Matt Hardy
With 'Total Nonstop Deletion,' my main goal is to give people the two hours of the most fun wrestling they have ever seen.
I am willing to do business and I'm willing to play ball with anyone, for I am very open-minded.
Since the beginning of time, evil has try to capture the magic of the Hardy Compound and the nucleus of its magic, Excalibur.
I'll never forget the reaction the WWE Universe gave me at 'WrestleMania 33' and my return - it was truly one of the greatest moments of my career.
Living in the age of information and technology, everything gets out so easy and so, so quickly.
I really want to be creative. I want to innovate. I want to be innovative, and I want to do things that are different.
I want to take chances. I want to kind of step out of my comfort zone, whatever that may be.
'Wrestlemania 34' was a great moment, winning that Andre the Giant Battle Royal, and I got to bring my creation - the Ultimate Deletion - to 'Raw' in the main event slot. Lot of cool stuff I've got to do.
There are many hard truths that we must face in life.
We must all learn how to separate reality from fantasy.
House Hardy - myself and Brother Nero - are pioneers. My style of booking during early independent bookings was very similar to what 'Ring of Honor' later became, which is what WWE later became.
Many people found 'Mattitude' absolutely delightful. As time went on, it was a constant evolution of change.
It is amazing that, whenever a ladder match is announced, people automatically think of the Hardys.
To know you're truly alive in wrestling, you have to constantly challenge yourself. You constantly have to do things that you're unsure you can do.
Whatever you have as a dream, don't let anyone tell you it can't happen; give it your all.
A McDonald's cheeseburger with no mustard is my guilty pleasure.
If I don't lift weights, I don't feel healthy.
A dream match, for me, would be to bring Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman to the Hardy compound and face them in the Beastly Deletion.
I like Batista very much, and we have been friends in the past.
My Destroyed Universe is very similar to that of the 'Guardians of the Galaxy.'
Personally, I am very glad that Jeremy Borash is here in WWE. He's got a great mind - a very creative person, a good friend of mine - and he just deserves to work here.
In 2009, I was on top of the world. It was truly the greatest year of my life, both personally and professionally. In 2010, it was the furthest thing from that. It was the most terrible year of my life, both personally and professionally.
I'm one of those people who want to give back and see other people do better.
I've always gotten along pretty well with people.
Your true friends will tell you what they believe is true.
A lot of fans don't accept me because I became a star in the WWE, but that adds credibility and equity to the TNA title.
People keep saying EC3 is the heart and soul of TNA: that he's this homegrown star, and he is going to be this big star. But fans don't understand that I'm the true star - I came off Vince McMahon's TV.
I was brought up poor, but I've earned every cent in my bank account.
TNA has had a lot of great periods - Hulk Hogan even came in, but I don't think he was beneficial to TNA. They spent a lot of money on him, but made a lot of mistakes. They should have saved that money for me.
TNA has been extraordinary to me, nothing but professional.
The fear that ultimately leads to hate is something we need to change, and I want to do whatever I can to make the world a better place.
I want to be one of the wrestlers that actually gave back, that actually cared about the industry. That's very important to me.
If I'm going somewhere to work, I'm there to work as hard as I can, put out the best product possible, and help any way I can along the way.
To have the canvas of something like an Impact Wrestling, something that had TV and be able to be a creative input guy and come up with stuff, I would love to, and I would be up for that challenge.
I just want to enjoy every moment and try to be present in the moment of whatever I'm doing at that time.
My goal is go out, try and be an entertainer, try to have the best match I can but be smart about it. If people are enjoying it, enjoying what I'm doing, then that's awesome because I'm enjoying what I'm doing, and I'm very passionate about what I'm doing.
Wrestling isn't easy. It's like a car crash. I wish they would give guys a few weeks off. I think guys need to take mandatory time off. I know it's tough when they need to promote the key names, but they need to keep guys healthy.
People make mistakes, and either you fall from your mistakes, or you learn from them.
At the end of the day, I'm a SmackDown Superstar.
My broken brilliance will shine a light in the darkness.
Love isn't a switch you can turn on and off. You just can't get rid of it, regardless of the circumstances, if you truly love someone.
The most important thing any broken individual can do is keep their chin up and keep moving forward.
Life is like a wrestling match: a lot of times, things are looking good, and then something happens, and you're fighting from underneath.
Father Time is the enemy none of us can beat.
When everything is stripped away in life, everybody is a human being that has problems, that has issues, has flaws, that isn't perfect. It doesn't make a difference what your sex is, what your sexual preference is, what your race is or what your background is. If you're a good person, you're OK in my book.
When the Seven Deities let me know what I must do to be complete again - even though I will be stronger and more than just a regular mortal man - I will fulfill that mission and become whole once more.
Things that I had created or morphed into, I almost became. I felt like a broken man having to go back to plain old Matt Hardy in many ways.
I must admit I have never told anyone this before, but Sister Abigail is older than my essence.
Honestly, it's such a personal issue, I really don't think my feud with Edge will ever end. It's almost comparable to the Bret Hart/Shawn Michaels thing. There is just such legit hatred between the two guys.
If it wasn't for the Internet, I might never have left WWE. Then again, if it wasn't for the Internet, I probably wouldn't have been brought back.
