“As soon as we got to Cleveland, we were met by a WWE driver who picked us up, took us to the WWE TV Hotel where we went and we recorded some media, some digital for those guys, which is going to air on some other platforms coming up in the future,” Matt Hardy said. “It was very cool. It was very cool to interact with a lot of the guys. We walked in. The first person we saw was Jey Uso, which was cool. I saw a couple of the other boys, saw a lot of the office and interacted with them some, and we filmed this bit. We’ve got some really neat stuff that’s going to be coming out on WWE digital here over the course of probably the next three, four, or five months.”

Matt Hardy: We Told WWE We Would Talk To Them In The Future

Matt Hardy then noted that WWE told them that they would like to do more of this in the future. He stated that they reciprocated that interest. Matt said that they had a great time, and they left on good terms. He also said that they told WWE they would talk to them in the future.

“We spoke to people in production and they said they would like to do more of this going forward,” Matt Hardy said. “I said, ‘We would love to as well.’ I think for Jeff it was a real big deal to be there and talk to some of the people because he felt bad about the way he left, he felt bad about stuff he’d done at AEW when he got in trouble, and just to kind of clear the air and let them see where he’s at in life right now.

“That was a big deal to him, I think, so that was really cool, and I was really happy that he got that. It was great. We had a great time there. We left on great terms and everything was cool, we told them we would talk to them in the future and we’ll do something a little bit later down the road.”

Matt Hardy On Potential WWE Return

As for a potential WWE return, Matt Hardy emphasized that The Hardys were both born in WWE. He emphasized that it would always be their home. Matt also reiterated that they wanted to finish their careers there.

“WWE was our birthplace,” Matt Hardy said. “Without the WWE, we wouldn’t have become who we ultimately became, these tag team legends, however people view us or the worst tag team ever. You know, Matt and Jeff Hardy. Whatever you think our legacy is, that happened because of WWE giving us an opportunity, obviously, so that will always be viewed as our home. We’ve said this before and I’ve said this on this podcast, ad nauseam that I think we want to finish in WWE now because that is our home.

“That seems like the right way to do it. I mean, there was a time with AEW where I would have been cool doing it there and just finishing up there, but I think now to really come full circle and come back around to where we were and the people that first gave us our opportunity to become stars and achieve this dream that we aspired to do, I think we want to finish our deal at WWE, end our careers there and do a Hall of Fame thing. We’ll see.”
