11 moments that I loved from Ultimate Deletion
After Bray Wyatt defeated Matt Hardy on an edition of Monday Night RAW last November, the transformation to 'Woken' Matt Hardy had begun. Since that point in November, "The Great War" has been waged between these two with no one getting a clear advantage in the feud.
Wyatt would defeat Hardy at the special edition Raw 25 in New York City; while Hardy would get his win back at the Elimination Chamber in February. With no end in sight for this Great War, Hardy challenged Wyatt to the Ultimate Deletion at the Hardy Compound, and Wyatt gladly accepted.
Prior to this, there were three battles at the Hardy Compound while at Impact Wrestling, The Final Deletion, Delete or Decay, and Total Nonstop Deletion. Each special provided a unique style of professional wrestling never before seen.
As for this week's Ultimate Deletion, it was everything I had hoped for and more. I completely enjoyed it and appears the WWE Universe did as well as Monday Night Raw finished hour three with over 3 million viewers.
This article will take a look at my favourite 11 moments from the Ultimate Deletion in chronological order. Let's start from the beginning...
#1 WOKEN Matt's hologram projecting from Vanguard 1
While it's not anything new or truly spectacular, I absolutely loved the fact that Vanguard 1 welcomed Bray Wyatt to the Hardy Compound once he entered the gates. Vanguard 1 would project an image of Matt Hardy who would tell Wyatt to "follow the music" to start the Ultimate Deletion.
I loved this moment because it told me that the Ultimate Deletion would have the same feel and style as the past segments that aired on Impact Wrestling. It put my mind at ease that I would instantly like the entire segment.
