Hair

Perhaps the most noticeable thing about Matt Hardy is his long brown hair. If you do not have long hair, you will have to purchase a dark brown wig. This wig must have straight hair that goes past your shoulders and that can fall into your eyes. Hardy often wears his hair in a ponytail while wrestling, but lets it come undone for effect if getting badly beaten up or preparing to perform his signature moves from above the ropes.
Upper Body

The Hardy Brothers have simpler costumes than many professional wrestling characters. Matt Hardy wears tight shirts, often in black or white, ranging from tank tops to long-sleeved shirts. His shirts often have graphics on them such as skulls, outlines of tribal tattoos, his signature phrase "Stronger Than Death" and the Hardy Brother symbol that represented him and his brother. Most importantly, Matt Hardy wears a ball chain choker necklace and matching bracelet.

Lower Body

To stay with his punk rock theme, Matt Hardy wears wide-leg black jeans and a studded belt. For special matches, the Hardy brothers often choose animal print pants, particularly leopard print. If you want to wear black pants, consider purchasing a fake wrestling championship belt. Wear the belt across your shoulder or at your waist.
Props

A number of props and costume details can help you seal the deal. Matt Hardy has chin-strap-style facial hair and a dimple in his chin that you could duplicate with makeup.
