As noted, PWInsider reported that Impact Wrestling this past weekend sent a cease and desist to ROH and pay-per-view providers regarding the intellectual property of Matt Hardy’s “Broken” gimmick, which is why the “Broken” mannerisms were not used at this past Saturday’s ROH 15th Anniversary PPV.
Matt’s wife, Reby Hardy, lashed out at Impact Wrestling, noting that the company was “sending ‘spooky’ letters to cable providers” if they aired the Hardys and were trying “to screw ROH & ruin wrestling for fans.”
Hardy responded to his wife’s tweet, as seen below:
