Matt Hardy Comments on Arik Cannon's Criticism of Avery Jones

Matt Hardy recently discussed the remarks made by Arik Cannon regarding Avery Jones during an episode of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy Podcast. Cannon had criticized AJ Styles' son for not assisting with post-show responsibilities at a Game Changer Wrestling (GCW) event.

Hardy reflected on his past experiences with Cannon, acknowledging that while Cannon had occasionally offered help with event duties, publicly calling out Jones was not the most appropriate approach. He noted that GCW had contacted Avery and arranged for his travel, likely due to his connection as AJ Styles' son, and suggested that it would have been better for Cannon to address the matter privately after the match.

In response to the situation, several industry figures, including AJ Styles, commented on Cannon's statements. GCW also clarified that while they respect Cannon, his comments were personal and did not reflect the promotion's official stance.
