Matt Hardy: The Hardy Boyz vs. The New Day Is A Match We’d Still Like To Have At Some Point

The Hardy Boyz and The New Day are two of the greatest tag teams in all of wrestling history.

Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy competed in several critically-acclaimed WrestleMania Tag Team Championship matches. The very last one they competed in was where they made their return to WWE in 2017. They were introduced that night by The New Day.

Unfortunately, they never got to actually wrestle or have a program against one another. speaking about this on the latest episode of his podcast, The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, The Hardy Boyz’s mastermind proclaimed that he does look at that match against The New Day as one that got away.

“The New Day is definitely a team that we want to work against. Because I got to reference them several times when I was doing Broken Matt Hardy in TNA/IMPACT. You know, they were The Day of New, and I kept making references to those guys and calling them out and saying it was our mission, we had been sent from a higher power, we have to prove that we are the greatest tag team in all space and time. So there’s a match that was definitely on our to-do list that we wanted to get and have and unfortunately, we didn’t get to have it then,” said a disappointed Matt.

Ultimately, Matt Hardy says that they could still have the tag team match at some point in their careers because, in pro wrestling, you never say never.

“But yeah, I would have loved to have had that match,” he continued. “Once again, Kofi is the guy I’ve known for a long time, got a lot of love and respect for him too. He’s such a great family man now and has those kids and we always had that in common. Woods is someone I like a lot too. We’re in this in this cool text group where we stay in contact quite a bit. Big E, I just kind of got to know him during this last run at WWE. So that was a lot of fun, too. He’s just a great guy. I’m so happy that he has been as successful as he has been the last little while. I guess it’s pro wrestling and who knows. Never say never. Maybe one day we’ll get a Hardyz vs. The New Day match. It is a match we would definitely like to have at some point in our careers,” Matt concluded.

Elsewhere in the podcast, Matt Hardy proclaimed that he believes Roman Reigns is the best thing on WWE television today. Learn more here.
