Matt Hardy Reveals Scrapped Plans For 'Too Sweet Or Delete' Cinematic Match With The Young Bucks

Matt Hardy wanted ‘Too Sweet or Delete’ cinematic match with The Young Bucks

Matt Hardy is no stranger to cinematic matches, with the work of Broken Matt and the ‘Deletion’ matches across IMPACT, WWE, and AEW positioning Hardy at the forefront of the genre.

Hardy recently returned to the cinematic world with the Firm Deletion on May 5, and Hardy himself revealed on the Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast that there were plans for a ‘Too Sweet or Delete’ match against the Young Bucks in the works at one point:

“I think we were going to do somewhat of a program with The Young Bucks following that match (at AEW Double or Nothing 2022). Obviously, we were already advertised for that Triple Threat Ladder match which was gonna be for the titles which would have seen us most likely crowned as the AEW World Tag Team Champions, and we really wanted to get in the Too Sweet or Delete, like a cinematic match with The Young Bucks. That’s something both myself and Jeff (Hardy) and those guys had wanted to do as well so, I don’t know. Maybe that’s something that can happen down the road or whatever but it could have happened then, especially because they were very much heels and we were a bunch of babyfaces at that time. So I think you would have seen a couple more interactions with The Hardys and Young Bucks but I think ultimately, it was gonna be The Hardys working against some younger teams in the months following that if we would have won the World Tag Team Titles.

“Yeah, we still do (want to do a cinematic match with The Young Bucks). We’re still fans of it. I think it could go down as one of the greatest cinematic matches ever because, I feel like whenever I started talking with Matt and Nick and we start throwing around ideas and everybody’s being creative, it’s a great process and I think it would be one of the more entertaining cinematic matches ever had between two very established teams,” revealed Hardy.
