North Carolina is the hometown of Matt Hardy, who was born, raised and currently resides there. In recent times, we could see a number of AEW stars being mentioned on WWE television including Michael Cole thanking Sting on his retirement, Buddy Mathews’ picture with Rhea Ripley at UFC, Chris Jericho in the Intercontinental Championship vignette tapings and now Matt Hardy reference.

We have also witnessed WWE stars, Bayley, Naomi & Tamina going to AEW Collision for their friend Mercedes Mone’s AEW debut. Is the potential appearances of stars paving way to a forbidden door or a crossover between WWE & AEW? Comment your thoughts.

Last time when Matt was seen on AEW television was in February 2024 on Rampage, where he showed up after his brother injured his nose by Sami Guevara’s top rope move. Matt Hardy came out to escort Jeff backstage and was able to see him yelling Sami Guevara on the fan tapings of the show.
