Matt Hardy recently spoke about the reason behind the Hardys jumping ship from WWE to AEW.
While the Broken One joined Tony Khan's Promotion in 2020, his brother only recently followed suit. Since then, the Hardy brothers have been on a dominant run, taking down a number of formidable teams, with the most notable among them being the Young Bucks.
In a recent episode of the Talk is Jericho, the two brothers spoke to Chris Jericho on the topic. Matt Hardy explained how they wanted to go out with a bang at this stage of their careers.
"I definitely hoped so, and I feel like both of us wanted to kind of end our career on a high note, and we kind of wanna both go out the same way we came in, as a team, together. And we also felt like AEW is the perfect place with, you know, Tony Khan and uh, all the people from top to bottom to allow guys, you know, we can all agree. We are all in the same vein... He treats legends/veterans, you know guys who have done a lot of successful things in the business in the proper way." (9:23 - 9:56)
