CARTHAGE - Wrestling star Matt Hardy's list of legal woes got longer today after Moore County lawmen filed drug-related charges against him from a search last week at his home on Boys Camp Road in Cameron.
Hardy, 36, has been charged with possessing a controlled substance with intent to sell or deliver, possessing a controlled substance, maintaining a drug dwelling and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia, according to a release today from the Moore County Sheriff's Office.
The search at Hardy's home on Sept. 14 turned up 20 vials of anabolic steroids, one hit of Ecstasy and $1,961 in cash, the release said.
It is Hardy's third arrest in less than a month, authorities said.
Hardy, a former World Wrestling Entertainment and Impact Wrestling wrestler, was charged in Raleigh last week with driving while impaired.
On Aug. 20, Hardy was charged with driving while impaired after crashing his 2009 Chevrolet Corvette into a tree about a half-mile south of Vass, authorities said.
On Aug. 19, Hardy crashed his 2006 Cadillac when he collided with a guard rail on U.S. 1 in Southern Pines, authorities said.
He was not cited for the incident.
On Tuesday, Hardy released a video on his YouTube channel in which he announced that he was entering a rehabilitation facility to seek help for substance abuse.
He was released today on a written promise to appear in Moore County court on Thursday.
