Amal Joyce is a WWE editor at EssentiallySports. At the start of his career, he worked for a national newspaper before diving headfirst into sports journalism as a football writer and now as an editor at ES. He also holds a Bachelors in Media Studies.

Amal is often seen covering Monday Night Raw, where he keeps a keen eye on the goings-on of major stars like Cody Rhodes, Rhea Ripley, and Jey Uso. A lifelong fan of WWE, he cultivated his passion for pro wrestling when The Undertaker rose from the dead to take out the dastardly Randy Orton to ensure his WrestleMania streak remained intact. Always a sportshead, Amal likes to catch up on his favorite sports moments as well as binge-watch Netflix.

With the WrestleMania nights closing in on, the WWE Universe has currently been busy anticipating the potential high-stake returns of the nights. Matt Hardy rose to their speculative returning stars’ list as the latest addition after last night’s massive Raw appearance. The former WWE tag team champion caught the entire WWE realm off guard being in attendance at PNC Arena, in Raleigh, North Carolina. While he reportedly didn’t engage in any talks with the company officials regarding a potential return, the idea isn’t far-fetched at all. The Sensei of Mattitude confirmed that his deal with AEW is reaching an end in March. Given that he has still some years left to continue his craft inside the squared circle, the obvious question comes, what’s the next? The one half of the Hardy Boys almost provided us with the answer with his increased WWE connection. Besides attending Raw last night, Hardy posted a throwback video of his WWE days on Instagram. This heavily stirred the rumors of a WrestleMania return. Now, he dropped another bombshell hint posting a video where he has been seen uttering the lyrics of his iconic WWE theme song Live For The Moment. He said, ‘I can slap a tornado’ from a fun ride. Is it too hard to connect the dots? Well, it’s definitely not. 

Matt Hardy continues triggering the idea of his WWE return at WrestleMania 40 after attending last night's edition of Monday Night Raw.

<h2>Matt Hardy 2021: Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</h2>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-522494 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210121155629/matt-hardy-aew.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />

Matt Hardy is one of the few wrestlers to have wrestled for WWE, TNA, ROH and AEW. His career began in the WWF in 1999, along with his brother Jeff Hardy. In fact, he and Jeff were pioneers of the very first ladder match in WWE.

Matt and Jeff started their own promotion that excelled in backyard wrestling shows but were soon signed to the WWE. Matt worked as a jobber for WWE starting 1994 and signed his first contract in 1998. His debut match was against the legendary Nikolai Volkoff.

Soon after signing contracts, WWE pushed the Hardy Boyz as one of their top teams. They won many tag team championships before enjoying individual success.

Matt Hardy left the WWE in 2005 after he and his real-life girlfriend Lita split up. He returned soon and enjoyed a successful run for about four years. In 2010, Hardy left the WWE for good and would not return for another seven years.

Broken Matt Hardy was a very successful gimmick for the former ECW Champion, as he took over IMPACT Wrestling with his creative persona. He portrayed a more deranged version of himself who only spoke in Victorian English. It also granted him title shots in Ring Of Honor, where he and Jeff had an amazing rivalry with the Young Bucks.

The brothers were back in WWE in 2017 but were separated in 2018 once Matt started feuding with Bray Wyatt. His rivalry and eventual partnership with Wyatt led to nothing, and Hardy was once again out of the company in 2020.
<h2>AEW career (2020-)</h2>
