Matt and Jeff Hardy were fan favorites when they left WWE in 2010. They bounced about for a bit in the indies, but eventually, they both landed at TNA. And it was there that Matt devised his "Broken" gimmick.

The basic storyline was this: Matt's mind snapped. He began speaking to "The Seven Deities" and believed his soul to be thousands of years old. He talked and dressed like a bad Star Trek cosplay. And he picked up a whole bunch of verbal tics and physical quirks. He dyed a white stripe into his hair. He smiled like he was in a toothpaste commercial. He didn't pin or defeat an opponent; he #DELETED them from all space and time.


He had a Lake of Reincarnation in his backyard that could revive injured wrestlers. He had a sentient drone, Vanguard 1, that could also teleport him to anywhere in the world. And his whole family was in on the act. His infant son was King Maxell. His father-in-law was Senor Benjamin. And his brother, Jeff, was Brother Nero. Together, they created a gonzo series of shorts and sketches that fleshed out an entire "Broken Universe."


This feud between Hardy and Wyatt presents an opportunity: to give Hardy one more solid run before he retires, and to give Wyatt a chance to redeem and reboot his character, who is too often on the losing side.

And WWE had better not blow this.
Let Matt Hardy Control The Creative Side

The best thing WWE can do in a situation like this is stay out of the way, although history does not support that happening. This one time, however, the WWE Creative team should leave well enough alone. The gimmick works best as the product of a single mind; it's too weird and off putting to be conceived by a committee of Hollywood writers.

We're still in the earliest stage of Hardy's push. Should this gimmick take off, McMahon might feel pressured to protect his investment and get involved. He needs to resist every urge to do so. If it fails, let it fail on its own terms. Because it will definitely fail with too many cooks in the kitchen.
