The Hardy Boyz Preparing for Lawsuit Against Anthem Sports?
As previously reported, Ed Nordholm mentioned during an interview with Sports Illustrated that he will not continue negotiations with The Hardy Boyz over the “BROKEN” gimmick and he doesn’t plan to open a new dialogue with them.
“I’ve stopped thinking about this. We have a show to put on, and a company and a brand. We’ve got things on our plate that are more important than sorting out the “Broken Brilliance.” I made a genuine effort to resolve something to benefit the Hardys as a goodwill gesture to Matt. It didn’t reach a conclusion and we’re moving on. We’re not going back to it, I’m not interested in opening a new dialogue, I’m not interested in opening another conversation about it. We made our best effort, it didn’t happen, and I’m not going to negotiate all over again.”
According to PWInsider, all signs are pointing that The Hardy Boyz are preparing for a lawsuit against Anthem Sports over the ownership of the gimmick. We will keep you posted if we receive any more details.
CM Punk Advertised for SmackDown Live
Several of our readers have sent word that CM Punk was being advertised this week for the Hulu version of SmackDown Live. You can check out a screen shot that reader Erik Glenn sent in:
It’s obvious CM Punk isn’t appearing on the episode as he hasn’t returned to the company. Someone at Hulu screwed up and somehow this happened.
At last word Punk was under contract to UFC and has voiced in several interviews that he has no plans to return to WWE anytime in the near future.
