Matt and Jeff Hardy were recently interviewed by Josh Lawless of the SportsBible. The duo spoke in detail on a wide variety of topics. One of the most intriguing parts was when they spoke about their surprise return at Wrestlemania 33.

Matt says that their return was straight out of a storybook for the brother’s, who had been gone from WWE for the past several years.
“To return in that capacity on the biggest Wrestlemania that there’s ever been, and to be in a ladder match, which is our speciality – we’re obviously one of the pioneers of the ladder match, especially a tag team ladder match – the first deal that ever happened was us and Edge and Christian in a tag team environment – to return and have all the stars align, and then on top of everything, win the tag team titles it was truly amazing and almost like the beginning of a storybook tale in some ways as we have this next run, and in some ways too it was like the happy ending that so many WWE fans had waited for such a long time – we finally came back home and it felt like that to us.”
Matt also shared their first face-to-face interaction with Vince McMahon, just moments before they came to the ring:
“It was cool, it was very quick – the first time we saw him [Vince] physically face-to-face was in ‘Gorilla Position’ right before we went out and it was ‘Hey, good to have you home, hug, hug’ and then it was out to the ring to go and partake in a ladder match.”

Jeff would go on to say that there has been an overwhelming feeling of ‘welcome home’ from everyone that works backstage of WWE.
