Live Audio Wrestling did an entire episode on the match. They're getting a lot of traction.

I wish Matt would've acted like this when I met him and Shannon Moore a long while back lol.

Heisenberg 07-07-2016 11:50 AM

He wasn't #Broken at the time, brother Volero

I don't know what it is about this whole thing that reminds me so much of Captain Power. Seems like there should be toys of Matt and Jeff that interact with the show.

Heisenberg 07-07-2016 12:14 PM

Wrestling was fun for 17:50 of this week.

I would pay for a Broken Matt Hardy Amiibo.

Only if it's Holo-#BROKEN Matt Hardy.

My favorite part of this whole thing is that they gave the baby a silver hair streak too.

That's the rare variant you need to buy from an eBay scalper. But have another Mairo instead!

+88,000 viewers for a ridiculous looking Hardy vs. Hardy battle put on by a promotion that people have ignored/buried for the past year and a half is kind of a lot, Droford.

Jim Ross enjoyed The Final Deletion
Quote:

On the Final Deletion match from Impact: “Enjoyed the TNA presentation on Tuesday night on POP TV headlined by the unique and creative Final Deletion Match featuring brothers Matt and Jeff Hardy. This bout had some terrific production elements including no commentary and a ‘spot on’ music bed running throughout the presentation. This was fun to watch because it was original while still sticking to many of the old school values and principles that many of us enjoy. I applaud both Matt and Jeff for their creativity, their efforts and their desire to present a unique, pro wrestling bout that had a great story going in which provided viewers with significant anticipation and they then delivered a strong performance and outcome. The Final Deletion match was one of the most unique and entertaining concepts that I’ve seen in years. Plus Matt Hardy deserves praise for re-inventing himself as a classic villain for this presentation and Jeff, of course, is simply one of the great performers that our biz has seen in decades. I’m proud to call both brothers my friends and they were two of our greatest signees in WWE while I was working in talent relations.”

That's a helluva bump for popTV considering their reach.

Do you know who will no longer be pissing you the fuck off?

Watched the match. Since when did TNA turn into WMAC Masters?


(I have no idea if anyone will get that reference, but tossing it out there anyway.)

What about Wild West Showdown?

GD 07-07-2016 06:41 PM

I was talking to a fan who hasn't watched wrestling since the Attitude Era and he was aware of it*.

They got less people to watch than watched the first episodes on POP and they needed a dumb gimmick "match" to pull that off. It'll be back to 300k next week.

Lock Jaw 07-07-2016 07:34 PM

What manner of video was that supposed to be, Brother KIRO? It was not amusing in the least, and the picture being confined to the bottom right, over a larger blurred video was an affront to my vision.

My verdict is that video needs to be DAHLEETED

Simple Fan 07-07-2016 07:35 PM

I don't know I think people will want to see more of Broken Matt Hardy. Might not stay at 410,000 but I'd imagine it would be higher than average.

Lock Jaw 07-07-2016 07:39 PM

Let us not forget, though, that Matt Hardy is not the first wrestler who had a penchant for DELETION:

Did i just watch Jeff and Matt redo a whole storyline from their backyard days?

Simple Fan 07-07-2016 08:06 PM

No Matt just came up with the Broken Matt Hardy character out of nowhere after their I Quit match and has just recently became really committed to it.

Think that was done to throw off Youtube and you aren't the first of your kind to have your vision stricken by this setup Brother Jaw.

Why must you hate fun?

Seriously, it isn't like it is backyard kids trying to get some sort of notiriety. No, this is intentionally B-movie material. I keep expect to see silhouettes of Servo, Crow, and Mike/Joel. This is the logical eventuality of Lucha Underground vignettes. This self-deprecating bullshit is far and away worlds better than the UNINTENTIONALLY bad regular bullshit TNA regularly produces. That's part of what makes this work so well.
