Former AEW star Marty "The Moth" Martinez recently spoke about how Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy interacted with him in his initial days.

The Hardys recently reunited as tag team partners on AEW. The veteran duo is currently involved in a feud with the Andrade Family Office. Meanwhile, Martinez has also made a couple of appearances in Tony Khan's promotion.

In the most recent edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's UnSKripted, Marty Martinez mentioned how the Hardys once stopped by the locker room and spoke to the newcomers in WWE. The Moth added that the brothers genuinely care about the business and are friendly people in real life.

"Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy, shout out to those guys. They just randomly walked in and I’ve never seen this. You thought they walk by and say ‘hey’, the usual pass-by interactions, but they actually stopped at the locker room, just like ‘hey guys, you know we’ve all been there, I feel you so just keep going and keep it up, I’m glad you guys are here.’ It was cool, these guys care about the business and they really are actual nice people," said Marty.

"It was one of the smartest things I’ve ever done because everything worked out so perfectly. Mainly because my first day in AEW felt valuable. Like for the first time, just, you know, the care and love I was shown. Yeah, I feel like I was supposed to be in AEW," said Hardy. (1:03:52 onwards)
