"I don't consider myself a legend" - Jeff Hardy on his lasting legacy in the wrestling business

AEW star Jeff Hardy is one of the most decorated wrestlers of the modern era, winning multiple singles and tag team championships in his career. Yet, he still doesn't see himself as a legend.

At the time of writing, Jeff has been wrestling for nearly three decades. He has captured multiple world championships in top promotions like WWE and IMPACT Wrestling. He is currently teaming up with his brother Matt Hardy in AEW.

Despite all of his accomplishments, both in and out of the ring, Hardy explained on the AEW Unrestricted podcast that he doesn't consider himself a legend. Instead, he would like to be remembered for his "never give up" attitude.

“I mean, I don’t consider myself a legend other than like-whenever life has brought me down, that’s my legendary life status as far as, you know like when you get knocked down you get back up and keep your s*** together.” (3:12-3:26)

One of the young daredevils inspired by Jeff is Darby Allin, who faced the former on the most recent episode of AEW Dynamite. After many gruesome moments, The Charismatic Enigma picked up the victory over the valiant Allin.
