The harshest critics of WWE often claim that Vince McMahon is out of touch with what modern wrestling fans want to see. However, according to former superstar Matt Hardy, the WWE chairman actually admitted to it following a match.
As quoted by Sportskeeda, Hardy appeared on Talk Is Jericho and recalled how McMahon told members of WWE’s production team that he would be “out of touch” if the fans enjoyed Hardy’s Ultimate Deletion match against Bray Wyatt on a 2018 episode of Monday Night Raw.
Hardy also explained that McMahon didn’t have the opportunity to watch the unique match until close to the show, which is why it was probably shown as it was intended to be. Upon seeing the footage, the chairman assumed that fans would tune out of the show when the match aired that night.
