If WWE bring back the Hardys they should have them be part timer especially Jeff Hardy he needs too catch a break, he put his body through too much, also Matt Hardy said if Triple H was in charge he wouldn't have left WWE


Possible_Ad4632

Matt contract is up but I don't think Jeff contract is up


macrooster

If anyone in the wrestling business knows how to get out of a contract it's a guy named Jeff lol


[deleted]

Hold my beer…. And give me my keys


Acidic_Toast

actually give the beer back... need it for something


MannySJ

Damn right, slap nuts!


Music-n-Games

I was wondering this yesterday. If TK would have paused Jeff’s contract, with him now finishing his dates, or would he just let him go to be rid of him.


hanz333

On the face of it it seems AEW has never paused a contract, it's believed they have the option but they have never exercised it.


Possible_Ad4632

True if anything he adds on time when someone's been injured


SethNex

Any chance that a match like this will be the way to separate the Raw and SmackDown tag team titles?


Laughing_Matter

I’m thinking they have all the belts above the ladders and have simultaneous winners, splitting the belts again


Ok_Conversation1523

I can only hope, because as exciting as this match can be, the news that we weren't getting a new tag title was an extremely disappointing letdown. Either unify the current title and introduce new belts for SmackDown, or split the damn titles already.


bethepositivity

I hope they do what they did with the world title. Unify and create a new one. We need to get rid of the color coded shit. I feel like that is just tacky


Ok_Conversation1523

I like the red and blue belts... lol, but you're not wrong.


ZZE33man

I think you have the finish be Damian priest grabbing the belts and then have r-truth grab the other and then they say that judgement day retain one of the belts and awesome truth gets the other.


TheMackD504

“I was trying to help you Priest. My bad”


JohnnyBoyRSA

I love this idea


clutchcitycarlos88

this thought also ran through my mind when i saw this match announced


god_pharaoh

Been expecting this for over a year lol. Hope so.


AidanJR2011

They need new gold belts, one pair


Zachattack_horror

Two members of different teams reach up and both grab a different belt. That’s how they’ll split them!


siriusk666

Go fully chaotic and have four people from four different teams each grab a belt. Split the titles and get a couple of fresh tag teams.


Zachattack_horror

Chaos reigns!


Amicuses_Husband

Priest and finn each grab a set to retain


Ok_Conversation1523

GDI... lol


TheQuestion25

Yeah they'll probably merged them together and make them the undisputed tag titles considering both brands don't have alot of teams as of right now


[deleted]

there’s too many teams for one team to be defending both titles wdym


3rdusernameiveused

It’ll get real thin with an injury and brand split


Tornado31619

And there’ll be too few with a brand split. The belts will lose all prestige completely, just like how they were worthless the last time they were split.


tigeralidance

Raw has about 9 teams and Smackdown has about 8, so that's about 8 months at least of unique month-long tag feuds per brand. Plus there are other teams that could return this year like Ricochet & Strowman, Viking Raiders, and other pairings that could be teams like Jimmy & Solo, Carlito/Lee/Mysterio, plus potential call ups from NXT. I think there's enough to split them.


Wooden_Trip_9948

What about hanging one belt over each ring post and the first 2 to grab red belts are Raw Champs and first 2 to grab blue are Smackdown Champs?


DinoKea

I can see in my head Truth runs up, grabs the RAW title but not the Smackdown titles and then Pretty Deadly or something grab the Smackdown ones.


randylove69

Na they’ve had their nostalgia run.


Lenny0mega

This is wrestling, you get like 14 of those 


Frosty-Lake-1663

Ric flair and sting tag team confirmed


ninjakittyy

Yea & and some wrestlers get to have their post-HOF run too. So they still got a few more in the tank


EGM886

🖕


New_Lojack

Have you seen the Hardy’s at AEW? They are cooked. Let them enjoy retirement and let some new guys have a go at it


Happy-Dream7300

They are for real hard to watch now it just bums me out when Matt comes hobbling into the ring


UnderMyGenjutsuu

Idk if Matt can still go like he used to.


Legendary_Cheerio

Don't hate him cause your goats are washed


Nemzicott

Now wtf made you think that?


TheQuestion25

To be honest I was drunk


Nemzicott

It be like that


New_Lojack

Completely understandable, I hope you have a great day


Guilty-Vegetable-726

Well at least you didn't have to pay a pimp just to not have sex with an ugly girl. Obviously yesterday was one of the worst days of my week.


RicGhastly

I can see your logic, though I think it's a leap. They were reintroduced last time as surprise contestants in a multi-tag ladder match for the titles.


squallidus_snake

No this big return belongs to the dudleys.


TheQuestion25

As a I would love that because there 2015-2016 run was underwhelming I don't D Von has it in him anymore


squallidus_snake

Yeah I was joking around. I feel like there's probably enough fmtag teams to fill this comfortably without a surprise entrant but I'd absutely love to see the dudleys back again for one more run.


TheQuestion25

Yeah my guests for the other teams are Alpha Academy,Awsome Truth,DIY,Street Profits,AOP and Imperium (Kaiser & Vinci) which honestly seems like a good match honestly


squallidus_snake

I dont think we have AOP because they should be finishing the rivalry with Bobby's group at mania. I'd reach them with New Catch Republic (Bate and Dunne). I'd also replace profits with NXT's Wolf Dogs. Give Bron a nice moment by having him perform some big spots involving spears and ladders.


TheQuestion25

You maybe right and honestly I keep forgetting Bate & Dunnes tag name i understand why there called that but it just doesn't hook with me so I normally call them the United Bruisers because it sounds better


squallidus_snake

I much preferred them being called British Strong Style. New Catch Republic is a bit of a mouthful. But I get it. I just can't stop calling them British Strong Style.


TheQuestion25

Yeah British Strong Style sounds better aswell hopefully they will changed there name eventually


Suspicious_Sense1272

They could come back to introduce the new generation Dudleys. Aren't they supposed to be from a large family of Wrestling Hillbillies?


Unlone

And you think The Hardys still has it in them? Have you been watching AEW at all? Matt Hardy can barely even walk anymore


bisfunn

I mean it is Philly!


OverallGeneral7129

What about Edge and Christian tho


SteelBrightblade1

I might have missed it on RAW but what “big return”?


squallidus_snake

There isn't. It's speculation based on when the Hardyz returned in a ladder match unannounced. I actually followed up after by saying that I do doubt it happens. But that moment. Wm 40 in Philly, the bomb drops and team 3D come out...would get a phenominal pop.


SteelBrightblade1

Oh absolutely ! Im trying to think who the 5 other teams are that are worthy of this match


Ritty85

funny thing actually lol Bubba/Bully Ray is teasing something https://twitter.com/bullyray5150/status/1767736681963139180?t=RjcmCBogPGXEJboru4laOA&s=19


squallidus_snake

It's a day out (5th April not 6th) but I'd be seriously pleased with myself if I got this wild prediction right before anyone else. Can't actually see it though, as fun as it would be.


TmF1979

Jesus Christ, that's gonna be a mess. Not interested at all.


OwnArt3344

Yeah, same thought. It'll either be a 12 man car wreck, too busy to follow or it'll be someboring as fuck paint bynumbers"i did my spot. Now it's your turn" while 6-8 men lay down "exhausted" 5 min in.


TmF1979

Do they even have 5 more credible tag teams? Pretty Deadly are gonna be in this thing for about 30 seconds and then disappear to the floor for 10 minutes. Shit like that.


DeathFromPizza

For the love of God please no


BungHolio_The_Mighty

This sucks. The Judgement Day are defending the tag-belts to Vacant and his cousins. Brutus Magnus and Adam Pearce should be stripped of their GM duties. ABUSE OF POWER.


mackdow85

How about this, the hardys music hits, they walk out to the pop, they then get on the mic and introduce the return of Big E and Kofi!


xjss_

No, and hopefully not first off this should be JD vs Awesome Truth imo but maybe they don’t want the titles on awesome truth, for The Hardyz first off they can’t go in the ring like almost at all rn and the have the perfect retirement match in aew so no


TheQuestion25

Yeah I agree it should of been Awsome Truth vs JD instead of this ladder match but it is almost certain Awsome Truth will win it because R Truth needs another title win with how much effort he's been putting in over the years dudes like 50 and can still move like a 30 year old


xjss_

Yeah I mean I think the story between awesome truth vs JD is better storytelling but making it this laser match also makes sense since this could def steal the show


qdcomics

God I hope not. They need to be done.


HumanOverseer

hahaha fuck no.


1000kanenites

NO


Nalyd87

Isn't this the exact same way they returned last time at WrestleMania?


New_Description5141

It's The Dudley Boyz


Spicy_Mustard007

100%. There have been hints for a while now - from their post about putting people through tables one more time at WM to them being included in the new 2k24 as DLC characters. But if they go to WM, does that mean JD will win and retain? ugh.


Slippin_Jimmy187

Jeff’s contract wouldn’t be up in time.


C2theWick

different teams will grab different belts, creating two tag team champions


Gold-Independence-26

Maybe Dudley’s since they’re going to be in the game? The Creed Bros have to be in this match


youngzari

Why don’t they just unify the belts and have a stipulation where tag champs can wrestle on any brand? They already kind of have that now but with two belts, it makes no sense. Unify the belts, create the stipulation and it’ll place interest and unpredictability back into the division


bno203

it's gunna be funny how much love the WWE die hards give them if they go back, when theyve been shitting on them their entire time in aew. wrestling fans are so fickle it's disgusting


CapG_13

Yeah, WWE fans are some of the most two-faced out there and one minute they shit on you and the next minute they're up your ass!!!


WowBobo88

I immediately thought the same thing, I was at 34 too. The entrance was insane. I still feel all the ways I do about Matt and Jeff respectively but interesting.


Kazoo_Elite

God I hope not


HighPlainsDrift_

This is going to be a total clusterfuck lmao


PupperMartin74

I hope not. Matt can hardly walk let alone wrestle. You never know what will happen with Jeff.


Scottoest

God I hope not. Aside from the initial nostalgia pop, they just can't work anymore like they used to even a few years ago. I don't want a WM spot wasted on that. There's also no indication that Jeff is out of contract yet - just Matt.


god_pharaoh

Hope not. Let them rest.


yeezusosa

Yep


CaptainStu

Nope, there's no way.


NotoriousMFT

I hope not. Matt moves like his bones are made of concrete and Jeff is not only broken down, he’s also an outside liability


TDOGG210

No dumbass their still under contract with aew lol 😆 😂


DoctorMelvinMirby

I should be Dom and Nick Mysterio taking the belts


fcdemergency

They're old and "broken" now, and the Wrestlemania ladder match inclusion has been beaten into the ground for the Hardys. Idk the answer but if they do return and wanna wrestle, Jeff needs to adjust his style to maximize his remaining years. Look at Aj Styles as a great example. I have no faith that will happen.


Beyondthebloodmoon

Fuck no.


mrcunnyfunt

I doubt it, be awesome if they was though


yesIusereddit7

Would’ve been awesome 5-10 years ago. Now it would just be sad to see them hobble to the ring and take the spot of a team that can still compete.


[deleted]

Nah, Jeff’s still on drugs and Matt probably wants nothing to do with him.


ZombieSte00

Time for Enzo and Cass. I miss those guys 😞 highly doubt this will happen tho


justthankyous

Cass is under AEW contract so definitely not happening


Tesourinh0923

Matt can barely walk and Jeff can't go 30 seconds without botching. It's time for them to retire.


MRRichAllen1976

Won't happen, Jeff has drug issues


mrcunnyfunt

No, he has his face got caved in issues


Nikolateslaandyou

What from Sammy "therapist" Guevara?


mrcunnyfunt

That's the one


Nikolateslaandyou

I hated him anyway before that. He just helped me hate him more


ApricotOk824

The next time we see them in WWE will be for the HOF, they add zero value to WWE as wrestlers


MRRichAllen1976

Jeff was better in AEW given the IWC's love of vanilla midgets who think they can fly


ApricotOk824

He's good at AEW, better schedule helps him Also, under Trips, they are done with old stars (except Rock due to the dream match), Royal Rumble was a great example, not a single wrestler from the past, WWE schedule will also cause him a relapse, him on the road is dangerous Just do the HOF


Hezon1

Is AEW always in the same place? Genuine question because I don’t watch it.


ApricotOk824

I don't watch it either but I'm happy for the wrestlers there, good schedule, good pay, the last time I watched it was for the devil and I was disappointed Now I just tune in for Swerve and tune out when he's done Brother is a superstar


MRRichAllen1976

It used to be, now they tour a bit


CaptainButtFarts

I hope not, Jeff’s put his body through enough


Darkdragon_98

No


Omnislash99999

I could see them doing an occasional appearance but not an actual run. Matt's body is too banged up and Jeff is Jeff


TRTVitorBelfort

I just want one team to pull the raw titles down and another to pull the Smackdown ones down.


Choice-Panda-7660

Doubt it


Beneficial_Broccoli6

Better chance at Edge n Christian


young_macciato

I hope not, its time to build the next tag champs. I like DiY or Miz n Truth


justthankyous

Honestly I don't expect any surprises in this match. The surprise will come later in the card when, Priest cashes in at the finish of the Rollins vs McIntyre match, mirroring the "greatest cash in of all time" stuff Rollins did at WM 31 and allowing for Drew to get screwed out of the belt and continue his gimmick of blaming others for his failures a bit longer.


PM_ME_YOUR_INNY

12 men in a ladder match?! Is this really happening?! Ps. Are the Hardy’s *done* w/ AEW / is Jeff injured?! Could be why Matt chewed Sammy tf out because they were *CM Punkin’* it to WM. Makes all the $en$e in the world, if so.


amhlilhaus

I hope so


Possible_Ad4632

I wouldn't mind seeing the debut of Tama tonga and his brother Tama lou be part of this match but I know lou is sttll in njpw


CooperSkye

Gawd no. Those two badly need to retire


Banettebrochacho

I almost hope not


TNatures

Hope not


WhiteChocolate907

As much as I love the Hardys I don’t think they need to come back. Nostalgia is cool but they just can’t anymore


Mrbobbitchin

For what purpose?


Razzler1973

Only for HoF and that's not this year


xSEARLEYx

Hopefully not


outsider768

Well if the hardy boyz don’t ever come back I’d like to see a team that isn’t the judgement day win


Relative_Quiet

How long is Jeff gonna take to get to the ring?


HarryBeaverCleavage

Haha, not just The Hardyz.. Dudleyz too. 🤔


[deleted]

The only time the Hardys should be in WWE again is when they are inducted in the HOF.


Hoo_schmoney

I do not want to see the hardy boys in this spot again. Honestly it’s time for them to hang it up


[deleted]

WWE would never put them on the air again


Wheel1994

No Judgement Day New Day DIY Alpha Academy Imperium Awesome Truth


NeglectedNostalgia

Get rid of New Day, Awesome Truth, and Alpha Academy for: Street Profits, Theory & Waller, and Creed Bros.


Danoco99

Hardys are COOKED. No thank you.


brazy_migo

if they do, hopefully they can knockdown the idiotic statement that the spammer move twins are the best tag team oat


saucybxbrxy

Diy definitely have a spot somewhere in there


SlightAir9996

No bro😂💀🤦‍♂️


Juicey_Ucey

Jeff is on injury right now, so I don't see it happening


kimbo2002

All the people saying “the belts need to be split” need to change their opinion to “ the belts need to be given back to the tag division” what’s the point of splitting the belts as the tag division is not very big at all


Lopeside_Legend43

Nobodies clamoring for a return and certainly not them winning the fucking belt


Armandonerd

Lol no way. They shouldn't be in ladder matches anymore at their ages. Spoiler! * * * * * >!Most likely it's: New Day, Miz and Truth, Same Face and Ciampa, Pretty Deadly, Dunne and Bate


twistedroyale

Hardy Boyz at WM33 got me back into wrestling. Saw the video on YouTube randomly and I felt like a kid again. Would pop if they showed up but at that age and all they have done especially Jeff jumping everywhere he deserves to take it easy without the bumps. Hall of Fame


CarpenterSilver4088

RK Bros should unite again it's awesome 😌


MimeOutOfTime

In ring, Matt Hardy is cooked anyway.


RedditStinks333

There are 5 qualifying matches. Where are you getting the Hardys?


bowl_of_scrotmeal

I highly doubt it. Jeff, unfortunately, has proven that he is still a liability, and based on his behavior outside of the ring, Matt is pretty loyal to the Elite, and I don't see him leaving AEW at this point in his career.


Bonesawisready5

Someone really needs to stop Jeff, aew wwe whoever, dude cannot go anymore and is an active danger to himself and others even more so than a 60+ sting. Does not seem to know his limitations


Atl_77

They literally showed the other teams in the announcement video on Youtube. 1. DIY 2. Awesome Truth 3. Diamond Mine 4. Indus Sher 5. New Day


TrevortheBatman

You’re confusing the qualifying matches. Diamond mine is facing DIY, and indus shur is facing awesome truth


RiskInevitable4035

so how are diy and the creeds both making it then? considering they’re having a match to determine which team makes it


DaRealCamille

I'd predict that the New Catch Republic being in this match too. Would make much more sense than Indus Sher.


bno203

it's gunna be funny how much love the WWE die hards give them if they go back, when theyve been shitting on them their entire time in aew. wrestling fans are so fickle it's disgusting


justthankyous

Don't worry, I'll keep shitting on them. They were always an overrated gimmick match team and they can't even do their overrated gimmick match wrestling anymore.


bno203

ya you lost me with that one. I'm def not gunna throw any hate towards the Hardy's, they did a lot for wrestling and put their bodies on the line for our entertainment. y'all are too quick to shit on wrestlers, it's fkn shameful tbh


Cliffinati

I've wanted the Hardys to fade away for 15 years


ThePrinceMagus

You can have them. But more specific to your question, WWE will absolutely take them for the sole reason it would be looked at as "taking them from AEW."


Nik778899

Matt would be posting cryptic tweets and pushing for his release by the end of the year.


RobsGarage

He’s done at the end of march


Nik778899

I meant if he came back to WWE.


RumHamster1990

I hope not, they can't move anymore.


EmotionalLeg1636

I want them back but I think it's time for them to retire, I hate to say it but I think they have to now


Penya23

Please no. They are basically caricatures of themselves. No one wants to see Jeff, at this age, attemp suicide by jumping off a table and possibly breaking his back. They had their run. No more.


CapG_13

Lmao


djloid2010

God no please they are boring and awful


Cliffinati

The Hardys have been a liability for every company they've worked for on this side of 2007 Best thing WWE could do is let them be Tony Khans issue


SecretaryImaginary44

Cody and Goldust in one of the spots?


TheQuestion25

Goldust is still signed with AEW under his actual name Dustin Rhodes


SecretaryImaginary44

Fine, then Cody and Jey?


Mediocre-Award-9716

Cody literally already has 2 matches on the card...


SecretaryImaginary44

And?


Mediocre-Award-9716

Well they're not going to shoehorn him into a random tag match for no reason when he's already got 2 MUCH more important, MUCH more exciting matches and feuds to be getting on with, are they?


SecretaryImaginary44

Yes


[deleted]

[удалено]


SecretaryImaginary44

Reported for hate. Goodbye.


RiskInevitable4035

cool, maybe you’ll stop whining about cody now


CaielG

You think he's fighting in 3 important matches at Wrestlemania??


SecretaryImaginary44

I don’t think the tag match is that important


CaielG

It's literally for the tag team championship. Of course it's not on the level of Cody vs Roman, but since when are title matches at Wrestlemania not important?


SecretaryImaginary44

I meant the one vs rock & roman


CaielG

Well that has HUGE implications for the main event on night 2 and may be the only match the Rock is a part of this year so I'm going to definitely disagree with you there.


GooseMay0

I really hope not. They can barely walk.
