I like how some people in the thread were still trying to go "LA IS A SMARK TOWN" when people were mentioning the gravitas of the Pop he got. Like jesus just give the man his props... he got this over in a dead company to near worldwide wrestling fan acclaim. Los Angeles isn't even really a smark town. It had yearly Summerslams for several years, and it never felt like a New York or Chicago show.

I'm calling it now, Jeff returns and aligns with Bray as Brother Wyatt.
Then will turn on him, let every other guy has, on Bray.
Daniel Wyatt Randy Wyatt Jeff Wyatt
Then we will finally see Brother Nero.

I have an ADEEKSHUN to BROKEN Matt Hardy and it is finally being fufilled again. I can't wait to see what crazy stuff he'll film in WWE. Will he put The Shield in the Lake of Reincarnation, so we can bring back non-vest Leaky Reigns... trunks wearing, air chopping and blonde streak having Rollins... actually sadistic and not WACKY Ambrose?? I also hope Bray Wyatt will be able to rehab his character with this. It goes deeper: We get Age of the Fall Tyler Black and CZW Jon Moxley.

I missed the beginning of Broken Matt in TNA. Was it supposed to be goofy as shit? Or was it supposed to be serious and the reaction it got made Matt lean into the goofiness?

It was goofy as shit from the start but it didn't reach the levels it became until a few weeks in, which does suggest that it was planned to be taken seriously at some point early on.

Honestly, the best part was when Bray started going on about the 'ravings of a madman', COMPLETELY LACKING EVEN AN IOTA OF SELF-AWARENESS.
In Just. One. Promo. Matt made Bray expose HIMSELF as being entirely full of shit.

Looks like this could be a good program.
Also, Bray Wyatt now looks like if Father James Mitchell was welded to The Predator.

I LOVED that segment! It had a campy, yet very old school feel to it. I think Wyatt has finally found the angle he needs in Woken Matt! Wonder if Nero will return soon?

Yea, pretty much this. It was goofy from the start but supposed to be taken somewhat serious and then they just said f*** it and went full batshit crazy with it. I mean this continued the everlasting Hardy boys feud in which Matt finally brainwashed Jeff and they both were baby faces like 2 weeks after.

After watching that promo, I feel like I should be voting for someone. "Bray Wyatt wants to DELETE money for ADEEEKSHUN programs."
Stoked this is back, kinda sad I missed it.

For everyone worried about Vince tampering with this or not letting Matt run with it, keep in mind he's the same guy who let's New Day do pretty much whatever the he'll they want. Matt has far more pull than Xavier Woods did. I think they're going to just sit back and let Matt make them money.

I'm excited to see this in WWE, just not against Wyatt. Maybe Matt could make a Wyatt feud actually work.

Even the "serious" part involved Jeff being attacked by three Willows. Nothing involving Willow can ever not be considered goofy. It just dawned on me... Jeff can use Willow. And Itchweeed.

No one ever wants Itchweed and for suggesting that you should feel guilty and stand in a corner

Willow, yes. Itchweed, na i'm good he can keep that in storage On the flip side, since Matt is sort of getting creative freedom with this I wonder if the same will extend to Jeff especially when they give him his solo run

I'm not sure which I want more, Cruiserweight Champion King Maxel or Raw Tag Team Champions King Maxel and Lord Wolfgang.

So yeah, still strangely excited about this. The promo was great and felt different from anything else on the show. And again, this is from someone who barely cared about the Broken stuff first time around.
The counterpoint to people saying Vince'll want full control is something I said way back in January when they were looking to be signed in that, for all of Vince's fault, he knows when things make money in other companies and get people talking. The fact that people in the locker room were watching the Broken stuff, the fact that it was the one thing keeping TNA afloat at one point, he notices this stuff and hears about it. If they wanted the Hardys to just be the Hardys, there were dozens of other times throughout their TNA run when they could have signed them.
This is a guy who not only was willing to distribute Bullet Club shirts for New Japan for the US rights but also signed Marc Mero for the Johnny B Badd gimmick. He should have known it wasn't that simple to get it but still. Heck, this is the guy who has pretty much left AJ Styles and Samoa Joe like their indy selves because, well, they're big enough stars to justify it. AJ, in particular, could leave tomorrow and find a place in the Wrestle Kingdom card next month and he'd fit back there like a glove.
Now, does this mean it won't get messed up to hell in WWE? No. But on the other hand, the worst thing at this point that can happen to the Hardys is that they both leave after their contracts are up and just be Broken on the indies and draw money.

This is the perfect feud for Wyatt, we all know that he’s full of shit and looks like a goof already. Time to embrace the ridiculousity of the whole thing. Hopefully we get drag queen poltergeist nun Wyatt and Husky Harris out of this somehow.
