About Matt Hardy
Matthew Moore Hardy (born September 23, 1974) is an American professional wrestler and actor. He is signed to Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), where he is a five-time and current TNA World Tag Team Champion with brother Jeff. He is also known for his tenures with WWE and All Elite Wrestling (AEW). Hardy gained prominence in the late 1990s and early 2000s as one-half of The Hardy Boyz alongside his brother Jeff Hardy. The duo became one of the most successful and influential tag teams in professional wrestling history. They played a pivotal role in popularizing Tables, Ladders, and Chairs (TLC) matches during the Attitude Era, and were key figures in the resurgence of WWE’s tag team division. Together, they have held a combined 15 world tag team championships. In addition to his tag team accomplishments, Hardy has enjoyed a successful singles career. In the early 2000s, he debuted the "Version 1" character, which received critical acclaim and was named Best Gimmick by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter in 2003. In 2016, Hardy introduced the "Broken" character during his time in TNA Impact Wrestling, which was similarly praised for its originality and was also awarded Best Gimmick. The character became a cultural phenomenon in wrestling and was later renamed to "Woken" Matt Hardy upon his return to WWE. Throughout his singles career, Hardy has held the ECW Championship, two TNA World Heavyweight Championships, the United States Championship, Hardcore Championship, European Championship, and Cruiserweight Championship. Across major wrestling organisations, Matt Hardy is a three-time world champion. Hardy has remained a prominent figure in the wrestling industry across four decades, noted for his adaptability, character work, and creative contributions both in and out of the ring. In 1997, Matt and Jeff created their own wrestling promotion, The Organization of Modern Extreme Grappling Arts (frequently abbreviated to OMEGA Championship Wrestling, or simply OMEGA), in which Matt competed under the name High Voltage. He also appears in partner promotion WWE on its NXT brand, where he is a former one-time NXT Tag Team Champion.
