Matt Hardy has weighed in on the uncertainty surrounding the WrestleMania card following reports of Bron Breakker’s hernia surgery. With Breakker’s status for the event in question, speculation has turned to how WWE will utilize Seth Rollins if their planned match cannot take place.
Speaking on The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, Hardy argued that Rollins should be included in the event regardless of his in-ring status due to his star power.
“It’s wild…..Seth was on such a good role when all that stuff happened. Bron Breakker was starting to get on a roll, too. And it’s made everything so wonky in their continuity of the story, which is unfortunate. Man, it just considering how young he is, if it wasn’t a terrible hernia situation, I mean, I might could even see them using this to kind of play it up a little bit like maybe he’s not going to be there, but then maybe he is still there.”
Matt continued, “I think I would have Seth there in some capacity, because he’s just such a big star, and I think you want to make that event as star-studded as possible. I mean, I would imagine now too, you would agree, whenever he got taken out of the Royal Rumble, they would put all that heat on Seth, right? That. Would be Seth, supposedly, is how they would book that long term,” Hardy said.
‘Some Sort Of Angle’
When asked specifically if he would hold Rollins off the show if Breakker could not compete, Hardy clarified his stance, emphasizing that Rollins’ presence alone adds value to the show.
“I should have spoke more specifically, just because I would just have Seth appear in some capacity, even if it’s not to wrestle, you know what I mean, I would have him there to do some sort of angle or story. He’s such a big star, I think having his presence on Mania helps out.”
