They worked so well together, on the mic and in the ring, and their characters clashed perfectly. In a year that was otherwise lackluster in my opinion, that feud was its saving grace.
The last segment of the documentary discusses the feud between Hardy and CM Punk over the summer of 2009.
From what I understand, it was supposed to be Christian slated in that slot, but they changed plans when it became "too obvious" for fans. For the longest time, I never believed Matt did any of those heinous acts because it was never confirmed it was him. It was at that time that I became a fan of Matt, but looking back at it, the storyline was stupid. From, there they got into his feud with his brother Matt which they talked about in kayfabe (more on that later). His matches with Triple H that fall were excellent and his eventual WWE title win at December's Armageddon event made for an amazing moment. I really enjoyed Hardy's title chase that year and it made for a great story. Hardy's road to the WWE Championship all throughout 2008 was a major topic that was covered. Had Hardy been in the match, would Punk have ever been world champion? Perhaps, but it's interesting to think about.
He didn't flat-out say it, but it was pretty obvious. By that he meant Hardy was supposed to win. Hayes made mention of how Hardy screwed up his chance to "do well" in the Money in the Bank Ladder match at WrestleMania 24. When they brought up his second suspension, Michael P.S. Then again, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised they were acknowledged in storyline at the time they happened and they were a part of his character anyway. They don't go too in-depth, but I was glad they were mentioned and not glossed over. With a big chuck of Hardy's career missing, the documentary was significantly shorter than most, but they still managed to cover quite a bit in the three years he was with the company for.Ī big part of what's covered is Hardy's two suspensions during his second run. I'm assuming they didn't cover his childhood or his initial run with the company since they probably already did that in the Hardy Boys documentary that was released in 2008. The documentary portion of the DVD kicks off with Jeff Hardy's return to WWE in 2006. That's not to say Jeff Hardy's documentary was bad, but it certainly wasn't among the best ones I've seen. Remember, this was released in 2009, long before they started going in-depth with their documentaries (look at CM Punk's, Chris Jericho's and Edge's as examples). As a disclaimer, let me say that it is nothing like what the WWE documentaries are today. I've watched the DVD a handful of times over the last five years, but it was just recently I watched it again with a fresh set of eyes.

He'd show up on TNA TV a little less than a month later, and out of nowhere, they stopped promoting him. I also remember WWE hyping it all over their weekly programming, including at that year's Slammy Awards by his old rival CM Punk. I wasted no time in watching it and remember thoroughly enjoying it. The three-disc DVD set was released in late 2009, mere months removed from Hardy's departure from the company. It's not that I hated Hardy, I was just never a fan of his during his WWE tenure. I received it as a Christmas gift in 2009 despite never being a fan of his (but my brother was, so that's probably why). This was one of the first wrestling documentaries I ever got.
