TNA sometimes signs wrestlers for just a few matches or appearances for a short storyline, or sometimes for a year. And his recent tweet seems to indicate that it might be a short stint for Hardy in TNA. Broken Matt’s specific contract situation is one to watch, but apparently, he will be in TNA for a certain period to continue this storyline against Moose. But fans would still hope for Hardy to return to the WWE. Moreover, one such fan who wants Matt Hardy’s entry into WWE is Booker T.

Booker T wants the return of the Hardy Boyz
