Former World Champion Shows Interest in Bringing His Popular Gimmick to WWE’s Judgment Day
Amidst Judgment Day’s reputation as one of WWE’s formidable factions, an ex-WWE star and former world champion shows interest in bringing his popular gimmick to the group.
Judgment Day has become one of WWE’s most dominant factions, alongside The Bloodline. After giving Edge the boot in 2022, Rhea Ripley, Damian Priest, and Finn Balor took their faction to new heights, taking in new members such as Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh, and Carlito. At present, the heel faction is spearheaded by the reigning World Champion, Damian Priest.
Additionally, Rhea Ripley aims to bring the Women’s World Championship back home this SummerSlam 2024. Amidst Judgment Day’s success in WWE, a certain former World Champion has addressed the idea of joining the group with his popular gimmick. The star in question is none other than Matt Hardy.
Matt Hardy considers joining Judgment Day with his ‘Broken’ gimmick
Matt Hardy first introduced his ‘Broken’ gimmick during his TNA stint in 2016. The gimmick garnered a strong response from the fans, propelling Matt Hardy as a top star in the company. The former ECW World Champion then brought the gimmick to other promotions such as Ring of Honor, WWE, and AEW before eventually making his TNA return at the Rebellion pay-per-view.
Amid the growing popularity of his ‘Broken’ character, Matt Hardy recently discussed the idea of joining WWE’s Judgment Day faction as ‘Broken’ Matt Hardy on his podcast, The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy.
He stated on The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy, “It (Broken gimmick) is definitely evolving. I think it is time to do this evolution. So yeah, who knows? The Judgment Day, they’ve got a cool gig going, so yeah, that’d be something that would be fun.”
Given that Matt Hardy is on a per-appearance deal with TNA, it is possible for him to make his WWE return in the future. His brother Jeff also followed in his footsteps and made his TNA return at the Against All Odds pay-per-view event.
The Hardy Boyz’s AEW exit led to speculations about their WWE return. And considering WWE’s working partnership with TNA, it is not far-fetched to believe that Team Extreme could soon make a WWE comeback. It remains to be seen what the future holds for the Hardy brothers.
