Matt Hardy has chimed in on the chances of Sheamus heading to AEW after refusing to renewing his contract with WWE.
On his The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, Hardy criticized the current size of the AEW roster wondering if there was a place for Sheamus there.
“It’s [AEW] got a huge bloated roster that doesn’t use everybody. Could he add beneficial equity to AEW? I mean, he probably could. It depends on how they’re going to feature him. I don’t know how he would feel about he is featured, maybe it’s real good, but not something he’s happy with. Who knows? AEW is kind of a roll of the dice,” said Hardy.
Hardy believes that TNA might be a better home for the Celtic Warrior.
“With TNA it is a place where he could work but obviously we’re still…it’s budgeted. On this show we’ve talked about the budget. They have a budget that they have to stick very strictly to. I think if you’re willing to come do TNA, you could still be in a great spot and you could be highlighted on the show and you could help give other talents a rub,” he said.
