That is probably what will happen.
Don't you think you're being alittle unappreciative? I mean wasn't Matt the one to defeat Mark Henry for the ECW world title back when Mark Henry was bulldozing through the ECW roster? Not to mention the fact that Matt held the title for a while and is arguably the best ECW champion (after the merger with WWE). Anyways Matt needs to get back in shape...he's getting fatter abd fatter. This is coming from a Hardy Boyz fan. Not everyone is gonna be as huge as the biggest star. Hulk Hogan was the biggest wrestler back in his days but that didn't take anything away from guys like Macho Man and The Rock and Stone Cold were on top of the world but that didn't take away from guys like Triple H.

I read that too from 2 different sources. He was never a "huge" star but he had some moments
so young and another one gone...
I realy don't know if anything would help when you are competing against the NFL. Most people will either watch one or the other or (like me) DVR one while you watch the other.
Vince should change things up just because it is getting stale. The only thing that was even a (mild) surprise on Raw was how Morrison lost his match. In my opinion
EXCLUSIVE: Major Hardy/WWE Update; SD! Incident, Much More
by Nick Paglino
Sep 13, 2010
According to a well placed source within WWE, much of the locker room is said to be furious with Matt Hardy, with some talent reportedly feeling he should be released from the company.
The consensus opinion of both talent and several of the road agents is that Hardy is often, to put it mildly, less than 100 percent, and seems to always have an excuse available as to why he cannot work.
The situation came to an apparent head last week when Hardy showed up the September 5th Smackdown house show event in White Plains, NY, only to disappear from the building without notice. WWE officials had to replace Hardy on the event card, and no explanation was given as to where he went.
In light of the events which took place this weekend during WWE's European tour, WWE management has told talent that tomorrow will be a quote "big day for Matt Hardy."
While there are those in TNA who are thinking this could be a chance to reunite The Hardy Boyz, one look at the video Matt posted from the overseas tour should tell everyone he needs to address some issues before being considered for anything in the near future.
Be sure to keep checking back to WZ frequently as this developing story unfolds.

Former WWE Star Trashes Matt Hardy, Hardy Responds

In a recent interview for ClubWWI.com, former WWE star Paul London had the following to say about Matt Hardy: "Matt Hardy, he's definitely one of those guys who's very phony to his fanbase. I think he tells them what he thinks they want to hear so they continue to kiss his ass. But he's very much one of those guys who won't even take his sunglasses off to talk to somebody, like if he ran into a fan at an airport or something like that. It's disgusting. When the camera's on you and people are watching, of course they're going to be fan friendly and 'I love my fans! Hey!' and all that stuff. But when it gets down to it, they couldn't be nastier about their fans and talk nastier about their fans. And it's not just that goof, but most of those guys."
In response to these comments, Matt Hardy posted the following Tweets on his Twitter account:
"You know the deal, you know me. When someone becomes obsessed with jealously it's sad."
"I kinda feel sorry for the guy, he's a mess."
"He's not important or significant enough to me to even dignify his absurd, delusional comments."
No Interest in Jeff Hardy?

It's being reported that several months back, when Jeff Hardy first jumped from WWE to TNA, but prior to him actually signing a deal with TNA, WWE contacted Hardy several times and offered him a very good deal that would also see him work limited dates. However, as Hardy continued to work for TNA and WWE officials noted that he was doing very little to gain much ground or help improve the ratings for Impact, it's being said that WWE's interest in bringing Hardy back dwindled, and the company is apparently no longer worried about his TNA involvement.

Is there are general wrestling thread available? I'd like to discuss TNA, ROH, NJPW, AAA and other independent/foreign promotions somewhere. I notice WCW under tags, so I don't know what's up in this thread.
ALSO, I believe London makes fun of Hardy a lot.
P.S. OR y'all can just post in the wrestlezone forums. I only say that because some information here is copy-pasta from there. I'm just sayin'.

Thank you, I appreciate it. It seems I'll have to be that thread's saving grace.
Anyway, was I the only one who found Superstars last night utterly boring?
Wait...is this where we discuss what happening in the WWE as in what we saw on Raw, NXT, Superstars, Smackdown and PPVs? Or everything related to the WWE in general? I'm getting that vibe from these last few posts.
This is the WWE thread. Anything that has to do with any of the shows, wrestlers, former wrestlers, or even Linda McMahon's campaign is discussed here.
WCW and ECW are also discussed here because they are owned by WWE. There is a separate TNA thread as well.
Usually when I see someone get a major push like that, 9 times out of 10 they lose the match. I'd only be shocked if Orton actually won the PPV.
More On Matt Hardy Leaving WWE, Hints At Future In TNA
by Matt Boone
Sep 17, 2010
Among a number of revealing tweets on his official Twitter page lately, current WWE Superstar Matt Hardy posted a few today that seems to indicate what his plans are after his current deal with the company expires.
When asked by fans on his Twitter page if they should buy tickets for the WWE tour of Europe in November to see Hardy, or if buying tickets to the TNA Wrestling show in Berlin in January would be safer bet, Hardy replied, "I'd go with Berlin."
Adding to that revealing statement, Hardy offered the following comments about his losing streak, " plan on changing that. It's time for me to go somewhere that I'll be given a fair chance -- that's all I want."
Hardy has been known to mess with fans via his Twitter page in the past, so obviously nothing is set in stone, but the amount of direct, to-the-point comments in this situation seem to indicate something different.
We'll find out soon enough.
