Matt took notice of the post and showered praise on The Bucks revealing the hard truth about them. Here is what Matt wrote on the 'X' social media platform:

"You’re correct, @SimonMiller316. Without the Young Bucks (and The Elite) AEW looks very, very different if it actually materializes. Besides being 1 of the greatest tag teams ever, they both have outstanding visions & understandings of the industry. I said they deserved their flowers before AEW, while I was at AEW & I will post-AEW, because it’s a hard truth."

Matt Hardy on his frustrations with booking in AEW

While speaking on his Extreme Life podcast recently, Matt Hardy The Hardy Boyz's momentum in AEW got halted due to Jeff Hardy going into trouble. However, Matt admitted how he was frustrated with their booking even after Jeff came back:

"After Jeff came back, we didn’t win any tag team matches for a year. It’s crazy. We’re The Hardys; we didn’t win a tag team match on TV in a year. And I mean, I brought this point up like, ‘What are we doing? Like we need — just to give us a win. We don’t need to be the champions, we don’t need to be undefeated. But just like, we need a win at some point.’ And it was just very frustrating."

Meanwhile, The Hardy Boyz have been reunited on TNA and the legendary tag team continues to carry the whole division of the company. Only time will tell what the future has in store for Matt and Jeff Hardy.
