Fresh speculation has emerged linking a number of former and current WWE Superstars with a jump to AEW.

This comes from the most recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, on which Matt Hardy was named as a wrestler who could cross over when his current deal expires later this year.

Hardy's future has been a constant source of speculation over the past few months. Recent times have seen him go back to his Broken/Woken character on the Free the Delete web series and he's constantly dropping hints on social media. On top of this, last week's Dark Order segment on Dynamite nodded to the WWE legend, with Evil Uno dropping a big "wonderful!" to close his promo.

The recently released Luke Harper was also brought up, though he's currently waiting out his no-compete clause. Harper recently changed his social media names back to "Brodie Lee," having filed trademarks for his old ring name in late 2019, and looks set to jump back into wrestling in the spring.

The Revival were also mentioned, meanwhile, with Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson's current WWE contracts expiring in Q2 2020. However, recent reports suggest WWE are now very confident of retaining the duo.
