Surprising returns make professional wrestling even more exciting, and WWE often brings back familiar faces for a quick pop.

However, none were as loud as when The Hardy Boyz returned to WWE at WrestleMania 33 after being away from the company for eight long years.

Diamond Dallas Page, who went into the Hall of Fame in 2017, was backstage before Jeff and Matt Hardy walked to the stage at WrestleMania 33.

On this week's episode of "The Bro Show", DDP recalled seeing Hardy Boyz at the Gorilla Position, and the WWE Legend wasted no time approaching the brothers so he could speak with them.

"I literally, I can't remember, I was there for something, maybe it was the Hall of Fame," said DDP. "I don't remember what the hell it was; I think it was the Hall of Fame thing. And when I saw them in the Gorilla booth, because, you know, Vince brings out all the Hall of Famers, and then yeah, you get your way. When I saw those guys, I just ran over and hugged them. It was like, 'Oh, this is great, you guys are going to pop this place crazy.' You know, that's an entrance. That's an entrance!" [11:50 - 12:22]
