Matt Hardy released

Im not even a big Matt Hardy fan but a lot of his gripes with managment were exactly the same gripes as a lot of posters here have about misues of talent etc. Give the guy a break he is still part of one of the top 5 Tag Teams of all time.

Vince is the one writing his checks. Matt may be an "independant contractor", but he was signed exclusively and being paid exclusively by Vince and company.

Just because WWE mishandles talent means nothing. It's not an excuse. You don't bad mouth the company that's paying your bills.

If Vince gave two shits about how marketable the Hardys were, he would've tried to keep Jeff around and not buried Matt in the midcard. Vince already milked the shit out of the Hardy Boys brand. There's nothing left there.

And again, his gripes may have paralleled that of certain fans, but that doesn't allow nor excuse his internet antics of speaking out about it. I understand Matt wants to vent, but that's what friends and family are for. He shouldn't be venting publically for the internet to see. It's not professional, on any level.

And that top 5 tag team shit is a cheap excuse for his behavior.
