Sharon and Matt’s History
Matt’s (Roger Howarth) reign of terror against Sharon (Sharon Case) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) first began in 1994. Matt and Nick were engaged in a fierce rivalry over Sharon, who chose Nick. An infuriated Matt then raped Sharon and later lied about Nick shooting him.
After Matt left in 1996, Sharon and Nick married. But the couple’s happy life was interrupted by Matt’s return in 2000. With a new name and new face, Matt wasted no time in terrorizing the couple.
Matt framed Nick for selling drugs and tried once again to rape Sharon, however his plan was thwarted by Victor (Eric Braeden). When Matt fled town, he was injured in a car crash. While in the hospital, Nick confronted him, leading Matt to remove his breathing tube and unsuccessfully try to frame Nick for murder.
However, Matt made a surprising recovery and later turned up in LA as Mitch Bacall. When Mitch was later revealed to be Matt, he began seeking revenge against The Newmans. Matt’s main target was Sharon and Nick’s son, Noah (Luca Adams), who had an affair with Sienna (Tamara Braun).
The Newmans have tried everything to take down Matt, but their attempts are futile. With Matt living it up in Vegas, it seems he’s going to get away with his crimes. Or will he?
One Final Showdown
Nick’s taken it upon himself to be the protector of the family. Upon getting word that Matt’s in Vegas, Nick and Adam (Mark Grossman) set out to capture him. Unfortunately, things haven’t gone as planned.
With Nick and Adam in danger, Sharon’s decided to go to Vegas. Since Nick’s plan failed, it might be up to Sharon to finish the job, something fans think should’ve happened from the start.
On a soap opera forum, fans believe Sharon is the perfect choice to take down Matt. “Sharon is a much stronger and fiercer woman. She has too much anger for him because he has hurt not only her, but her family.”
“Matt will definitely be in for a big fight if he tried to come for Sharon. She is definitely a lot stronger these days and has been through so much which has made her even stronger,” one viewer replied.
Given Sharon and Matt’s history, she’s the obvious choice if anyone is going to take him down once and for all. As seen in the past with Cameron (Linden Ashby), Sharon isn’t afraid to fight when it comes to protecting her family.
Has Matt finally met his match in the new, stronger Sharon?
