The Hardys were just announced as a surprise fourth team in the Raw Tag Team Championship ladder match at WrestleMania, and defeated Gallows and Anderson, Enzo and Cass, and Sheamus and Cesaro to become the NEW WWE Raw Tag Team Champions.
They were introduced as “The Hardy Boyz” and came out with their old Hardy Boyz WWE theme. They didn’t speak, Jeff Hardy did not have his contacts, but Matt Hardy did the “delete” motion several times (along with the crowd). Michael Cole also said “things are about to be broken” when they first came out. (Update: They were in full “Broken” character in a WWE Snapchat video. See the bottom of this post.)
The crowd “marked out” and it was an amazing WrestleMania moment. The Hardys were also just in a brutal ladder match against the Young Bucks at ROH Supercard of Honor last night.

Update:
WWE posted this on their Snapchat…
Jeff: The Club’s tag team title reign is now obsolete…
Matt: Because the Hardys have DELETED it.
Update 2
WWE posted this video on YouTube, with the Hardys somewhat in character but also kinda toning it down until Matt says “DELETE” at the end.
This video, with the Hardys being “real” and not in character, was recorded before the match:
