Fans are buzzing with anticipation as a WWE legend’s contract with AEW is set to expire next month, sparking debates over his potential return to the wrestling powerhouse.
Recent reports from Fightful Select indicate that Matt Hardy’s tenure with AEW will conclude this month. While his brother Jeff Hardy’s contract initially mirrored Matt’s, Jeff’s hiatus from the ring due to injury has seemingly altered the synchronization of their contracts.
The Hardy Brothers, renowned for their illustrious contributions to the tag team division, made sporadic appearances on television throughout 2023. Despite their revered status, both have faced limitations in terms of screen time.
