#4 Broken Matt and Brother Nero
It’s time for the Hardy Boyz to come home.
Seven years have elapsed since the appearance of a wrestler with the last name of “Hardy” in the WWE. However, it’s a testament to just how captivating Matt and Jeff Hardy are as entertainers that their personas as pro wrestling's first post-modern performers have become so popular.
WWE needs the type of cross-brand, cross-platform, cross space and time synergy that they can provide their product. Imagine a week wherein the Broken Hardyz appear on Raw, Smackdown, NXT, and in the UK, Japan, and even on 205 Live.
Given the nature of what they’ve made their characters, it wouldn’t just be possible, it would be expected! At the same time, imagine a WWE wherein Matt is the NXT Champion, while Jeff has the UK belt, and they’re Tag Team Champions on either Raw or Smackdown.
That’s a lot of titles, yes, but given WWE’s desire to want to use retread acts in significant roles it could be possible. There are moments with the likes of Bobby Roode, Paul Heyman, Bray Wyatt and the Hardyz that we should all be salivating over, too.
Once again, it’s time for the Hardy Boyz to come home.
