Jeff Hardy is the closest thing that his brother has to a friend in WWE at present, but it appears that even though Matt is now active on WWE TV, his brother Jeff isn't ready to make his return.

Many fans were expecting Hardy to be saved by his brother since it was noted by Orton at the beginning of the show that "The Hardys" were known for climbing to the highest of heights. It was hoped that this was a tease that Hardy would be returning to WWE after a number of months on the sidelines, but this isn't the case.

According to the most recent report surrounding Jeff Hardy, he has been cleared to make his return as of November 2019 but the company has given the former World Champion some time off to deal with his personal issues in the hopes that these will then be cleared away when he does return to the ring.

At present, there are no plans for Hardy's WWE return.
