WWE WrestleMania 33: 10 Returns That Could Happen
2. The Hardy Boyz
BROKEN Matt Hardy has been teasing a WWE return for a long time now, and has made a habit of calling out some of the company’s top tag teams both before and since leaving TNA. With the brothers reportedly in talks to sign new WWE contracts (their current ROH run is only a short term deal), we may well see the Hardy Boyz return on April 2nd, perhaps making their intentions to capture the RAW Tag Team titles known.
If the Hardyz were to make a comeback at this year’s WrestleMania, it’d probably be a fairly clear indication that Matt’s ‘BROKEN’ gimmick won’t be following them. To debut such a bizarre and uncomfortable character in front of Mania’s global audience of casual and lapsed fans would probably result in widespread confusion, with a lot of viewers wondering exactly what the hell happened to Matt and Jeff.
Even if WWE were keen to use the gimmick, Matt is currently embroiled in a legal battle with Impact Wrestling over creative rights, which would make a #BROKEN return even less likely. That doesn’t mean we won’t see The Hardyz in some capacity though – as one of the most popular tag teams in WWE history, it would be great to see Matt and Jeff have one more go at the top of the mountain.
