Video: Matt Hardy announces that he's going into WWE sponsored rehab

Matt Hardy has announced via his YouTube channel that he's taken the voluntary decision to go into WWE sponsored rehab after his own attempts to clean himself up from an addiction to pain medication, caused by a host of nagging injuries, failed when he substituted one drug for another.  After the three month rehabilitation program, he plans to return to the wrestling business he loves by opening up his own wrestling school.  The announcement comes across as credible as Matt shows raw emotion not seen in his previous videos where he gave platitudes about behaving better.  This is a step in the right direction, but it should be noted that several former WWE performers who had taken WWE's offer of free rehab up eventually fell off the wagon and relapsed into their old habits (including Scott Hall, Luna Vachon, Lance Cade, Andrew "Test" Martin, Lanny "Cousin Junior / Moondog Cujo" Kean and Mike Bell).  I hope Matt is taking this very seriously, and not treating rehab merely as a hoop to jump through to get his wrestling career back on track and people back on his side.  Hopefully this decision will be the turning point in Matt's life and we've finally seen the last of him behaving bizarrely, having strange accidents and unlawfully driving while intoxicated.
