The fan response to Matt Hardy joining AEW has been mostly positive, with the majority believing that he will get a chance to showcase his creative skills without any barriers holding him back. There are some fans though, who aren't happy with Hardy leaving WWE for All Elite Wrestling.
Hardy recently posted a photo on Twitter, with the caption "BROKEN ANEW". A fan responded to the tweet and said that he's disappointed. He went on to explain that Hardy could have moved to NXT, where he would have had full creative control. He added that Hardy could have also led his own stable in NXT, having fresh matches against the likes of Matt Riddle, Keith Lee, and Pete Dunne.
Hardy noticed the tweet and provided a detailed explanation to the fan in response. He indicated that moving to NXT wouldn't have changed things for him, as the brand still comes under WWE which is run by Vince McMahon. He then asked the fan what he would do if he had to choose between a job that paid less money for more days away, and a job that gave more money for fewer days away.
