Reby Hardy Discusses Matt's Departure From TNA

Former TNA superstar Reby Hardy recently sat down with FOX Sports to discuss the recent departure of herself, along with her husband, “Broken” Matt Hardy, from the company.

The announcement that the Hardys were leaving TNA has taken the wrestling world by storm throughout this week. Reby said that they had reached a new deal with the company, but all of a sudden, things changed.

“Matt had negotiated terms back in December,” Reby Hardy said. “We even had some of the Anthem guys come to our house. Matt came with a number, they countered and Matt was fine with it. All the financial details were good … for sure we had a deal.”

“A couple things were changed and everything was agreed on and then we didn’t hear anything for weeks,” Reby Hardy said. “Radio silence.

“There were a whole bunch of red flags,” she continued. “Matt was like, ‘Well damn, I guess I don’t matter to these people … why would I work for people that don’t think I am that important?”

“Ten percent of anything you do … TNA would get a management fee,” Reby Hardy said. “That was never mentioned, never talked about, never agreed upon. When we showed the finalized contract to our lawyer … our lawyer was kind of dumbfounded.”

One of the current issues on the table is what to do with the TNA World Tag Team Championships, which are currently held by the Hardys. While they have been willing to return to television to drop the titles, the company has said that they will simply collect them.

“Matt and Jeff both separately said they won’t re-sign, but offered to do whatever (when it came to losing the titles),” Reby Hardy said, “And the response he got was, ‘You’ve got to be delusional if you are coming without a contract.’ When someone is trying to do right by the company, that is not the kind of reaction you expect. Two guys who have given their all, have been nothing but trustworthy, nothing but honest. We’re offering to do the right thing, and TNA is like, we have to have someone come to the house to pick up the titles.”

“I would melt them down and turn them into hoop earrings,” she said, “and show up wearing them at another show.”

The biggest question on everyone’s mind concerns the future of the Hardy compound? Will they ever return to WWE?

“The sky is the limit.” Reby Hardy said. “It is very obvious there is interest from everywhere. The ability is there … he can have his pick of whatever he wants. Matt has some stuff up his sleeve for sure, we are catching our breath and relaxing but there is something in the works.

“I am just standing my ground that a full-time schedule is not possible,” Reby Hardy said, which could complicate a potential move to WWE for the Hardys. “As the head of the house, I would not want that. I want this kid to know who their dad is. That is not what either of us want for the family.”
