Matt Hardy suggests former WWE writer should lead TNA creative
TNA has been going through a lot over the last week, with many on-screen and behind-the-scenes names leaving the company. Speaking on The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, TNA star Matt Hardy would suggest a WWE writer to bring on board to lead TNA creative going forward.
“I would bring in Nick [Manfredini], who worked with myself and Bray [Wyatt] back in WWE, [and] who was a writer there already. Because I felt like he was really layered in the way he could do stuff.
“He knew how to treat us as special or as different. If there’s something in a supernatural aspect you’re trying to get out of these two characters, he knew how to utilize them. Where he also was very good at utilizing characters who were just legit wrestlers, who just go in the ring and wrestle.”

Hardy would also suggest that he himself would be interested in helping with TNA creative, saying “I think I could help with that (creative). I feel a little torn and split, because I am still, obviously with Jeff [Hardy]…I think they look at us as the top draws of TNA, so that makes it a little trickier too. But I mean, when it’s all said and done, I would like to work on other people’s stuff and try to do what I could to maximize everything like that. I do know, from what I’ve heard, there is someone’s going to be coming in very soon, someone new, and it should help things out as well.”
