Matt Hardy loves what he saw at AEW Revolution.
Sting had the final match of his career at AEW Revolution when he teamed up for the last time with Darby Allin to battle the Young Bucks in the main event in a tornado tag for the World Tag Team Championships, the match would end with Sting getting the last laugh and win for his team to remain undefeated and the champion.
While discussing the match on The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, this is what Matt Hardy himself had to say about Sting and how the Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) did the right thing at the end of the day for both the Icon and the business.
“I loved it. I loved every bit of it. More than anything, I’m happy for Sting. I’m happy Sting got the chance to tell the story in a correct fashion, he was treated with respect, he was treated with honor, and he was able to go out on his own note, which was fantastic. I loved everything about it. It’s no secret, it’s funny, the internet nobodies, the FIs, they love to talk about how I kiss ass with the Young Bucks. The Young Bucks are dear friends of mine. Two of my closest friends in the business. I love them to death. They kick ass. Sting is the person who demanded to work with the Young Bucks. That’s who he chose to work with. This wasn’t the Young Bucks doing some sort of flex of power. This was Sting demanding to work with the Young Bucks. That’s who he wanted to work with because he realized how good they are and how much they would bust their ass and how they would tell a good story, and that’s what he’s all about, telling the story. The story that was told during this whole run, we have Sting, who’s undefeated, and you don’t know if he’s doing to win and leave as the tag team champion and retire as the tag team champion, or will he lose and do the thing that they always did in the business. When it’s time for you to step away, you put somebody else over. That would have certainly been a possibility. So it was very unpredictable. I loved that fact. I loved the fact that, it’s a polarizing thing, the thing that Darby did, where he jumped out onto the sheet of glass and the chairs, I think that spot was appropriate in many ways. I’m not saying it’s something I would have specifically have done, but I understand Darby. I know how he thinks, and he is the true definition of what the Hardy Boys were supposed to be. He is a total adrenaline junkie that will just keep upping and upping and upping and upping the bar and doing something more crazy. He’s a true daredevil, almost masochistic in some ways,” Hardy said.
Hardy later on would say. They just did the right thing for business in general. They did the right thing for Sting. They just worked. At the end of the day, they got themselves over in that match because they were just the ultimate and consummate professionals in that match,”
The Young Bucks and Kazuchika Okada are set to battle Penta El Zero Miedo, PAC, and Eddie Kingston at AEW Dynamite, Big Business.
