Matt Hardy says...
 

He is a pathetic fucking liar. Matt Hardy is not a world champion. Matt Hardy needs to get over himself.

I think I got to him. He said smart or sarcastic, but I used razor-sharp wit that probably cut him to the bone.

I get the feeling Matt and Jeff Hardy secretly fuck eachother

Yeah but one was before, one was after.

WE DID IT! A legit tag team becomes legit singles World Champions!


When a great tag team splits, one member usually goes on to be great while the other one struggles.


Since when is having the ECW title so great.






Too late :shifty:?

That Matt Hardy's point was that normally tag teams split up and one does well possibly culminating in a world title win and the other does badly. By identifying APA, you have proven his point as Bradshaw went onto bigger and better things claiming a world title whereas Ron Simmons didn't.

Yeah but not a world title.

Let the guy be excited for christ sakes. It's true that tag teams never achieve that, and it is true that the Hardys were a massive draw and sold a boatload of merchandise.
APA is a different example. For the most part, tag teams go the way of the Rockers or The Hart Foundation when they break up into singles careers.
Both Matt and Jeff have been successful on their own merit.
Ron Simmons was successful beforehand, and wound up in APA when there was nothing left for him. JBL won the WWE title, no denying that, but it wasn't really on his own merit.

I think the best argument against what he's saying is Edge and Christian. Since Matt won the ECW belt and Christian won the TNA(NWA) belt, I'd say they're about even with the Hardys.
That's fitting though, since what they accomplished as tag teams they did together.
My only hope is that Matt and Christian capture the WWE or World Heavyweight belt(s) at some point.
Still don't see the harm in a guy being excited for both himself and his brother, when everyone thought he'd go the way of Marty Jannetty and his brother would go the way of River Phoenix.

Oh shut the fuck up.

The ECW World Title is just as legit as all of the other titles being handed out nowadays.

Matt also mentioned him and Jeff holding world titles at the same time.

I love the "no detours" thing. Because losing your job, losing your push, getting handed the world and blowing it certainly wouldn't count as a detour.

But KooSH is right. The ECW is no less valid than The HHH and John Cena championships.

A dream come true-two blood brothers, two World Champs! A first ever in the WWE!

I wonder if they buy those pants in bulk or what.

They bought everything Hot Topic had at the close of the 90s, and they're still in business thanks to them

I really can't believe Jeff is WWE Champion though. I've envisioned it since 2000, but never fully believed it would happen until last year. Once he got suspended before Mania, I thought it would NEVER happen and now I'm shocked it has.

He's really the last guy left that I predicted/rooted for to become world champion that has or will. Dating back to the attitude era, I wanted to see a group of guys win the big one.
Jericho, Angle, Benoit, Eddie, Booker T, RVD, Edge and Jeff. Now, they all have. Even Orton and Cena, who I wanted to win the title in 2004 went on to do so.
Even CM Punk has. I guess Matt Hardy is really the only one I want to see become WWE champ now, that hasn't. Christian too.

I always like to see new and interesting champions, but I don't care nearly as much about whether or not Morrison, MVP, Kennedy, or whoever wins the belt as I did with Jeff and Edge, etc.

In a way, it's the end of a childhood wishlist, and as a result an era

Poor Matt Hardy, and his thinking the ECW Title is a legit World Title. He was kicking ass and taking names on Smackdown, and a real world title push could very well have been his in time... but then Jeff gets traded there, and Matt is demoted down to ECW.

Then I guess Taz, Raisin, Shane Douglas, Sandman, etc. were never legit World Champs?

Oh wait, they were because it was in the "Real" ECW, not this "fake" ECW stuff Vince McMahon is passing it off as!!!!

I would have thought it would have been the other way around, that Jeff would have been ECW champ and Matt WWE.

Makes Sense. After all, ECW was always a WWE tertiary title not treated as a world title by the owners.

Stop being cynical about our cynicism :(.

But it's like all of ECW seems to be on Raw or Smackdown at the same time and whoever the ECW champ is always gets beat by guys who can't get win the big one on the other 2 shows. I wish it wasn't, because Matt Hardy is much better than what they make the ECW title out to be.

I am happy for the Hardy brothers. Wait wasn't the E & C Connection a legit tag team to hold the world titles.

Not in the WWE.

Yeah, but they're not going to say Christian former TNA champ.

This might be kayfabe from MH anyways, get jealous of the attention Jeff is getting as WWE champion when he won his "big one" first and turn heel on him.

Champion Vs Champion, brother vs brother at Mania could be awesome and raise the ECW title. I hate to say it but I can't see Jeff holding it that long though, and that's not even taking a wellness violation into account.

I'd laugh if Jeff winning the title was just their way of them announcing Jeff's third Wellness Violation, thus getting fired. So that way they can say that they would even fire one of their own World Champions if they went three strikes.

JEFF HARDY! JEFF HARDY! JEFF HARDY!

So was Matt taking a shot at Edge and Christian? Or more specifically TNA? Weren't they both champs at the same time? Edge the WWE and Christian the NWA?

TNA title's on par with the ECW title, which is between the IC/US division and the WWE/WH division.

I'd say TNA's title is above the ECW Title and the IC/US stuff.
