"TNA Is Not Going Out Of Business!" - 10 Questions With Matt Hardy

Matt Hardy spoke exclusively to WhatCulture for a very honest and revealing interview.

Matt Hardy is a survivor. One of the last remaining campaigners of the old Attitude era in the WWF, Matt and his brother Jeff set the standard for high risk, spectacular matches in the early part of the last decade. Their TLC matches with the likes of the Dudley Boys and Edge & Christian were the foundation of the Money in the Bank multiple participant style matches that we see in the WWE and elsewhere to this very day. Hardy himself has certainly lived a life full of ups and downs. Released by the WWE in 2005, he returned a few months later after his real-life girlfriend Amy Dumas (Lita) was discovered to have cheated on him with his friend Adam Copeland (Edge). As Hardy€™s real life played out into an uneasy storyline, the three participants eventually went their separate ways. In 2010, WWE sent him home from a European tour, which Hardy followed up by posting videos on his YouTube channel, but the condition of Hardy€™s health concerned his legions of fans. Since then, Hardy has wrestled for Ring of Honor and TNA. At TNA€™s Bound for Glory PPV a few weeks ago, Hardy finally won the TNA World Heavyweight Championship from EC3 (Ethan Carter III), only to relinquish it mere days later due to a storyline legal injunction from the former champ. Hardy opened up to WhatCulture about his past, present and future in this exclusive interview I conducted;
