Matt hardy family office timeline

[Lance Uppercut]

I’m pretty sure has been one long storyline since maybe 2021, but damn I’m like  “how did we get to Ethan page owning Matt”?

I remember one day he he challenges hangman for his services, Matt loses and he’s like “it’s okay I’m still rich”, then he recruits private party. I think he has butcher blade and bunny? Then somehow Andrade buys him out. Then Andrade disappears and the Rush has his. Then it somehow went to Stokely? What happened to the firm and was only an Ethan page story?

Am I remembering this right?

With how long this saga has gone on it's best we start at the beginning for the Hardy Family Office...

Didn't that storyline end with Matt's face turn?

[Celexa Bliss 54]

It all goes back to the beginning of the Matt/Private Party alliance, if you want to get super technical. That was near the end of 2020, some time between Full Gear and the Brodie Lee Celebration of Life, because they teamed up against Colt and The Bucks that night and had already been working heel. The Hangman match was Revolution 2021 and the winner would receive the loser's first quarter earnings for the year. They officially became The Hardy Family Office after The Butcher and The Blade got involved.

What I can't find is when did Andrade get involved, and when did the transition from Andrade and AFO to RUSH and LFI happen?

Matt wants to be the head of the table, but Jeff always jumps through it.

Oh my god, the contract storyline is still going. Now Hardy owns Paige. I swear, this has been a variation of the same story for 2 years

The stunning conclusion to OC and Matt Hardy is due any day now.

That was Orange and Ishii destroying them I thought

I think Matt Hardy's AEW run might be one of the most lopsided in terms of quality ever. He's been involved in so much terrible crap and the only positive I'm coming up with is that time Gangrel cameoed.

I guess maybe the golf cart thing but I didn't see that when it happened and kind of just found the constant callbacks to it afterward to have wrecked the joke.

OK.

So it starts, Broken Matt Hardy is here, that goes for a while until I think the Sammy Injury. After that he starts transforming into Big Money Matt and starts with Private Party, then he targets Page, who defeats him in Big Money Match.

Then he buys the services of Butcher/Blade, after Eddie's Family faction dies out. Thats when HFO becomes an official stable. Matt loads the contracts so that he gets a ridiculous cut of their pay. They go on to lose every match of importance, while adding TH2 and Jora Johl.

Then in early 2022, Andrade buys himself in, creating the AHFO. Soon after, Andrade convinces the rest to give the thumbs down to Matt, especially private party, and forming AFO. They go on to lose every match of importance, including to the Hardy Boys, who reform.

Eventually Andrade is like "F THIS, I'm forming LFI, and sells the contracts to Stokely Hatheway. But they don't know that yet, because Matt is trying to make amends to Private Party, allowing himself to be beaten by the pair.

EventuallY Stokely's Firm reveals the contract shenanigans and Matt fights for the right to free Private Party. He loses, and his contract becomes Firm Property. At first he tries to rebel, but Ethan Page threatens to beat Private Party. (By this point Quen is injured) So Matt concocts a new plan, and plays to Ethan's ego, by totally legitimately being on his side, while sneakily causing Page and the Firm to lose every match of importance, including matches with Hook for the FTW Championship, subtly fostering a partnership with Tazz's son.

Eventually this causes Stokely to get choked out by Hook, and Hardy reveals he's always hated Page. This leads to the Firm Deletion where Hardys and Hook win, get their freedom from the firm.

Page enraged, wants revenge but has to put HIS contract on the line. The remnants of the firm take out Kassidy, injuring his neck. So Hook comes in for the assist and they defeat Page and the Gunns so now Hardy has Page's contract.

Matt Hardy's grand vision for the industry: phase out dated concepts like championships and title belts and replace them with something better, the ultimate prize to fight for: making someone be your butler.

The most entertaining thing to come out of the Matt Hardy household is Reby doing "Gothic Baby" videos of their daughter on TikTok.

I wouldn't be surprised if Matt booked that angle where Chuck Taylor was Miro and Kip's butler for a few weeks
