Velvet Sky Says WWE Star “Deserves Way More”
On Monday's RAW, Jeff Hardy went up against Austin Theory after Theory took out Hardy the week prior. Near the end of the match, Hardy missed a swanton bomb and Theory rolled him up (while also grabbing his belt/pants) for the pinfall victory.
This loss was the latest in a string of losses Hardy has had over the past few weeks (WWE US Champion Damian Priest, 6-Man Tag Match, and a US Title Triple Threat at Extreme Rules) despite still receiving big cheers from the fans.
NWA Commentator Velvet Sky commented about Hardy and WWE's usage of the veteran star.
"[In my honest opinion], Jeff Hardy deserves way more than how he's being used," Sky wrote.
A fan in the comments questioned if Hardy going over someone new, like Theory, was really the way to go, instead.
"No I didn't say that at all," Sky responded. "I don't have a problem with vets putting over younger talent. But with Jeff he gets buried week after week."
Earlier this week, WWE Hall of Famer D-Von Dudley spoke about why he and Bully Ray "do not do business anymore" after the two parted ways in 2016.
Sky, Bully Ray's fiancé, commented in a now deleted tweet, "Fiction can be fun.... lol if ya'll only knew the truth. Cuz this ain't it."
IMHO, Jeff Hardy deserves way more than how he's being used.
