Matt Hardy Teases Alterations to His AEW On-Screen Persona

Matt Hardy is a true veteran in the pro wrestling business, having constantly reinvented himself over the years. Due to his extensive knowledge of the pro wrestling world, his opinion is taken seriously all the time. Hardy has now made a very big promise regarding his current run in AEW.

Matt Hardy made his shocking debut in AEW back in March 2020 and immediately started a feud with Chris Jericho and the Inner Circle. In the years since, Hardy has undergone several character changes.

He is currently teaming up with his brother Jeff Hardy, but have failed to win the AEW World Tag team Championships so far. While speaking  on The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, Matt Hardy noted that he and Jeff Hardy are done being nice and he promised that fans will see the most realistic version of himself in AEW soon.

“Let them go nuts. Let them have fun. If you’re one of those fans online that get mad that all the internet wrestling reporters post stuff and make headlines because we talk about interesting viewpoints, interesting opinions, if you get mad about all that and you don’t like me and you think I’m a pariah, fine. Have it your way. There’s plenty of people that don’t, and those are the people that I am catering to now.

Because once again, even at AEW, myself and Jeff, we’ve been very, very nice for a long time. We were willing to give back and give back and give back, but now, we really haven’t been shown the respect that we should have been getting all along, so now we’ll stop giving, and we’ll start taking. So we’re not becoming heel. We are becoming real. You are gonna see the most realistic version of Matt Hardy that you’ve ever seen coming up in the future.”

We will have to wait and see how Matt Hardy will undergo a character change, as fans have grown tired of his current persona. Perhaps the change is the shot in the arm that Hardy desperately needs.
