Matt Hardy, who was released by WWE today, has updated his Twitter and YouTube pages with the following post-release reactions.
Thank God! :) I swear.. It was harder for me to get released then it was to get hired! This is ABSOLUTELY what I want, now I can be me!
I wanna thank WWE for giving me an opportunity, & I thank all the people & friends that helped me there. But I HAD to move on to be happy.
I wanna thank JR, who hired me, Michael Hayes, who taught me SO much, & Vince, for letting me make a living & learn from him for 12 years.
While some of you make look at this as an ending-I promise you, this is THE MUTHAF*CKING BEGINNING FOR MATT HARDY! Now I can create change!
Altho WWE gave me SO much, I honestly feel like a prisoner set free. Now I have no more strict rules, personal or creative, to be bound by.
I want to change the business in many area, the way workers are treated & think, & how to live happily outside of the machine. I’m excited!
I have so many things on my plate to do right now, it’s crazy-in a great way! I will be listening to my fans tho, I respect their opinions.
He also commented on TNA and his brother Jeff’s heel turn:
TNA did a 1.4 last night, good for them. I have no idea what’s going on in Jeff’s head, but I am proud of him for winning the World Title.
Matt also exchanged Tweets with Jim Ross, Goldust, Kat, Carlito, Shannon Moore, X-Pac and others. Matt’s alter-ego MATTHEW has yet to respond.
