For those wondering what Matt Hardy makes for indy bookings, it is
said that he charges around $1,500 as well as hotel and transportation. He also
charges another $300 for Reby Sky as she often comes to the events with him.
According to sources, TNA paid him nearly double that rate for his recent
appearances at the New York City TV tapings.
As of right now, Matt doesn’t have contracts with TNA or ROH and
is basically working on a “paid per appearance” deal. He wants to continue
working for both promotions but that may not be possible as both ROH and TNA
want their talents to be under contract if they are working multiple dates and
are involved in long-term storyline plans. During a recent interview, Hardy
noted that he’s not looking to sign a contract to work as a full-time wrestler
for any company right now as he enjoys the freedom of being able to take
bookings at his own leisure.
Hardy also said that he’s made enough money during his time in WWE
and is “set for life” financially. He noted that he still likes working the
indies as it allows him to continue making a decent income and also keeps him
involved with wrestling.
