AEW star Matt Hardy recently spoke on his podcast, “the Extreme Life of Matt Hardy,” about a variety of professional wrestling topics including what he wants to see more of in AEW:
“I would like to see a little more story and entertainment-based stuff into characters and whatnot in AEW. To … draw more casual fans in and not just hardcore wrestling fans, I feel like they’re there and the wrestling is always going to be there — that’s what Tony [Khan] loves. It is such a hard-working locker room and they have set the standard so high for matches that it gets harder and harder, and tougher and tougher to top those things. I think these guys are having such great matches week in and week out I think it’s tough to top all this stuff over and over.”
Matt’s brother Jeff, who was also on the podcast, said the following:
“That’s where my best performing comes from, is just in the acting leading up to the matches. Not just in the ring during the matches, but showing people another side of me.”
