What’s the story?
Matt Hardy recently responded to a fan on social media, stating in true ‘Broken’ style that his Broken condition will return to its former glory.
In case you didn’t know...
Matt returned to the WWE with his brother Jeff Hardy after a 7-year hiatus from the promotion at Wrestlemania 33 last month.

The Hardys first introduced their ‘Broken’ selves on Impact Wrestling where the gimmick got wildly popular last year, and ever since their departure from Impact earlier this year, the promotion’s new owners Anthem and the Hardy family have been embroiled in a legal dispute over the usage rights of the Broken Universe.

The heart of the matter
As we had previously reported, the WWE’s RAW and SmackDown Superstars are presently touring Europe, and given the fact that the Hardys are a prominent part of Monday Night RAW, the WWE recently posted a video of Matt and Jeff on Facebook hyping a WWE live event in Rome, Italy. This caused a certain fan to post a lengthy rant in the comments section of the video, to which Matt responded.
The fan went on a long rant, which appears to make light of the situation between the Hardy family and Impact Wrestling, stating that Matt Hardy has betrayed the Seven Deities and although they understand his displeasure with the ‘Impact Owl’ (Impact Wrestling), he should’ve stayed with the ring of honorable wrestling (Ring Of Honor); besides referencing MeekMahon (Vince McMahon), the man with three H’s (Triple H) and the princess with a billion dollars (Stephanie McMahon).
Matt reverted back to the fan with the following comment-
“The #7Deities have told me that my #BROKEN CONDISHTION will return fully as soon as the OBSOLETE Owl is fully DELETED.”

As we’d reported earlier, WWE has almost worked out a deal with Impact Wrestling and will be getting the gimmick to RAW very soon.
What’s next?
The Hardys successfully defended their RAW tag-team titles against Sheamus and Cesaro at WWE Payback and fans can expect their feud with the duo to continue over the next few weeks.
The legal battle between Anthem and the Hardys is still afoot and although Matt has been teasing the Broken gimmick online, as well as with the occasional Delete gesture on-screen, their Broken selves are yet to be fully introduced to the WWE Universe.
Author’s take
Although the Hardys receive a huge pop each time they make their way to the ring in the WWE, watching them go full ‘Broken’ in front of thousands of members of the WWE Universe is an experience that I’m truly looking forward to.
