The Hardy Boyz — Matt and Jeff Hardy — officially reunited on last week’s AEW Dynamite when Jeff made his surprise debut and saved Matt from the attacking AHFO faction. It was announced moments later that Jeff had signed with the company, then the pair popped up in full gear on last Friday’s edition of AEW Rampage. It looks like AEW isn’t wasting anytime in getting the pair in the ring together as it was announced on Wednesday morning that they’ll be facing Matt’s former proteges, Private Party, at AEW Dynamite: St. Patrick’s Day Slam.
