Matt Hardy shares emotional message after Hardy Boyz tribute to Bray Wyatt

Matt Hardy sent a message after he and Jeff Hardy lost the WWE NXT Tag Team Championships at Halloween Havoc 2025. At the show, The Hardy Boyz paid their tribute to Bray Wyatt.

The Hardy Boyz defeated DarkState (Dion Lennox and Osiris Griffin) in a Winners Take All match to win the NXT Tag Team Championship at NXT vs. TNA Showdown on October 7. They retained their championship against Team 3D at Bound for Glory 2025.

While Matt and Jeff did lose the NXT Tag Team Championships back to the DarkState, their tributes to Wyatt caught the attention of fans. On X, Matt confirmed that he and his brother are far from stepping away from the sport and sent an emotional message to the former Universal Champion.

"Thank you for having our back tonight at @WWENXT #HalloweenHavoc, Arizona! You guys & gals were WONDERFUL! We’re so sorry we weren’t able to retain the #WWENXT Tag Titles. The State of Dark swarm was relentless & never-ending tonight. Our journey is nowhere near over, myself & Brother Nero have SO much left to do. Very happy we could pay homage to Bray tonight - We love you & miss you, Windham." wrote Matt.

"Thank you to all the dieHARDYs that have always believed in me & Jeff. YOU FUEL US. #WWE #WWENXT,"

The Hardy Boyz are still the reigning TNA World Tag Team Champions. While they are regulars on TNA programming, it remains to be seen if they will continue appearing on WWE TV.
