Please keep this in mind:
Vince and HHH have tried for nearly three years to get Roman Reigns over and have failed. Meanwhile, Matt Hardy has been able to get his gardener over. And a drone.

I. LOVE. THIS. Godspeed Vanguard 1, Broken Jeff and Senor Benjimin. What sacrifices they made.

- His own Baby Son as King of the Hardy Brand
- His Spanish Gardener/Landscaper/Gravedigger/Xylophone Giver
- A Boat (Dilapidated)
- A Drone with a Living Human Soul
- 2016 Abyss
- A Kangaroo with the Soul of Smokin' Joe Frasier
- Green Beans
WWE can't even book sure fire acts for a Month Straight, people can say what they want about this gimmick, but it keeps you invested, it is hokey, it is ridiculous, but it is WRESTLING. It has characters we give a shit about, it has a story we care about, and overall it keeps us invested.
Match Quality is a big thing in wrestling, but gimmicks, storylines, characters we can truly invest in? That's another, and that is really what Broken Matt Hardy shows us. His entire Broken Empire is fun, it's captivating, and it makes you feel for a god damn Drone of all things. That, is a magical thing.

TNA 2016 has done a segment that I really enjoyed...I'm shocked.
Hope Senor Benjamin is ok, rookie of the year IMO.

I'm an almost 35 year-old man and Broken Saga has been the most fun I've had watching wrestling since I was a child. It's not highbrow, it's not gonna convert non-wrestling fans, but it's as entertaining as anything I've seen on a wrestling show in years.

Eventually this will run out of steam, but after seeing Jeff Hardy wrestle and kangaroo; I think it might be some time.

Aside from CHIKARA Pro Wrestling (Which has been testy these past few Seasons) I agree really, though NXT and the CWC are some great breaths of fresh air, as is Nakamura as a whole.
...
Damn it now I want Broken Matt vs Nakamura!

And it took TNA basically being on its death bed for them to go "You know what? Here's a camera, do whatever you want and we'll air it". Credit to them, they've stirred up some interest and it's now trying to put over another act in the company in The Decay. As long as Meek Ma-han and his Entertaining Sports keeps making profit, then they'll keep things going the way they're going. In the meantime, throw some of that cash to The Broken Hardys or The Decay.

Although I enjoyed it I was cynical about the first one as it came across as a Hardy family circle jerk good for a laugh but nothing that would help the product at all, this one was better in that it gave a lot of exposure to the three members of the Decay and allowed them freedom to show sides of their characters to the audience that wouldn't work in a regular wrestling promo or match. I hope they continue to do these skits with others members of the roster and that they are able to make each one a little different so it doesn't get old. Time will tell.

I started reading a report of this show and it sounded so insane I had to stop and go watch it.
The Obsolete song finally cracked me and I now love this angle.

I can't quite put this on the level of the original because there is something special about that but not to say this was some terrible effort because it was anything but that.
MVP of the night Senor Benjamin in the bobcat and his James Bond villan laugh....the man is sick I tell ya and it is GLORIOUS.
I have not much cared for the decay mainly because of Chris Abyss but everything they did tonight really helped to bring me around on the whole act...mainly RoseMary.
VANGUARD 1...NOOOOOO!!!....seriously there is no better friend to have than one that comes to your rescue with missles armed at the ready lol.

There's a bizarre irony in a faltering wrestling company regaining some measure of it's good will back by basically giving up on presenting good wrestling, and becoming a low-grade surrealist film production company....I don't know what to make of it, or whether I even like it, but I guess I can't fault them.

I legit thought that anything that followed up on Final Deletion was gonna be underwhelming since, well, how can you follow that?
Turns out I was wrong because we haven't yet reached Matt Hardy's depth of insanity haha.
