In case you didn't know....
The Hardy Family and GFW have not had the best relations ever since the Hardy Boyz left TNA/Impact Wrestling/GFW to join WWE. They were not allowed to use the 'Broken' gimmick during their WWE run. Reby Hardy was not silent at all on the matter, often taking to Twitter to express her displeasure.
Rumours about GFW Financial trouble surfaced recently as Anthem Sports and Entertainment have apparently been trying to cash out and get out of the wrestling business. Matt and Reby both spoke out immediately when the news came up, as Reby mocked the company, and Matt said that the "Hardys will outlast all."

The heart of the matter
GFW recently sent out a press release which announced several Global and Digital expansions, including deals with Pluto TV, Pop TV, as well as their new Global Wrestling Network. The press release also had a mention of an extension of the partnership with Anthem, though there have been rumours of Anthem wishing to get away from them.
Reby Hardy pointed out that the developments mentioned were just initiatives, and not certainties. She praised GFW for their wise choice of words.
What's next?
The Press Release announced a lot of improvements and extensions, and also had mentions of several long term plans. If these plans come into effect, they will be definitely improve the content, in the long run.
Author's take
The press release seemed impressive and full of positive news, but what Reby Hardy said seems to likely be nearer to the truth with the rumours of the Financial Problems that GFW have been going through. It is very unlikely at this point that there will be so much investment and work going into a promotion that is 'haemorrhaging funds'.
