Tony Khan Calls It A Dream Come True To Have Jeff & Matt Hardy Team In AEW

AEW President Tony Khan is happy to now have The Hardy Boyz together in the promotion. Matt Hardy signed in 2020 and Jeff just made his promotional debut this week on Dynamite. 

Khan explained how it was possible to get their anthem during an appearance on SiriusXM’s Busted Open Radio.

“That was tremendous [hearing The Hardy’s theme song on Dynamite],” Khan said. “That track is in a publicly available catalog and we were able to get it. So that was tremendous, and boy, Matt, and Jeff both looked great, and it was great to see them together, and I’m excited for when we can see them come out together.”

Khan stated he had been dreaming about for the company to get the brothers together again.

“It’s something that we’ve dreamed about since AEW started,” Khan stated. “I think we have put an emphasis on tag team wrestling and we have some of the great tag teams.”

Khan believes adding Jeff to the AEW roster will bring a lot of value and thinks it’s a big deal for the promotion. 

“I think Jeff is a transcendent wrestler,” Tony Khan explained. “It’s amazing because even though Jeff has been around pro wrestling now for literally decades, I do think he transcends age and experience in many ways. I think he is someone that a lot of the young wrestlers could learn a lot from in terms of connecting with the crowd, but I also think he’s just a fresh and exciting match-up for a lot of the young wrestlers here in AEW.

“Not in just tag teams, but also a he’s a great singles wrestler, a former world champion, so having Jeff Hardy in AEW, it’s gonna be huge for the singles and the tag teams, and it’s gonna be great for the experienced wrestlers, people he’s been in the ring with, people who have been in the same company as him before. And then you’ve got a whole locker room of people who have never been in the same company as Jeff, that have been dreaming of this moment. So, it’s a really big deal.”
