Jeff Hardy Says “BROKEN” Gimmick Will Be The Most Exciting Thing To Hit WWE Programming
WWE has footage of Matt and Jeff Hardy being interviewed by Corey Graves on the WWE Network. Graves asks about the “Broken Hardys” gimmick and Matt had the following remarks to say regarding the chances of it re-surfacing in WWE:
“I definitely think there is a chance. It’s a work in progress. Unfortunately, because of legal reasons, I really can’t go into it right now but I find it very flattering and humbling that every time we come and wrestle in front of the WWE Universe, they chant and they address it and they acknowledge it.”
Matt added, “When it happens, and I’m not even going to say if, when it happens, it’s going to be the most exciting thing to hit WWE programming in a long, long time. We’ve got to keep people guessing.”
Possible Meaning Behind Kurt Angle’s Text Message
As seen on Monday’s episode of RAW, Corey Graves stopped mid-commentary after receiving a text message of some sort and immediately approached Kurt Angle regarding it. Kurt revealed that the contents of the message might “ruin him,” which has WWE fans speculating the meaning behind the big angle.
Bryan Alvarez speculated on Wrestling Observer Live that this angle could potentially lead to the return of Stephanie McMahon to weekly WWE television. While not confirmed, her return could happen as early as next week, but the “text message” angle is expected to be a big deal for Angle’s character.
