Jeff Hardy came out to rescue his brother on AEW Dynamite
Matt Hardy was in a confrontation with Andrade El Idolo inside the ring, which eventually led to Matt’s teammates betraying him. As everyone in the ring turned on Matt Hardy, Sting, and Darby Allin came to Matt’s rescue. However, the numbers game was still too much, and just at the right moment, Jeff Hardy’s music hit.
The AEW fans inside the arena went insane as Jeff ran to the ring to rescue his brother. With the help of Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy and the others were able to get the upper hand.
The scuffle ended with classic Hardy Boyz action as Matt delivered a Twist of Fate followed by Jeff Hardy’s signature Swanton Bomb. In the end, The Hardy Boyz stood toe to toe with Sting and Darby Allin, possibly hinting at a future tag team program.
