Matt Hardy discusses Jeff returning to TNA, AEW run

[Chris]

“I believe in TNA the Hardy Boyz can get the run that we deserve at this stage of our careers and that is the run to cement our legacy and that is very important to both of us."

“Look, we have incredible star power. If you were at Wrestlecon in Philadelphia, it was outrageous how much we signed, how many people that were there to see us. We have fans coming up crying to us like it’s 2000 all the time, but I feel like AEW is more focused on having a five-star match as opposed to having a segment that is hugely impactful and makes a moment.”

“In the beginning, we started off very well. Jeff messed up and he made a mistake. Jeff tried to repent for that, he did everything, he went and got right and one thing that I can say about Jeff that I am very happy at the place he is in in his life. He’s practically perfect as a human being. He hasn’t been like this in well over 20 years.”

“(Jeff) was in a good place, I just don’t know why we never got that other opportunity to show people what we can do and capitalize on the popularity that we have."

“We would have loved to have had that run in AEW but low and behold, that didn’t happen. And I think we are both happy now that we are somewhere else where we feel like we’ll get utilized and optimized in our status as legends, as we are, legends who can still go.”

“AEW is a great organization, the pro wrestling world needs it but it wasn’t the place for me and Jeff at this certain time because they are just in a different mindset. I think Tony Khan is in a different mindset. It is what is, it’s nothing to be hot about. Tony Khan, great dude. I was paid great while I was there. It was just, both us, myself and Jeff, we wanted something different. There was one point where I just said, we haven’t won a match in 11 months on TV and we are legitimately in the top five conversation of greatest tag teams of all time. Like, what is going on here?”

Matt Hardy Says His Brother Jeff Felt 'Unwanted' In AEW - Wrestling Inc.

Former AEW star Matt Hardy talks about him and his brother feeling undervalued in Tony Khan's promotion, and how Jeff ended up leaving the company.

He also tried claiming Jeff felt like he was unwanted by AEW before the contract came up. Like my guy, if you werent injured/suspended for the entire time theyd want you back in a heartbeat.

 

[Comrade Khan]

There's a line between believing in yourself and delusion and Matt has taken a jetpack and flew by it

 

[Cwalker]

I’m sure they did feel undervalued.

But that’s because they still look at themselves as mega stars as opposed to a nostalgia act
