Matt and Jeff Hardy are one of the top acts in WWE right now, and fans were thrilled when they made their return to the company at WrestleMania 33. However, fans are less than thrilled about the fact that they haven’t transformed into the Broken Hardys, and everyone’s wondering when they will be embracing the gimmick in WWE.
There have been various rumors and reports circulating regarding the fate of the Broken Hardys gimmick, but Matt Hardy has assured fans that his, “#BROKEN CONDISHTION will return fully as soon as the OBSOLETE Owl is fully DELETED.”
The public battle between Impact Wrestling and House Hardy has been going on for months, and everyone’s waiting to see how the saga is going to end. Fans are hoping to see the Broken Hardys in WWE, however, during a recent appearance on The LAW: Live Audio Wrestling, Impact Wrestling President Ed Nordholm claimed WWE has no interest in the gimmick.
“Oh, of course. I was open to speaking before and I’m open now. We’ve offered many times to find an arrangement with the Hardys that would allow them to continue to use the gimmick within reasonable parameters as to what’s important to us and what would be important to them. I understand with the dynamic of their move to the WWE and drama with which they created that launch – I understand their plan to create maximum “heat” in that period from when they announced to us that they weren’t going to sign the contracts, to the date that they revealed their new location. But I kinda half-expected that once that had been achieved, the thing would die its own natural death because as far as I know, the WWE doesn’t want the gimmick, and indeed, from every conversation I’ve had with them, I’ve been told they have no interest in it.”
Nordholm was asked if WWE officials are actively pursuing the gimmick, and he claimed once again that they’re not interested.
“Oh god, no. We’ve been in communication because there’s all this chatter about how we’re keeping it from them. [Laughs] I’m taking heat because I’m keeping something from you. If you want it, why don’t you call me? And their answer to me has been, “No, not interested.”
It seems that the Broken Hardys saga is only getting more complicated by the day, and judging from Ed Nordholm’s comments, it unfortunately seems unlikely that the two parties will reach a peaceful resolution anytime soon.
