Matt Hardy, a well-known American professional wrestler, is now competing for All Elite Wrestling (AEW). He previously wrestled for WWE and Impact Wrestling. Hardy holds two TNA World Heavyweight Championships and one ECW Championship as his three world titles as a singles wrestler.

Hardy has used a number of different gimmicks and social media platforms in his wrestling career. In 2002, Hardy began his professional wrestling career, and his "Version 1" character was named Best Gimmick by The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

Hardy's "Broken" persona, which he unveiled in 2016, garnered him a second Best Gimmick award and caught the interest of wrestling commentators. Later, his gimmick was called "Woken." Hardy has earned a reputation as an excellent wrestler in both individual matches and tag team matches with his brother Jeff Hardy. Along with Rey Mysterio and Chavo Guerrero Jr., Hardy is one of just three men to have won the Cruiserweight Championship and a WWE global championship while wrestling for the WWF/WWE.

As a world tag team champion, Hardy has won the title six times in the WWE, three times in the WWE Raw, twice in the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship, once in the ROH World Tag Team Championship, once in the WCW Tag Team Championship, and twice in the TNA World Tag Team Championship.

Matt Hardy’s Age

Matt Hardy is 49 years old as of November 2023. Son of Gilbert and Ruby Moore Hardy, Matt Hardy was born in Cameron, North Carolina, on September 23, 1974. He is Jeff Hardy's elder brother. In 1987, their mother passed away from brain cancer. In his senior year of high school, Hardy had given up playing baseball, having played it as a child. He was a football player as well, either as a defensive end or a linebacker.

As a straight-A student at Union Pines High School in North Carolina, Hardy was nominated for the "Morehead Award," which carries a scholarship to any North Carolina university. Hardy majored in engineering at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte. But a year later, he left because his father was sick. After that, he attended Pinehurst's Sandhills Community College to earn an associate's degree.

When was the most recent reunion of Hardy Boyz?

The Hardy Boyz last appeared together on "Dynamite" on April 12, 2023. In this episode, Kassidy and Matt were attacked by The Firm but saved by Jeff Hardy and Hook (Tyler Cole Senerchia).

Matt was attacked by Team AHFO (Andrade, Private Party, Butcher, and Blade) on the March episode of Dynamite last year. Darby Allin, Sting, and Jeff Hardy, who was making his television debut, then defended Matt.

In the Dynamite episode airing on October 12, 2022, Stokely Hathaway discloses that he has purchased Private Party's contracts from LFI. A match between Ethan Page and Isiah Kassidy is proposed as a challenge for Rampage during this phase. The Firm obtains Matt Hardy's contract if Page prevails, and if the Private Party wins, they will be released from The Firms - such were the stakes then.

Finally, Page prevailed in the bout on the October 14 Rampage episode, forcing Hardy and Private Party to become members of The Firm. Hardy was prohibited from utilizing Twist of Fate and the Hardy theme for the following few weeks.
