Jeff hardy tribute (extreme highflyer)

Back


The Hardy brothers eventually caught the eyes of the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). After being signed to a contract in 1998,[5] they were trained by Dory Funk, Jr. in his Funkin' Dojo with other notable wrestlers such as Kurt Angle, Christian, Test, and A-Train.[4] When the team was finally brought up to WWF television, after months of 'jobbing' and house events, they formed the acrobatic tag team called the Hardy Boyz.[3] While feuding with The Brood in mid-1999, they added Michael Hayes as their manager.[3] On July 5, they won their first WWF Tag team Championship by defeating the Acolytes, but lost it back to them a month later.[18][19] After the dissolution of the Brood, the Hardys joined forces with Gangrel as the The New Brood, and feuded with Edge and Christian.[3][20] This stable didn't last long, however, and on October 17 at No Mercy 1999, the Hardy Boyz won the managerial services of Terri Runnels in the finals of the Terri Invitational Tournament in the WWF's first ever tag team ladder match against Edge and Christian.[5][21] In 2000, the Hardy Boyz found a new manager in their real-life friend Lita.[7] Together, the three became known as "Team Xtreme".[7] They continued their feud with Edge and Christian throughout 2000, defeating them for the WWF Tag Team Titles on two occasions.[22][23] At SummerSlam the Hardy Boyz competed in the first ever Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match, for the Tag Team Titles against the Dudley Boys and Edge and Christian, but were unsuccessful.[6] Hardy gained attention for his high risk stunts in the TLC matches in the year 2000,[6] 2001,[24] and 2002.[25] He made a name for himself as one of the most seemingly reckless and unorthodox WWF performers of his time.[26] In 2001, Hardy received a push as a singles competitor, and he held the WWF Intercontinental (defeating Triple H),[27] Light Heavyweight (defeating Jerry Lynn)[28] and Hardcore Championships (defeating Mike Awesome and Van Dam on two separate occasions).[29] At the end of 2001, the Hardys began a storyline, in which they began to fight, which led to Matt demanding a match at Vengeance, with Lita as special guest referee.[30] After Hardy beat Matt at Vengeance, while Matt's foot was on the ropes, Hardy and Lita began feuding against Matt.[31] In the middle of the feud, however, Hardy faced The Undertaker in a Hardcore Title match and lost.[32] After the match, the Undertaker attacked both Hardy and Lita, kayfabe injuring them.[32] The Hardys and Lita weren't seen again until the Royal Rumble, because WWE didn't have a storyline for them.[33] The Hardys came back as a team, and there was never any mention of their previous storyline split.[33] In early April 2002 the Hardy Boyz began a feud with Brock Lesnar after Lesnar gave Matt an F-5 on the steel entrance ramp, which led to an angered Hardy seeking revenge on Lesnar.[34] At Backlash, Hardy faced-off against Lesnar in his first televised match.[35] Lesnar dominated Hardy and won the match by knockout.[36] Lesnar and the Hardys continued to feud over the next few weeks, with the Hardys coming out victorious only once by disqualification.[37] At Judgment Day, Lesnar gained the upper hand on the Hardy Boyz before tagging his partner, Paul Heyman, in to claim the win for the team.[38] In July 2002, Hardy won his third Hardcore Championship by defeating Bradshaw.[8][29] Matt eventually switched brands to SmackDown!, leaving Hardy as a singles competitor.[39]
