AEW star Matt Hardy commented on the WWE creative team’s “Let It Play Out” approach becoming a joke in the pro wrestling world and resulting in countless memes on the newest episode of his “The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy” podcast.
In addition, Hardy expressed his dissatisfaction with the WWE‘s incessant “start and stop” pushes.
Matt Hardy said, “I feel like with WWE if you hear that expression, ‘Let it play out,’ they’ve kind of burned their trust with their consumers, with their fans. I just don’t think people trust them anymore. Because there have been so many times that people were very patient, and waited for it to play out, but it just never did. So I think they’ve just kind of lost their trust with wrestling fans when it comes to that.”
Matt Hardy said. “I mean, it’s become like a meme now, right? People say it when they know it’s gonna be bad, you know? ‘Don’t worry, just let it play out. Haha!’ It really has become a meme.”

The superstars at some point got so frustrated with the Creative team but they just said to keep trusting them as it is for their own benefit.
Matt Hardy added, “I mean, you know, that was one of those things to where they just say, ‘Trust us, trust this, let it play out.’ I know, that’s a famous statement on the internet now, ‘let it play out.’ It’s just one of those things, it would become very frustrating, especially when you get to go out and you get to do you, and you make this magic happen, you’re getting these insane crowd reactions, and then you kind of reeled back, and then you get very frustrated, especially if they don’t portray you in the way the crowd wants to see you portrayed as.”
