Hardy admits that he is fully content retiring under the AEW Banner but he does feel a sense of loyalty to WWE and is excited about the changes that Triple H will make at the helm of creative.

"I don't know. In all honesty, I can see myself retiring with AEW, I love being here. I love the family feel that it has and I love just the lack of horseshit and bullshit, you know, it's pretty much straightforward," said Matt. "Tony [Khan] is really good with working with people and remembering [wrestlers are] human beings, and especially people that have families and allowing them to take time off and address issues that there may be. So he's great with that. He works around people's schedules and whatnot. So I love AEW, and I'm very cool with spending the rest of my career in AEW

"With that being said, I love WWE as well," Matt Hardy continued. "I think it's a big positive that Triple H has taken over and has been in charge. I would imagine it's going to continue to change as it evolves over the next few years with him at the helm."
