Why are The Hardys allowed to use the iconic WWE theme song for The Hardy Boyz in All Elite Wrestling?
Matt Hardy answered this question during a recent appearance on Chris Jericho's "Talk Is Jericho" podcast.
During the interview, the AEW star explained why the promotion is allowed to use the famous WWE entrance music for the legendary tag-team, as well as how the AEW signing of Jeff Hardy came to fruition.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On his brother Jeff Hardy signing with AEW: “I feel like both of us wanted to end our career on a high note, and we wanted to both go out the same way as we came in, as a team together. We also felt AEW is the perfect place with Tony Khan and all the people from top to bottom. He treats legends and veterans, guys who have done a lot of successful things in the business, in the proper way. He utilizes them and he really optimizes their usage. So I knew if Jeff came here, it would really be a great opportunity to really try and cement ourselves as one of the best tag teams ever.”
On being able to use their iconic Hardy Boyz theme song from WWE in AEW: “It was in the Warner media library. It is a song that is just licensed and they didn’t lock it down. You can hear it in commercials and stuff. I knew we had that in our back pocket."
