#3 A Heel Turn

Currently a much loved babyface, Matt has shown in the past that he can work extremely well as a heel. Whether it was his overconfident “Mattitude V1” gimmick or the “scorned elder brother”, Matt always excelled as a “bad-guy”.

Even during his time with Impact Wrestling, Matt turned heel during his match with EC3, in what many believe to be one of the best executed heel turns in the company’s history.

One way to go about it would be turning on Jason Jordan, thus helping elevate the young talent with a meaningful and personal rivalry.

Another way to go about it would be for Matt to come out and start bad-mouthing his brother. However, the rivalry between Matt and Jeff has been done multiple times in the past, so it would probably behove WWE to pit the elder Hardy brother against a younger opponent.
