Yes, I know that Matt Hardy was still doing the 'delete' sign when he stepped out to compete. But in an interview that was conducted shortly after the show concluded, he confessed to the WWE Universe that he had learned to control the 'woken-ness' inside of him.
What this essentially means is that we've seen the last of the outrageous persona that was first born in TNA and then came over to WWE. And this may be because the old guard at WWE is not really open to an idea that is as outrageous as this one is. They are perhaps fans of a more traditional style of wrestling, in all probability.

I've interacted with Matt Hardy in the past in a face to face interview. He had basically told me that he was glad that he got to do one Deletion style match for the company.
RIP Woken gimmick.
