The key to everything that Broken Matt Hardy has done has been telling a story.  This is exactly what the chaotic match did as the Hardys wanted to be known as the best at the same time as the New Day Break Demolition’s championship record.  It was a risk that was worth taking by TNA to produce a show that took this much time and effort.  This continues to have me saying that TNA has had the best weekly wrestling show in 2016.
