    Yet Beth Britt says on her twitter that he wasn’t

    “Funny thing is, Matt wasn’t even drinking & didn’t have any involvement. Classic TMZ sensationalism.”"

    So I’m kind of confused as well.

    LOL what is with Jericho and Helms striking females? They should create a tag team of some sort if they want to continue this.

    Any suggestions for names?

    on TMZ live they said there was a brawl in the back seat of the cab. a woman and the cab driver were struck during the scuffle. the cab driver dumped them off at the gas station and called 911.

    TMZ didnt sensationalize anything. no where did they say that hardy was drinking or that he hit anyone. yes they did say he was involved, but so were helms, jericho, the taxi driver, and the female. they never at any point in the report claimed that matt struck anyone.

    I’m sure nothing will happen to Jericho or Matt. If Helms is released it wouldn’t be a surprise,since he’s just a mid-carder dressed in pajamas and a mask. I’m sure TNA(WCW) wouldn’t mind having someone like that around.

    I hope Matt Hardy gets fired and he kills himself because of depression.

    I read that Matt Hardy was supposedly chasing Helms to get him to come back and wasn’t just running off with him.
