong and that
just makes life in general better," Hardy said.
-Hardy said he's never lost control of his ego even though it
would have been easy to. He said he's never changed.
-Hardy was asked whether he would be interested in working with
Billy Corgan on a music project. Hardy said he loves Corgan. He
said they spoke about Corgan's Resistance Pro indy wrestling
group the last time they spoke. Hardy said his own band has four
produced songs. He said he and Corgan share the love of music.
Hardy said his own band Peroxwhy?gen hope to have the music
available by the end of the year.
-Hardy said he wrote a song when Matt Hardy started in TNA that
turned into Reptilian. He said the song fits with what he's
doing now with his face paint and he's looking forward to
debuting the song as an entrance theme. He said he's debuted new
entrance music two years in a row and believes he'll be the only
wrestler to debut his own new entrance music three years in a
row.
-Hardy said he doesn't really have a plan for when he'll leave
wrestling. He said he's afraid of getting hurt more than ever
because it's so cool to be a father. He said his daughter
watches his matches and says, "Hardy, Hardy," and that makes him
want to continue to wrestle because she enjoys it.
-Hardy said Chris Jericho is a huge inspiration due to his music
career outside the pro wrestling business.
-Hardy was asked how going live on Thursdays has been. He said
it's been a huge step and he hopes to take Impact live on the
road whether it's a year or two away. "I think that's the next
big step for us is to take Impact on the road live every week,"
Hardy said.
-Hardy said he is reading Booker T's book. He said he has talked
with an author about writing his own autobiography.
-The subject of today's tag team wrestling scene came up. Hardy
said it's important to him. He mentioned the classic TLC matches
he had with the Dudleys and Edge and Christian. He said he's
waiting for tag wrestling to spark again. He said the Machine
Guns and Beer Money had a crazy feud.
-Hardy said working as a heel made his promos easier because it
was easy to rip on the fans.
-Hardy listed Jushin Liger as a guy he would like to work with
again.
-A caller asked if there's anyone he has taken any of the young
high flyers under his wing in the locker room. He said he
praises wrestlers and he likes watching Austin Aries' matches
because he does things he never would have thought of doing.
"Now my thoughts are going to meet his thoughts and there's no
telling what's going to happen on Sunday," Hardy said. He said
it is intimidating to get in the ring with Aries.
-Hardy was asked about his past issues with C.M. Punk. Hardy
said he's great and he's so talented it's crazy. He said they
are just on opposite pages with their outlook on life. He said
they don't stay in touch, but he doesn't have anything bad to
say about him.
-Hardy was asked about the pressure of facing Aries in the main
event of Bound For Glory. He said there's a lot of pressure. He
said last year he didn't have a match and only had a small spot
on the show with Jeff Jarrett after spending ten days in jail.
He said it's not going to be easy and he feels a ton of pressure
and he hopes he can keep up.
-Hardy was asked if he has anything special in mind as far as
his face paint and look for Sunday. He said he has something in
mind for underneath the eyelids and it will be memorable if it
looks the way it does in his mind.

I remember that interview. Good, solid interview with Jeff. I
always enjoy how relaxed he has been and what he has to say.

That he did. It would be interesting to read both. Both Jeff and
Matt have stories to tell.
