The meat and potatoes of the act is the stuff they do at the Hardy house, but WWE are more paperwork-heavy than TNA are, so they’ve probably got lawyers with King Maxel and Vanguard 1 negotiating performer contracts. That takes a while. Vince: So how goes the negotiations? Jerry McDevitt: Well we got King Maxel on board pretty easily because in lieu of money he agreed to work for Paw Patrol and PJ Mask toys and DVDs, but Vanguard 1 is a tougher nut to crack as he's demanding no less than triple scale per appearance and he wants WWE Films to produce and cast him in the lead of his remake of Blue Thunder...

They need to do vignettes. As over the top ridiculous as it is if needs to go to that next level of WTF for it to really be entertaining.

Matt just tweeted that the deal with Anthem is done and that they have the full Brokenverse now. In a very Broken Matt way of course...I'm assuming this whole thing kicks into high gear now.

"Is WWE ruining..."
Yes. The answer is pretty much always YES.
Oh hai Bayley!

How this gimmick works is the complete opposite of what WWE is doing...so yes they are.
This is not something that works in front of a live audience IMO it has to have the benefit of all the wacky shenanigans that are enhanced with post production.
It is why my thought was when everyone wanted it in the E that if you were gonna take them out of TNA the only place that would truly know what to do with this gimmick even more so than TNA is Lucha Underground...because alot of the Broken gimmick takes heavly from LU.
WWE has tried twice to replicate such a thing with house of horrors and the new day at wyatt compoud...they just do not know how to do it.

Saw this comment on Reddit
"WWE is McDonalds, Broken Matt is the McRib. Once it's available all the time and everyone knows about it, it stops being cool and goes back to being a piece of old meat in a fancy sauce."

Man I’m tired of his laugh already. I don’t recall him doing it this much in the original run.

Maybe there is still hope... This is way more of what we need, reintroducing the Hardy Stronghold and what made the gimmick so great to begin with Also I really don't mind the laugh, could he do it less? Yeah, but that's not gonna be the deal breaker for me or what I hang myself up on for the gimmick to be a pass or fail. The rest of everything else would be that... it has to develop, it can't stay at a complete one note for so long. We'll see how they play it.

In tna matt became broken by being struck by lighting. In wwe matt became woken by losing to bray Wyatt.
So yeah wwr is ruining him. Although you could argue that losing to bray Wyatt is worse then getting struck by lighting

They're not ruining it to me. Granted, I'm not as familiar with the brokenverse, though I have seen the Final Deletion online.
I loved the laughing fit between him and Wyatt. For me, it brings an element of wrestling that I feel has been missing for so long. I'm talking about the campiness of stuff like the Dungeon of Doom. To me, it was just so "out there" and unconventional and I ended up loving it.

It's not bad, but they're trying waaaay too hard to make the laugh in to a meme Waaaay too hard you say? And this is from WWE's OFFICIAL YouTube page.

...I don’t watch TNA... Woken Matt is just..odd - I don’t get it I don't either, but I went back and watched all the Final Deletion stuff (which is widely available on YouTube) and it's quite magical.

I think they're saving the best for WrestleMania. Maybe not as loony as anything that Matt did in TNA but it'll be close. So why not do a slow build? I'm really hoping for Vanguard I flying around in the Superdome!
