Jeff Hardy became World Champion. More than once. This statement is invalid.

Hall seems to be one of those guys that was in the right guy in the right place at almost the right time in WWE. Hall really had all the tools: a marketable look/gimmick, decent ringwork, and goddamn charisma for days. Remember, this is the company that pushed Luger hardcore, and he didn't have half the "it" factor of connecting to the crowd that Hall did, even with the forced Lex Express business.

It could be as simple as Vince didn't really see him as "that guy" at the time and just overlooked him, as he's been noted to do with various others that seem to be overqualified for the top spot.

Didn't know Vince McMahon posted on here under the name "Tom Guycott".

In Jeff's defense, I'd like to point out that he only became World Champion after he'd been clean for a year.
