TNA Sale Reportedly “Closer” Than Ever, WWE and TNA Stars Clash Over Final Deletion and Wyatt Family WWE Raw Segment
In this episode of the WrestleTalk
News, the sale of TNA reportedly
“closer” than ever, and WWE & TNA
stars Matt Hardy, Reby Sky, Bray Wyatt
and Senor Benjamin have a heated
Twitter exchange over WWE’s
Compound Match allegedly copying
TNA’s Final Deletion segment…
WWE & TNA Stars Clash Over Final
Deletion!
Our top story today is the latest
development in the sale of TNA, but
first – Brother Nero! I knew you’d
come…
Last Tuesday saw TNA air the Final
Deletion match between Matt and Jeff
Hardy. For those of you that somehow
haven’t heard what that is – because
it’s been everywhere – it was a match
shot like a weirdly edited avant garde
movie. Many think this is what led
WWE to air their Compound Match
between The New Day and The Wyatt
Family on this week’s Raw – which was
also shot to mimic a grindhouse film.
It looks like Matt Hardy reckons WWE’s
Compound Match ripped off his own
Final Deletion segment, as he has
tweeted:
“I see the Great War has become inter-
promotional. I now have a myriad of
Brother Neros to DELETE!”
And Senor Benjamin – the gardener
from Final Deletion (don’t ask) –
chimed in:
“Thankyou for thinking of Senor
Benjamin. But Wyatt brothers cannot
afford Senor Benjamin. Beuena suerte
en…Something in Spanish.”
Enter the Eater of Worlds. WWE’s Bray
Wyatt responded to the Hardy Family’s
plagiarizing accusations on Twitter:
“Lest we forget, without Bray Wyatt
perhaps no one would’ve been Broken
in the first place. Go ahead LIE and say
it isn’t true. #I am the way.”
To which Matt Hardy responded,
issuing a challenge to the WWE star:
“Brother Nero Wyatt, I never asked for
my Broken condition. It’s a curse. You
have an open invite to my battlefield.”
It’s not over either. TNA have uploaded
a video called The Final Deletion: The
Aftermath to their YouTube account.
In the video Jeff wakes up in his house,
and Matt clears up his back garden
after the match – where he thanks the
dilapidated boat that saved him, and
named it Scarsgard.
Then they had a screening of The Final
Deletion at Matt’s house for his family
and friends, where he crowns his
young son Maxell the new King of the
Hardys.
Thank god they posted that. Now
everything makes sense.
