That was on RAW, when the WWE were being cocks about Matt Hardy.
Seriously, the guy could have been
it in 2005. People were making his hand signal in my school and everything. Instead they turned him into a cockwipe they only signed because they didn't want him in TNA or ROH.
Things the WWE did wrong with Edge/Hardy:
* When Matt Hardy was officially re-signed by Vince McMahon, he shook his hand and thanked him. What the fuck? When Vince was all "I do right by the people," Matt should have been all "Fuck you! If you always listened to the fans you wouldn't have fired me in the first place! Plus you would have disappeared off television a long time ago."
* Edge made Matt Hardy his bitch. Yeah, I know they were going for a real fight feel between these two at Summerslam, and I agree, Hardy shouldn't have gotten the win that early in the feud, but Matt needing the match to be stopped made him look like a pussy. Hardy should have fucked up Edge and getting himself disqualified. Edge wins, and it looks like there is some big conspiracy against Matt to protect Edge, positing the fans in his corner more.
Anyway, I'm not too sure if it will happen, but Hardy has been on a damn fine role recently. He's a great worker, JBL makes him out to be main event material, and he just beat Mr. Kennedy (the man who Edge defeating made it possible for him to challenge for the World Heavyweight Title, so Hardy could use the same excuse just to get Edge's attention).
Edge will get a chance to show off his "SmackDown! Six" side now that he's back on the blue brand, so some fun matches would likely take place between him and Hardy. Random idea: Maybe Edge could even start up his own stable with Chavo Guerrero (who he respects from their early SmackDown! days), Gregory Helms (who shares Edge's dislike for Matt) and Mark Henry (hired muscle)? Edge, Guerrero, Helms and Henry would at least be a colourful little gathering. Chavo and Helms could exchange the World Tag Team Championship with The Hardys a few times, and Jeff could become a part of the cruiserweight division. It could work.
I doubt Matt Hardy would actually win the World Heavyweight Title in his program with Edge, but it is all exposure. Matt Hardy
can be a main eventer. When he's not trying to be tough on the mic, and rather is an arrogant cock (see his Mattitude days), Hardy can be really enjoyable in the promo department. His attire and theme music are fine.
So yeah, if I were booking, Edge vs. Matt Hardy at Judgment Day for the World Heavyweight Championship.
