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

3. So now that you€™re older and wiser, how do you feel when you look back on those crazy TLC matches?

I€™m still very proud of them. I don€™t think we did anything that was ridiculously dumb in those matches. The biggest thing when I look back on those matches now as far as regrets , isn€™t the chances we took or the insane spots that we did. The regrets I have when I look back on them are just from a psychology standpoint. As I€™ve grown older and wiser, I feel that we could have told a better story that made more sense in the match that made everything click. I think that€™s part of what I€™ve done well as I€™ve gotten older in the business and I€™ve learned more. I€™m a much better storyteller and a much better personality than I was ten years ago and especially fifteen years ago. People loved the WrestleMania 2000 triangle ladder match, but in my opinion, that was the weakest match of them all. It was a spectacle, no doubt, and we did a lot of cool stuff, but looking back now, there were a lot of gaps in logic from a psychology standpoint, you know? There are little things, nit-picking, that I would change. But looking back, I don€™t regret having those matches, and I don€™t regret the chance we took, because whether I want to admit it or not, those are the matches that made us famous. You know, people will always remember those TLC matches, hell there€™s still a TLC pay-per-view in the WWE and I will always be credited as being one of the founders of those matches, because we really got that whole craze started.
