March 2024 marked the end of Matt Hardy‘s career in AEW. The wrestling legend is done with Tony Khan’s promotion. The finalization of his contract with AEW made a lot of fans worry about whether the wrestler will retire from in-ring action. However, the older Hardy brother revealed that his journey was far from over.

Since this social media interaction, fans have been speculating whether Hardy will sign a new contract with AEW or rejoin WWE. With WrestleMania XL just a few days away, the excitement took a special turn when Chis Van Vliet posted a promotional clip from an interview with Hardy.

The full video in which Chris is interviewing Hardy is not out yet; the former uploaded a promotional clip on his Instagram account to hype the fans. The interviewer asked the wrestling legend about his plans for the future since his contract situation was out in the open now.

Matt Hardy revealed that it is important for the legacy that he and his brother built, to get utilized as the legends that they are, and not get beaten up by new stars. “You can’t just go out there and get beat every single week. So it’s very important to me that we’re utilized in the right way so that when we do have a program with someone and we build to a big match, and when they beat us, then it means something,” confessed Matt Hardy.
