The Hardys look to leave their mark on AEW.

Matt Hardy and his brother Jeff have teamed together for over two decades now. They began their wrestling journey in the backyards, and the duo eventually moved to WWF in the 1990s. Since then, the brothers have had a legendary career across multiple promotions.

The brothers are now teaming up in All Elite Wrestling. Jeff Hardy recently made his debut in the company during the March 9 episode of Dynamite. Meanwhile, Matt has been a regular feature on AEW programming since 2020.

The Broken One recently appeared in an exclusive interview with Under The Ring, a USA Today podcast. Matt was jokingly asked if any other wrestler could have been a "third Hardy." The star surprisingly chose his old enemy Christian Cage.

"Christian Cage," Matt Hardy answered. "We would have put him in his Christian Hardy he would he would totally just fit with us." (H/T: Fightful)

For fans who don't recall, The Hardys had a lengthy feud against Christian Cage and his real-life friend, Edge. The rivals had some of the most memorable matches of the Attitude Era.


Matt Hardy suggested that Jeff "jukes" on the way to the ring during his debut

Brother Nero's debut was widely enjoyed by fans, as those in attendance roared once The Hardys' theme started playing. However, several people questioned why Jeff first danced before saving his brother from a beatdown.

During the The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, the former WWE star revealed that the dance was his brother's idea.

"The question for me was... Matt was saying, 'take your time. Do the juke. You're a star. Do it.' 'I can't do that. I'm saving my brother.' I tried to juke and run at the same time. I think it worked out pretty perfectly. It was overwhelming," Jeff Hardy recalled. (H/T: Fightful)

The Hardys will be teaming up with Sting and Darby Allin during this week's episode of AEW Dynamite to take on Private Party, The Butcher, and The Blade of The AFO.
