Current AEW Star and pro wrestling legend Matt Hardy recently took to an episode of his “Extreme Life of Matt Hardy” podcast, where he talked about a number of topics such as how if “The Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar were to go to All Elite Wrestling, then Lesnar’s gimmick would be similar to that of The Butcher and The Blade, which is sort of a hitman-style of character.
Matt Hardy said:
“I would say — the gimmick that The Butcher and The Blade put on TV, they say that they’re hitmen and guys who go out, whoever is willing to pay the biggest bucks, they’ll go work for that guy and take out the competition. That’s what Brock is. Brock knows his value, he knows his worth, so I guess Tony Khan would have to shell out the big bucks.”
Matt Hardy also talked about how Brock Lesnar has a deep allegiance to WWE Chairman Vince McMahon and Lesnar feels faithful to Vince because Vince has taken pretty good care of him, so AEW President Tony Khan would just have to shell out the big bucks if he would want Lesnar to jump ship from WWE.
Matt Hardy said:
“I would guess that Brock feels a bit of an allegiance to Vince, I feel like he feels faithful to Vince because he feel like Vince has taken pretty good care of him. I could see him being a WWE lifer, but if Tony was going to somehow procure Brock, he would just have to shell out the big bucks.”
