Bray Wyatt has had some genuinely twisted WWE storylines over the past few years, and his brief angle with Matt Hardy was one of the most memorable of the lot. Hardy and Wyatt feuded against each other before joining forces to win the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships.

The angle was cut short due to Matt Hardy's injury, but several plans didn't see the light of day. During a recent chat with Signed By Superstars, Matt Hardy revealed that Vince McMahon didn't fully understand the storyline with Bray Wyatt.

Matt and Bray had several incredible ideas, but the WWE boss allegedly just didn't get them! The AEW star revealed that he wanted to film vignettes with Bray Wyatt at the Hardy Compound, and they even had a few segments lined up to explore Wyatt's character:

"We did have input, but I don't think Vince [McMahon] got what we were going for. If we would've followed what we wanted to do, we were gonna have Bray [Wyatt] kind of be homeless because he lost Abigail and Randy [Orton] burned his stuff down. He was gonna come to the Hardy Compound, and we were gonna do a series of vignettes there, as opposed to just wrestlers on the show every week. I felt like that waters down so much. We wanted to do stuff that was gonna be [at] the Hardy Compound that was super entertaining." (H/T Post Wrestling)

Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt weren't given the time to tell a complete story, but it was surely fun for as long as it lasted.
