On Matt Hardy potentially bringing his “Broken Universe” to WWE:
EB: I don’t think it’s the grittiness of the presentation that’s going to create a conflict between Matt and WWE. I believe it’s the uniqueness. It’s a very, very narrow audience that digs that characterization. I know it’s an important one but WWE plays broad. They play main stream. They play big box. They are not indie. They are Macy’s. They are not your local corner store. The “Broken” Matt Hardy character… it’s got that indie vibe to it. I think that’s where the conflict comes.
