Matt Hardy usually charges $1,500, plus hotel & transportation, plus another $300 for his wife Reby Sky for indie appearances. TNA reportedly paid him around double that for his appearance at the Impact taping in New York City this past week.
Matt is not signed to TNA or Ring of Honor, but he wants to continue working for both promotions, even though that might not be possible. It seems Matt is not looking to sign a contract to work as regular in any company. On a recent episode of Wrestling Observer Radio he said that he has made enough money from WWE that he’s financially set for life, but working indies allows him to earn a decent income & stay involved in wrestling.
