Jeff Hardy recently spoke to ESPN, and during the conversation, he spoke about AEW’s young sensation, Darby Allin.

Darby Allin had acknowledged Jeff Hardy as somebody who influenced him. Responding to that, Hardy acknowledged that he did find similarities between them.

“I’m so honored for people to say that, especially a guy like Darby Allin. I’ve never met him but when I watch him on AEW I’m going, ‘wow, he is a lot like me.’ He’s actually like a real-life stunt man and I’ve always kinda said jokingly I don’t think I even know how to wrestle.

“I think I’m just a stunt man when it comes to this stuff because I’m more about the moments and the highlights instead of the storytelling. Just those big extreme moments. My career has been based around that.”

Jeff Hardy has given the WWE Universe several noteworthy moments. Whether it’s his jump on Elias or getting handcuffed to the ladder by Sami Zayn, each of them were nail-biting moments for the audience.
