REVISITED: A Tour Through Broken Matt Hardy's Exotic Menagerie of Reincarnated Historical Luminaries

Editor's note: In honor of Napoleon the Goldish debuting on Raw, I thought we'd run this article back that originally published August 29, 2016. Enjoy!

The greatest genius of our time or any other, Broken Matt Hardy, has a personal zoo. This zoo is stocked with many impressive exotic species, but that is not what makes it special.

Oh no.

What makes it special is that all of the animals in this zoo are actually reincarnated historical figures of repute and esteem.

We assume.

Allow us to explain.

Last Thursday, Matt Hardy tweeted this photo:

Here is what we were able to glean from this Tweet.

  1. Matt Hardy has a personal zoo.
  2. That zoo contains a beloved giraffe.
  3. Said giraffe's vessel contains the soul of George Washington, our nation's first president.

Those are the facts as we see them.

Extrapolating from those facts, it only stands to reason that there are other animals in this personal zoo, as a zoo with only one giraffe does not actually connote a "zoo" and more like "a pet giraffe."

And if there are other animals in the zoo, it only stands to reason that they, too, are the vessels which contain the souls of other various historical dignitaries of note.

So we did some digging, and were able to obtain some exclusive photos of the other animals in Broken Matt Hardy's Personal Zoo.

And now, Fightful.com proudly presents:
