“It Was My Fault” – AEW Star Admits Having Unnecessary Heat With the Undertaker 18 Years Back

WWE legend and Hall of Famer The Undertaker has retired from professional wrestling. But the gossip around him never lets his presence fade away.

And the same happened recently when an AEW star remembered his days at WWE.

Recently, Matt Hardy talked about a moment in his podcast ‘Extreme Life of Matt Hardy’ when he ended up rubbing The Phenom wrongly, because of his “dumb move”. He said that he acted dumb as he was frustrated but learned a great lesson from it.

The story behind Matt Hardy’s heat with The Undertaker

The story goes back to 2005, at the Survivor Series pay-per-view of that year. The Undertaker made his shocking return and attacked former WWE champion Randy Orton. The segment ended up in a huge in-ring brawl, during which Matt Hardy made his comeback. However, he didn’t react how he was supposed to and it made The Undertaker angry. The reason behind Hardy’s inappropriate behavior was his frustration with the creatives.

Recalling the moment, Matt said, “We went out there, we did that and I was planning on powdering out. But there was a part of me, that was just so frustrated. And once again it was my fault, I will be accountable for it. Just when Taker came out I was like laying on the ropes. And I didn’t react to him like I should have.

He further added, “Looking back, I was like what a dumb move that was and I was just like mad because I didn’t get my spot, once again, which was very dumb. It was a great lesson for me to learn. Like if you are going to do anything, go all in on it.”
