Are The Hardys Staying In TNA? Conflicting Reports Emerge

Earlier this week, media reports claimed that The Hardys were yet to sign a new deal with TNA.

Matt & Jeff Hardy currently serve as the company’s World Tag Team Champions in their fourth reign, having held the gold for over 150 days.

The veterans being out of a contract while holding the titles is a problem, raising practical, legal, and storyline-related concerns.

The reports stated that the promotion was looking to sign a long-term deal and that negotiations were ongoing.

Amid the hullabaloo, Matt Hardy quashed the rumors while promoting an upcoming podcast appearance, claiming that The Hardys had re-signed with TNA for a while.

This chat was a fun dive into myself & @JEFFHARDYBRAND’s brotherly relationship as well as a discussion about the Hardys’ effect on
@ThisIsTNA’s business at 44:40.. Thanks for a very compelling combo, @MikeGilbert311.

BTW, we’ve been re-signed for a while. Merry Christmas, guys!

TNA Sources Claim Negotiations Are In Progress With The Hardys

Matt Hardy’s claim about signing a new TNA deal seemingly surprised the company’s higher-ups.

Earlier, TNA President Carlos Silva had expressed his desire to keep The Hardys in TNA “for years to come.”

Despite not having allegedly re-signed, the siblings are still in TNA’s plans for the future.

Come January 15, the brand is set to debut on AMC, which is comparatively a bigger network than AXS TV, its current broadcast partner.
