It looks like there is no immediate plans for Jeff Hardy to return to AEW anytime soon.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com has provided an update regarding Jeff Hardy’s AEW and legal status. Jeff has a court date currently set for the 19th of October while his return to AEW TV has no date in sight.
Hardy has a pre-trial hearing for his DUI related charges in Florida on Wednesday 10/19. As we reported over the summer, Hardy’s attorneys waived his right to a speedy trial and requested a hearing set for July be pushed back 60 days to assist in his defense. The 10/19 date would be the rescheduled hearing.
PWInsider is told Hardy is still officially with AEW, but is not expected to return from his suspension until his legal matters are cleared up and he’s shown he can maintain sobriety. Hardy has been in treatment for some time after his arrest earlier this year.

Time will tell if we will see Jeff back on AEW TV before the year is out, but for now he is focused on getting clean and healthy.
