Matt Hardy is officially a face now

Quote:
Matt Hardy posted the following blog on the WWE Universe website this morning:

There's much more to this story than you'll ever know.. for now. I know several people are doubting my sincerity, and some people are ecstatic that Jeff and I seem to be back on good terms. I know I have a lot of explaining and convincing to do in the very near future. And I will be happy to open up and tell everyone the "REAL" story behind our sibling rivalry. The last year of my life is movie-worthy. Buckle up and get ready for the ride, because as of yesterday, The Hardys are back in business!

Matt Hardy
I really hope he enters the Heavyweight title scenario.

Yeah I'm not totally convinced by this yet. Makes no sense to suddenly have Matt Hardy turn face (of course Smackdown is lacking in the faces department but still)

They have to stay together until Edge comes back so we can have Hardys vs E&C at least once more.

I guess they can totally challenge the Tag Team Champs since there is no brand restriction for the Tag Team Division. I would mark the fuck out if they came out to their old "You think you know me" theme.

Proper booking can easily make it work. If they were to book him like they were booking him around the time of the amazing MVP feud over the US Title where he would just come out every week on Smackdown and constantly get W's in the match of the night, kinda what Morrison does now, it could work.

Do you mean skill-wise or look/realistic-wise?

Like... Great Khali "not world championship material" or Rey Mysterio "not world championship material"?

lol nobody said Khali was a good choice for the world championship and I doubt Rey will ever get a 2nd reign. Matt's just not that interesting. Solid performer, but Matt as world champ I don't think would make people want to watch. He's always been looked at as "Jeff's less exciting brother".

I've never felt Matt was really that good and quite frankly he is even more terrible than Jeff on the mic on top of that he comes accross way to phony. Heck was shocked that he even became ECW champion as I think the only time he was actually a little entertaining was when he was V1 around the time he was feuding with Rey. I'm sure this whole thing is a swerve and he will end up laughing in Jeff's face when he screws him over at Summerslam cuz we all know he wants Jeff for himself.

Matt during the MVP feud was a million times more entertaining and fun to watch promo-wise than Jeff has ever been.

I feel like Matt as world champ (Again, assuming he is booked correctly) would have a nice old school face as champ feel to it.

I'm glad Matt Hardy is a face again. He can play a heel character well, but he got so run off the rails on RAW. He should have moved up to the main event after WrestleMania, but instead they put him in the US Title scene, despite Hardy already having won the US Title and ECW Championship before. Why was the dude afraid to ask for more? Especially as a heel.

Michael Hayes loves The Hardys, so Matt is more likely to be booked to his optimum use on SmackDown! (as every talent seems to). With Jeff likely leaving the company, the WWE is wise to turn Matt face, and really keep the "Hardy Party" going -- if just for merchandise sales. Matthew Moore has a great connection to the crowds, either as a face or a heel, but the only reason he really turned heel was to feud with Jeff, and because he had no where to really serve as a face. Now it looks like he may get a main event face run, which is really cool for a man I've always considered the better Hardy brother.

What intrigues me about The Hardys, is the way they seem to jockey for "most valuable" position. Jeff Hardy was the more insane one, and then became more over. Then Matt won the European Title and hooked up with Lita, and it seemed the spotlight was more on him. Then Jeff defeated Triple H for the IC Championship and then there was the brand split, where Jeff got to challenge The Undertaker for the Undisputed Title in that Ladder Match. Then there was Mattitude and Jeff left the company. Then Jeff came back and Edge slept with Lita and Matt was fired. Then Matt came back as the most over thing ever that the WWE never capitalised on. Then Jeff started his upwards momentum and won the WWE Championship. Then Matt turned heel and Jeff won the World Heavyweight Title two times. Now Matt is back as a face, and Jeff is leaving the company.

That paragraph is sort of a mess, and I can't be fucked making things more clear, but I've found myself often saying "Wow, Jeff is so far ahead of Matt right now in storylines," and then Matt will do something that makes me care about him more (like saving Jeff's ass on SmackDown! and looking like a beast). Then I wonder "How will Jeff catch up to Matt?" and he goes and wins a World Championship or something.

I've learned you can't count either Hardy out. I also think that turning Matt heel on Jeff again would be a mistake. Ride this face run out, and sell some Hardy merchandise after Jeffrey leaves. CM Punk is plenty heel enough for SmackDown! right now, and Chris Jericho is always there. Plus Dolph Ziggler and The Hart Dynasty are flirting with the main event scene. And there's Mike Knox and Kane, who are both doing some good work now.

If they want to turn someone heel, I'd consider Finlay or R-Truth before Matt Hardy.

I'm hoping that The Hart Dynasty face John Morrison & Matt Hardy at Summerslam. It would be thrown together, but the crowd would be into Morrison & Matt, and the match itself would be pretty fucking good.

Obvious booking 101:

The hardy boys reunite, E&C reunite.

Great tag team actions happens for a period of time with the aformentioned teams, jericho/big show and the hart dynasty (getting them over)

Jeff turns heel, hardys break up, jeff leaves the company leaving matt a face.

Feud between matt/edge/christian/jericho for WHC.

I am still hoping for Edge & Christian defending the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship against The Hardys at WrestleMania 26, even if Jeff is only back for the occasion. Add that to a possible card of the following:

World Heavyweight Championship
CM Punk vs. John Cena

WWE Championship
Randy Orton vs. Batista

Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels

The Undertaker vs. Chris Jericho

Scramble Match for the ECW Championship
William Regal vs. Tommy Dreamer vs. The Hurricane vs. Vladimir Kozlov vs. Goldust

Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Rey Mysterio vs. Big Show vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. John Morrison vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Zack Ryder vs. Mike Knox vs. Evan Bourne

There you have a pretty shapely WrestleMania card. And while I wouldn't be the biggest fan of some of the matches, that's probably a sign that it is fairly realistic.

Hornswoggle gets a huge pop. Should he be world champ?

Are you honestly comparing Hornswoggle to Matt Hardy?

I'm just saying, Matt is just not that interesting. I'll make this comparison. In terms of the appeal and popularity Matt Hardy is the Owen Hart to Jeff Hardy's Bret Hart. Owen was a very solid wrestler and pretty popular, but never world champ popularity. Matt would be a terrible choice as world champ.

Agree to disagree.

As a heel during the V.1 era and as a face during the MVP feud, Matt entertained me like crazy. He was getting some good heat during both times too.

Matt is definitely going to swerve Jeff out of the title come next Sunday at SummerSlam.

I'm thinking the same thing.

WWE has a way of not doing things lately just because it seems so obvious though. I don't know.

Well, I mean, how many face guys do you see making saves 2 weeks in a row and showing zero expression? Matt had kind of a weary / hidden angered look on his face when he made the save on Jeff Friday on SmackDown!...not once did I recall him smiling during that whole segment, which is a big part of what I think is the tip-off of him going back to being a heel.

I can see Matt costing Jeff the title and kinda echoing what Punk has been saying about Hardy. Whilst Jeff got sacked for his drug problems, Matt got sacked cos his girlfriend fucked his friend. Jeff returns to great fanfare, whilst Matt should consider himself lucky he was re-employed. Jeff is a 2 time World Champ who the fans love, whilst Matt's career has to play second fiddle.

Good lord, even though Punk has seriously improved, that is one AWFUL set of title matches.

Not to play semantics, but Jeff could be considered a 3 time world champ if you count his WWE Championship reign from Armageddon '08-Royal Rumble '09...

I don't think that Matt will screw Jeff, unless jeff signs a new contract.

If Matt did screw Jeff that would mean the only upper card face is John Morrison, and he's only been there for 8 weeks.

Unless we get a quick return for Taker, Matt will have to be bumped up to that level as well, unless they transfer someone else over.

Personally, for the sake of ratings, this may be a good time to switch John Cena over. He's done pretty much all he can now on Raw.
