[Misc.] Matt Hardy on the Edge/Lita Wedding, More

Archive

Thanks to InsidePulse reader Law Martin for the following:

Matt Hardy gave an exclusive interview to last Saturday’s edition of UK newspaper
“Daily Star”, commenting on a lot of things:

On last week’s RAW wedding: “WWE couldn’t have done me a better favour on Monday by
playing my music. It’s free publicity, it didn’t offend me at all. For them to play
this music and for the crowd to pop out like they did, just shows how people feel
about me”

On WWE: “They’re going to realise what they’re missing. You have to be
philosophical. I got the rawest deal of the situation, but you can’t sit down and
die, you have to go on and stay strong”

On returning to WWE: “Never say never”

On TNA: “Yes, TNA is a viable option, it’s only a couple of weeks until I’m free”

On ROH: “I’ve got dates booked for ROH. It’s unique, and they have the most critical
fans. I love wrestling in front of them because you’re under so much pressure. But
at the same time it’s a fun environment”

On reforming the Hardy Boyz: I think there are a couple of big matches left (with
Jeff) for a night or two. My overall goal is to continue being a singles wrestler”

On returning to the UK: “I can’t wait to be back over and hang out. I love
performing in the UK. I love the passion and the enthusiasm of the fans. They are
the real diehards. US fans are spoiled. The Brits go crazy and are so respectful”

Hardy’s exclusive interview for the paper was due to him being confirmed for
“Universal Uproar” in the Coventry Skydome on November 12th, which is being run in
conjunction with the newspaper. Also confirmed for the event are Alex Shane, AJ
Styles, Mick Foley and Jamie Noble. More information and tickets are available from
