Matt responded to McCarthy's tweet recently, where the latter asked for a "general explanation" about Matt's current status. Matt stated that he has been listed as a SmackDown Live Superstar ever since he returned last February. He added that although he did perform on RAW back in November and December, he wasn't officially put on the RAW roster. Check out McCarthy's tweet and Matt's response below:
Ever since I returned last February, I’ve been listed on the #SmackDown roster. When I performed on #RAW in November & December, I wasn’t ever officially put on RAW roster. Saw several websites suggesting I’d switched roster pages, but not the case.Call me Matt Hardy in LIMBO. https://t.co/soEnNKNOJk

Matt hasn't been used much on the main roster ever since Jeff Hardy was injured last year. It should be noted that Matt's WWE contract is set to expire on March 1, 2020, as per a report by PWInsider. Speculations have been running rampant lately, regarding Matt possibly joining All Elite Wrestling after his contract expires. Matt's name was mentioned in the list of Superstars who could possibly head to AEW once their contracts are up, on the latest edition of WOR.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
