Matt Hardy talks the latest QR code tease in WWE.
The QR code flashed on the screen during a bout between Shawn Spears and Ridge Holland during the April 30 edition of WWE NXT. When scanned, the QR code led to another cryptic video that featured messages like "They were broken", "I accepted them", and "We can be family".
Many fans centered out the word broken in the promo, noting that it could be referencing Matt Hardy. Hardy went on to fuel these rumors himself, as he took to social media and posted a photo of the QR code.
On the latest edition of the 'The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy' podcast, Hardy was asked about the tease.
“I did catch that. Interesting, very very interesting. I have a very long and storied history with Windham Rotunda, Bray Wyatt, so I think it’s cool how the word broken somehow slipped in there. Who knows, anything can happen in the extreme life of Matt Hardy.”
Hardy went on to praise the vignettes, noting that he is a big fan of bonus/supplementary content.
“I do gotta tell you, I love these vignettes and the Uncle Howdy stuff. Back to the white rabbit, this bonus, supplementary content that you can check out like you’re trying to figure out a mystery. This is something else too, my wife — let me think how to phrase this the right way. Being aware that these things were going to happen, I smartened my wife up to them a little bit and showed her the QR and she watched it and she’s like, ‘Oh my god this is so cool, it’s like trying to figure out a mystery almost like an escape room.’ It was cool and ironic how that happened to air on NXT.”
In a recent Q&A, Hardy revealed that he is still in talks with AEW despite recently making his return to TNA. Learn more here.
