AEW Star Details Recently Attending WWE Raw

WWE/AEW

A current AEW star has detailed recently attending an episode of WWE Raw amid speculation on their AEW future.

AEW’s Matt Hardy and wife Reby were spotted in a skybox at this week’s episode of WWE Raw in their home state of North Carolina.

Matt’s appearance led to a lot of speculation about his future, with his AEW deal reportedly set to expire soon, but he has explained his being at Raw as an invite from a friend.

Detailing his appearance at Raw during the Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, he said:

“Literally, myself and my wife, which we try and do once, maybe twice a week if we can, we had a date night where it was just me and her without kids. And we were eating in Raleigh, we were having a great dinner in Raleigh. And she was contacted by one of her friends that she does a spa with inside of Raleigh. And Raleigh is just a few miles from the Hardy Compound, everyone knows that. And they had a suite, which they always have, over at the PNC which is the arena in Raleigh. And they invited Reby over to the deal, said, ‘Hey, you want to come hang out? There’s free food, there’s this, whatever, we’d like to see you.’

“… Reby was like, ‘Oh, we should go by there. I’d like to see my friend.’ I said, ‘Ugh, I really wouldn’t want to go by there.’ She said, ‘Well they’re in a skybox, so it’s like closed off and whatever. We wouldn’t be getting there until 8:45, 9:00 p.m.’ So we actually went. Reby hung out with her friends for a little bit. And while I was there, the skybox, the suite, was pretty open in the front. And yes, I did get recognized. And people started forming a line to like take photos with me and whatnot. And we cut out of there at about 10:30 p.m. I was there probably 80 or 90 minutes altogether and I probably took 200 photos, which once word got out that I was there, it was like crazy. There was literally at one point a line and security came and like had to make them move against the wall so I could take photos with them.

“But anyway, my wife went to go hang out and I was there. It was a very innocent thing at the end of the day. But it was wild. It was wild being in the PNC Arena where we had SummerSlam 2000. And that’s where the first TLC match went down. And just seeing WWE there running again, it was wild. It was fun just to sit back as a spectator and watch wrestling. At the end of the day, I’m pro wrestling’s biggest fan, too. I love watching pro wrestling if I get the opportunity to.

“So, really interesting. And I knew as soon as I started taking pictures, like, ‘Oh my god, this is gonna get blown out of – this is going to go nuts.’ And it is what it is. And actually, in reality, I’m ok with that.
