3 WWE Superstars who could retire like Matt Hardy before the end of the year

Matt Hardy recently announced his retirement from in-ring competition via his own Twitter page, posting a video highlighting that it was 'time to go home and be with his wife and children'. This confirmed the recent speculation that his time as an in-ring competitor was almost over.

[EXCLUSIVE VIDEO] It's time for me to go home.. To be a father and a husband. I did so much more than I ever imagined I would do in this industry. Thanks for making this incredible journey with me, ladies and gentlemen. I love you all. https://t.co/xGbm8bKSQD

This was after reports surfaced that Matt Hardy had told a fan at a WWE Live Event that he had just wrestled his last match. It turned out that he would, in fact, wrestle two more matches before calling time in on his lengthy career!

However, Matt Hardy wasn't the only Superstar on the verge of retiring from the ring with several others hinting towards it or on their way out from active wrestling. We take a look at three more WWE Superstars who could follow Hardy backstage and never wrestle again.

#3. Jeff Hardy

Jeff Hardy could join his brother Matt Hardy and retire soon

Matt Hardy's brother is also dealing with multiple injuries and as made several allusions to when he hangs up his wrestling boots. It's extremely possible that Jeff Hardy will not be far behind Matt in announcing that he's just wrestled his last match

Hardy seems to currently be checking things off his bucket list as his career comes to a close. He's competing in his first ever Hell in a Cell match against Randy Orton and has also indicated he'd love the face 'Demon' Finn Balor before he goes.

There's no denying just how influential and big the Hardy Boyz have been as a tag-team and as singles competitors in both the WWE and other companies like Impact Wrestling. It will undoubtedly be a sad day in the world of wrestling when neither Matt Hardy or Jeff Hardy are going at it in the ring.

#2. Jason Jordan

Jason Jordan could also officially announce his retirement soon

Whilst Jeff Hardy has had an extensive and storied career as a professional wrestler, Jason Jordan was just in the beginning of his and showed an incredible amount of promise, talent and athletic ability.

However the former NXT, SmackDown Live and Raw Tag Team Champion was forced out last year due to injury and was expected to return any day now. This hasn't happened and now there are new reports suggesting that it may never happen.

We've since learned that Jason Jordan has been learning how to produce matches backstage as the promising young star's career as a wrestler seems to have been cut short and he moves towards a more backstage role!

#3. The Big Show

The Big Show could never come back?

The Big Show is another Superstar who has been away with injury. However, he's been spotted backstage several times over the last few months and and is expected to return to action soon.

The Big Show himself has stated in interviews that he isn't going to retire and will wrestle for as long as his body lets him. However, he was supposed to return sooner but was re-injured again during training.

There's a small chance, no matter how much I personally don't want it to happen, that we never see the Big Show wrestle again and he'll be forced to announce his retirement
