What’s the story?
As reported last week, Anthem/Impact Wrestling and WWE superstar Matt Hardy have finally come to terms on Matt owning all the rights to everything that was ever used for his 'Broken' persona in Impact Wrestling.
This has led many fans to wonder what, if anything, from the 'Broken Universe', will be brought to WWE TV. Matt can now legally use the Brother Nero gimmick, Vanguard 1, Señor Benjamin, Reby, Maxel, WWE versions of The Final Deletion, Tag Team Apocalypto and more. He can also change his name from 'Woken Matt Hardy' to 'Broken' Matt Hardy.
In case you didn’t know…
From August until October, the rumors of a potential lawsuit between the two sides had died down and no one thought Matt stood any chance of retrieving the gimmick.
The heart of the matter
Many fans have been wondering if Reby Hardy and Señor Benjamin would join Matt on WWE TV, with most saying there was next to no chance of that happening. However, Matt recently revealed on Twitter that all from House Hardy would be coming to WWE TV. Matt tweeted the following:
What’s next?
This could possibly be true. During the weekend, Matt uploaded a new video to his YouTube account of Vanguard 1, with it seemingly being his return into the Broken universe. Should we see any teases like this on WWE TV, even little ones, then yes it is possibly that we may see all of House Hardy on WWE TV.
Although WWE apparently has no interest in Jeff Hardy becoming 'Brother Nero' again.
Author’s take
I am looking forward to seeing what can transpire from this. Matt doesn't have full creative control but does apparently have a lot of say in what 'Woken Matt Hardy' will be doing every week. Keep in mind though, Matt may be legally allowed to use them, but it is up to WWE if he will or not. Personally, I doubt they will use any of them, including the 'Broken' name since Matt has been pushed on TV as 'Woken' for over a month now.
