I'm gonna do something that
makes somebody remember me.
>> You gotta be kidding me.
>> No way, don't do this.
>> I don't believe what I just saw.
>> He'll absolutely risk life and limb.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> All of those things take a toll.
[SOUND]
[MUSIC]
>> Hey, how's your body feeling?
>> It's hurting, but
nothing serious, I hope.
>> Jeff was beat up.
We're on a tour bus going to the venue.
He was laid across the seats,
and man, he was in pain.
I said, you all right?
He goes, yeah, man.
I'm cool in the gang, I'm good.
But I could see it on his face,
he was in pain.
>> I felt like I was kinda losing myself.
This is not goodbye forever,
this is only goodbye for now.
>> [APPLAUSE]
[MUSIC]
I was abusing pain medication.
I had a huge pain pill problem.
I was getting pills illegally,
because that's how many I was taking.
And sure enough, I got busted.
[MUSIC]
They busted my door down, me and my wife
were on the floor face down, handcuffed.
I was being a very selfish person.
I got arrested for drugs back in '09.
I got arrested for drinking in 2018.
>> North Carolina police
arrested 40-year-old Jeff Hardy.
>> Jeff Hardy was pulled
over near the shopping.
>> Charged with driving while intoxicated.
>> Jeff Hardy.
>> Jeff Hardy will need to complete
an assessment and treatment class.
>> I can't help you.
I can be here for
you if you need to talk, but man,
you really need to get
your [BLEEP] straight.
>> You don't wanna see that
happen to anybody you care about.
And the only upside of
that whole thing was,
it was such an apparent
sign that he needed help.
[MUSIC]
>> I messed up big time.
And I can't live my life like this,
I knew I had a problem.
[MUSIC]
Jail, man, was, gosh, I mean,
scared the living hell out of me.
Talk about hitting rock bottom.
[MUSIC]
I got a lot of making up to do,
and I will.
[MUSIC]
>> Well, fortunately,
the Jeff Hardy story does not end there.
Join us right here on Friday night
SmackDown next week for chapter three,
