An AEW star has suggested that their current storyline will lead to a popular persona returning.
Matt Hardy has left an endearing legacy on the wrestling business through a three decade career that has spanned WWE, IMPACT Wrestling, ROH and AEW.
Since signing with All Elite Wrestling in 2020, Hardy has shown various different alter egos from his Big Money Matt character to the Hardy Boyz reunion.
Hardy’s latest storyline has seen Stokely Hathaway and The Firm gain ownership over his and Private Party’s contracts.
On the latest episode of “The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy”, the AEW star suggested there’s a chance fans will see the return of his Broken Matt persona thanks to his current situation with The Firm.
Hardy said:
“I think there’s a chance it’s not out of the realm of possibility. It could definitely happen, we’ll see. It’s going to be really interesting to see how this scenario, with myself in The Firm, ends up playing out. Let it play out. Who knows this might lead to me being broken.”
Hardy continued on to once again stressed the importance of reinvention, saying:
“I mean, you always gotta evolve. You always gotta freshen up. I mean, you just can’t give — you can’t do reruns. Much like how professional wrestling is 52 weeks a year, new, first-content. We don’t do reruns in wrestling, you always have to move the story forward. You always have to evolve and the same thing goes when you revisit a different character.”
As previously reported, Matt Hardy explained why he believes a top AEW star is like Hulk Hogan in WCW on his podcast.
