CARTHAGE - A drug trafficking case against a Moore County wrestler was continued Wednesday in District Court.

A probable cause hearing for Jeff Hardy, a professional wrestler from Cameron, has been rescheduled for Dec. 2.

Hardy, 32, did not appear in court. He was represented by his Pinehurst lawyer, Jim Van Camp.

During a recess, Van Camp said Hardy had planned to attend but they had not received a report from the drug lab.

Hardy was arrested Sept.11 during a search of his home. He was charged with several drug offenses, including trafficking in opium and prescription pills, and possession of anabolic steroids.

Officers seized about 262 Vicodin prescription pills, 180 Soma prescription pills, 555 milliliters of anabolic steroids, a residual amount of powder cocaine and drug paraphernalia, according to the Moore County Sheriff's Office.

The estimated street value of the drugs was $2,500.

Hardy is perhaps best known as one-half of the wrestling tag team partnership, The Hardy Boyz. His brother, Matt, makes up the other half.
