Edge and Christian were recently interviewed by Forbes. They were promoting their new podcast, titled: ‘E&C’s Pod of Awesomeness’. One of the most interesting parts of the interview was when they were asked about Matt and Jeff Hardy and their current ‘Broken’ gimmick.

Edge and Christian have a long history (to say the least) with the Hardy Boyz and have wrestled them on multiple occasions over the years. With current rumors circulating that they could be WWE bound very soon, they were asked if they think the gimmick could work in WWE.
Here is what Edge had to say:
“Crazier things have worked on that mainstream of scale”

Christian praised Matt and Jeff Hardy for reinventing themselves, even when they don’t have to:
“It’s all about reinventing yourself. You could probably be The Hardy Boyz, stick your two fingers up, make that ride from town to town and hope that people follow along with that nostalgia. Instead, they’ve taken the bull by the horns and reinvented themselves and stayed current, stayed fresh and keep people talking, and that’s what it’s all about.”

Edge agreed that reinvention is the key to longevity and has enjoyed the ‘Broken’ gimmick from what he has seen:
“Matt and Jeff are smart enough, particularly Matt — who is very hands-on with all of the incarnations of his character — to try stuff. I haven’t seen a whole lot of it, I’ve seen a couple of things and I thought it was hilarious and awesome.”
