Side Effect.

Uhm, what's all this about a Sleeper/Side Slam combination? Isn't the Side Effect a sitout Rock Bottom/side slam? Methnor 18:41, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

MattFacts

This section really needs cleaning up. There are repetitions of facts ("Matt is appearing in his fourth Wrestlemania", "Matt has been in four Wrestlemania's"), and have any of these been verified? Some of them are completely useless ("Mattitude is practiced in 100 countries"). That's all the bitching and whining I can think of ATM, but yeah. Koberulz 11:14, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

As mentioned in the text just before them, these 'facts' all appeared on Matt's website, or they were displayed in his entrance video whenever he came to the ring.. including the fcats "Matt has one more leg then Zack Gowen" and "Matt has more teeth then Chris Benoit", or something along those lines.Dbalsdon 17:25, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes, but is it really necessary to have these (especially this many of them) on his page?Koberulz 12:54, 8 March 2006 (UTC) and some of them a while back were really inappropriate,like..well i dont think i need to go there,i hope not..

is matt still going out with ashley?

that has nothing to do with MattFacts. you also need to sign your message. I don't believe they are still dating, but i'm not 100% certain. Koberulz 14:23, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
I certainly think this page needs a mention of the Matt Facts and a few examples, as it helped in his heel character development at the time (I was always partial to "Matt always received more Valentines than his brother Jeff," or "Matt often wonders how they had Wrestlemania without him.") —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.209.243.147 (talk) 03:07, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Matt+melina

melina never asked matt to face mnm at no way out. she thought that matt was joining mnm (which would make it mnmm)but matt declined that and took the invitational.

You Screwed Matt

Is the fans chanting "You Screwed Matt" really the fans referencing The Montreal Screwjob? I think that part should be taken out, because I am certain that it' more likely that the fans were just chanting it, not trying to reference anything. I won't take it out until I get a second opinion or something though.--69.153.168.83 18:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

Downfall move

Matt Hardy has started using the elbow variation of Downfall more these days. Stop removing it and let it associate with the leg drop variation. Thank you.

Also, stop bolding Downfall and Side Effect because they are not finishers. Matt's finisher is only the Twist of Fate.

Yeah, only the Downfall and the Twist of Fate are his finishers, so stop everyone!

What about early in his career when his finisher was named JLT (Just Like That). Could we put Twist of Fate/JLT?--TG 50 16:00, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

He didn't call it that, someone else (the name escapes me at the moment) used the Twist of Fate and called it the JLT, as far as I'm aware. MethnorTalk to me!

Also, Downfall *is* a finishing move, he HAS finished matches with it. MethnorTalk to me!

Yeah, and Kane has won matches with the big boot, but its not his finisher. More often than not a downfall only results in a two count. He only wins with it when he dives off of a cage or something. Hybrid

Reason for absence

I found this on the Hardy Show official website: The following is from Matt Hardy's official website:

Hello everyone,
Just a little update on Matt for the sake of killing any rumors and assumptions as to his status.
Simply enough, when Matt was given the standard blood test, they found dormant trace elements of the Staph infection which plagued him many months ago.
After a light antibiotic treatment and a few weeks off to properly rest, Matt will be back...
Feel free to send him your thoughts, possibly via a 'get well' thread on the board?
Hope all of you are making the most of the summer!

Is It True?

Is it true that Matt Hardy and Gregory Helms are bitter rivals in real life or is it kayfabe?

Strictly kayfabe. They are best friends in real life, actually. They do have some friendly competition, but that's as far as it goes. THL 16:10, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Corner Powerbomb

I added the Corner Sitout Powerbomb to Hardy's signature movelist as he seems to use it on a regular basis.

Matt is teaming with Jeff--deal with it

Seriously, I've put in that Matt is teaming with his brother Jeff for the first time in 5 years at Survivor Series at least 3 times, and each time it keeps being taken out. This is NOT a week to week thing; this is an important note in Matt's career. I don't know why people keep taking it out. Maybe you don't want Matt to team with Jeff again; I don't know, but he is, and so it should be in here. Anakinjmt 03:20, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

Read the warning before you keep adding it, and maybe you wound understand:

DO NOT ADD WEEK BY WEEK EVENTS, RUMOURS OR SPECULATION. THIS INCLUDES ANNOUNCED MATCHES THAT HAVE NOT YET OCCURRED. WIKIPEDIA IS NOT A NEWS SITE BUT AN ONLINE ENCYCLOPAEDIA. Please see the articles "Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not" and "Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles" for more information. --  Mikedk9109  (talk)  03:24, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

What? That doesn't apply here. This is not a week by week event, a rumor, a speculation, announcing a match that hasn't been announced yet, or even a generic spoiler. Your logic makes no sense here. It's well known by now that Matt is teaming up with Jeff again, and the article should mention that. Anakinjmt 03:26, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
This is a future event, and future events are not to be added. Ask any other user who edits wrestler articles regulary, and they will tell you the same thing. --  Mikedk9109  (talk)  03:28, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Survivor Series hasn't happened yet, so it is in the future. -- THLCCD 03:30, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Considering this is a historic moment, it should be here. Besides, I've seen things written like that countless times in other articles, which btw are still there. Anakinjmt 03:34, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Maybe, people don't get around to dealing with it, because they are stuck on useless problems like this. --  Mikedk9109  (talk)  03:40, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Anyway, I would appreciate knowing which ones, as a good number of my edits are reverting stuff like that. Anyway, everyone thought that the "reunion" of Team Extreme at that one PPV would be historic to, but so far it hasn't been used in any angles. Also, it hasn't become historic yet. Historic = an important moment that has taken place in the past. It hasn't happened yet, and policy is policy. If you don't like it, I'm sorry, but it isn't going to change. We cannot add anything that hasn't happened yet, period. That is just the way it is, sorry. -- THLCCD 03:43, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Alright, don't want to do it yet, fine, I can tolerate that. Survivor Series is only 9 days away anyways. However, if we're going to be like that, then I've got a list of articles that we need to edit for that same reason, because they both mention upcoming matches at either Survivor Series or December to Dismember

Not a week by week event

I have been trying to add the following to matt (and jeff's) page but it keeps getting removed or "immaturly" edited.

"On the November 27th, 2006 episode of Raw, Jeff teamed up with his brother Matt to face off against Rated-RKO for the World Tag Team Championship. The Hardys won the match via DQ therefore Rated-RKO remained the World Tag Team Champions."

The reason I added it is because it was a title match and it was the first time in so many years (on RAW) on which they have teamed up... also because Matt made a move to Raw. Stop removing it please

First of all, Matt is still on Smackdown.[1] Second, nothing came of the match. They didn't win the title, and they aren't involved in a feud for the titles as of yet. That is a total week by week event. -- THLCCD 16:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
How is it week-by-week when it's only one event? Week-by-week, if I understand correctly, involves writing down what happens each and every single week. This was one match. One event. One key feature, by the way. Same day, same week, same show. You can't be calling it week-by-week. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.247.22.151 (talk) 01:49, 8 December 2006 (UTC).
It isn't a key event seeing as they didn't actually win the titles, and they aren't officially feuding with Rated-RKO yet. If they start feuding with Rated-RKO, then I'd be willing to add it personally. Week-by-week, when used in the context of wrestling articles on Wikipedia, generally means that the event seems notable on its own at the moment, but in the long run it really didn't affect anything. These kinds of things have clogged up wrestling articles in the past; therefore, they are typically removed on sight as a preemptive measure. Week-by-week is really another way of saying that we don't know if it will be notable yet, so we are going to leave it out until it has become notable. -- THLR 03:12, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Shouldn't the Scar be listed as one of his finishers, not just a signature move? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kingkrispy (talkcontribs) 14:15, 13 December 2006 (UTC).

10 or 20 team?

the hardy's won the tag belts on the April 2, 2207 edition of Raw. But was it a 10 team match? or 20 team, the match was recycled (done twice). Dro Boy April 2 , 2007 23:00

It was a 10 team battle royal. There were 2 separate battle royals. Ohgltxg 16:10 3 April, 2007 (UTC)


Matt is now a RAW wrestler

By winning the World Tag Team Championship, Matt automatically transfers over to the Raw roster (a la Gregory Helms when he won the Cruiserweight Title).

I know Matt is still on the Smackdown page on WWE.com, but so is Joey Mercury, and he was released over a week ago. They are notoriously slow to update the roster pages.

Ohgltxg 16:14 3 April, 2007 (UTC)

As much as I WANT to agree with you and change it over, a precedent has been set that says we don't switch the wrestlers until WWE officially does. Well, now that I think about it, I guess winning the tag titles does make it official doesn't it? Eh, go ahead and change it, I was wrong. Bmg916SpeakSign 13:18, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Matt is still a part of SmackDown! even though he's one half of the World Tag Team Champions. On the April 6th edition of SD!, when Matt entered the ring, his name was still part of the blue SmackDown! design, it didn't say RAW on it. Plus when they removed Mercury's profile, they still kept Matt there so he IS a part of the SmackDown! roster.

I'd disagree I think WWE just didn't get around to changing Matt's ring name color. Another thing Murcury's profile has nothing to do with Matt remberer it was murcury that got released not Matt. But if your right that would mean that the World Tag Team championships also belongs to Smackdown. So technically Smackdown would have 2 sets of tag team titles making the tag titles undisputed. Which would in the process take out the other 2 halfs of the original 2 sets of titles thus making it one. So in that way I think it would be simlir to the undisputed chamionship path Leaving one brand a title short so I don't think that would be a good idea. But if thay were to do that than thay should replace it with the Eropean Championship but that's just my opinin. sorry for making it so long. Mike

I'm positive Matt's a part of SmackDown! Everybody keeps saying how WWE.com takes too long to change profiles but I don't think it would take this long if he was moving. he's definitely SmackDown! as someone said before, on RAW JR refered to Matt Hardy as "SmackDown!'s Matt Hardy" after winning the titles. What I meant by Mercury's profile removal is that if they finally removed his profile, why not move Matt's profile too over to RAW if he was moving. it would seem weird not to get it over with. It's clear Matt is SD! This is not the first time that someone held a title that wasn't of their brand. Though most of them did switch brands. It wouldn't mean sd! has 2 tag titles because they're raw exclusive and jeff is a part of raw. i think it's called "freebird" rule or something that allows wrestlers of different brands to challenge for another brand's title. mine's long tooSmackDown!RULES 17:24 9 April, 2007
No, the Freebird rule is the rule that lets Teams of more than 2 be tag team champions at the same time, such as the Spirit Squad. But I think until WWE.COM moves Matt's profile over to RAW, we cannot change his status on wikipedia, because wikipedia is not the primary source. ProtoWolf 03:29, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
As much as i wan't Matt on Smackdown!, i think they are aready in the process in moving his profile over to RAW. His "PROFILE" is still on the smackdown side...... but all the other pages assoidated with his profile (bio,mailbag,etc...) are on the raw side now. "refer to this link. Notice in the link it doesn't say smackdown... it says RAW."( http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/matthardy/profile/ ) but who knows..... maybe they might keep him on smackdown. Jdelajfari1615 06:49, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

I think that link above is enough proof. WWE have taken a while to edit important things like this in the past. If he isnt on raw then theres no point in having seperate brands with disputed titles anymore. i think that by next week on raw his background will have changed to the raw template.

Regardless of what the link says, the pages are all SmackDown! Matt Hardy is a SmackDown! superstar as of now, period. Refer to the WWE Roster talk page for more proof. By the way, read that whole section. It's been decided. Matt Hardy is SmackDown! until his namestamp says he's RAW or the website says he's RAW. Period. L2K 12:59, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Indeed that talk page does say that Matt's still on smackdown but that a matter of opinion at this point in fact I think it's all a matter of opinion at this point. However I do kinda agree with what's said "Matt is a smackdown superstar until proven other wise". But remember how slowly WWE ajust rosters. But if Matt turns out to be a smackdown superstar than the titls are apart of smackdown property but it would still be defended on Raw only. Mike


the link that i posted was to show that they have been moving matt's profile to RAW. i didn't say he was a raw superstar now, as it says on wwe.com still. hes a Smackdown superstar still and shouldn't be change to RAW till it it's official.Jdelajfari1615 05:29, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

just so everybody knows, if you go to the smackdown! page on wwe.com, you'll notice a small section that says "Who Benefits?" and the caption says "In the past, when a major WWE Superstar like King Booker goes down, another Superstar steps up to seize the spotlight. Votes are in and WWE fans select Matt Hardy as the SmackDown competitor to step up." Notice how they say SmackDown! competitor even though the small pic they have is him with the tag belt on RAW... i think that'll settle it for those who are still questioning his brand. SmackDown!RULES 15:27, 20 April 2007

I saw that very same page on WWE.com and was thinking "If they are gonna push him as a SmackDown superstar, why do they have him as RAW's tag champ? Also, if you noticed last night on RAW, his namestamp was the RAW namestamp. That could be significant, but I think we should wait until they move him on WWE.com or start referring to him as a RAW superstar. L2K 13:49, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Also, noting the speed with which Edge was moved to the SmackDown roster after he won the World title shows that Matt Hardy's picture on the SmackDown roster page is no mistake.--ProtoWolf 22:26, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Edge moved to smackdown beacuse he cashed in his money in the bank contract in for the World heavyweight title so there's nothing controversial about that. However matt is still a smackdown superstar. I know that because if you were to look at the tag team championship but DONT CLICK ON IT you should see that it reads JEFF HARDY WITH SMACKDOWN's MATT HARDY. Another would be somewhere on wwe.com where matt states "that i'm actually glad that edge is the new champ beacuse i'd like nothing more than revenge and for the title.

Along with all the other evidence presented, it is now UNDISPUTED that Matt is part of the Smackdown! roster...
On June 3 the Hardys competed in a ladder match at One Night Stand. The next night, Jeff AND Matt appeared together backstage on Monday night RAW...Mr. McMahon forced them into a match with Cade and Murdoch in which they lost the World Tag Team Titles (a RAW brand title)...4 days later on that same week's edition of Smackdown Matt appeared and competed in a handicapped match. Then on the June 11th edition of RAW...(the 2007 Draft night) Not only did JBL verbalize his wish for Jeff to be drafted to Smackdown!, saying "Reunite the Hardys!", but in the final battle royal match, Matt came out as one of the Smackdown! representatives, wearing a blue Smackdown! t-shirt.
Matt Hardy is (and has been) without a doubt part of the Smackdown roster. --JohnDoe0007 18:32, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Matt/Vince rivalry coming?

i know it shouldnt be put in his artical, but Vince and Matt [to me] might look like there about to have a rivalry. I think this because Vince screwed Matt twice by making him dfend his tag team title when he was in no condition to fight, then made him fight Deuce n Domino in a handicapp match, then Matt had a small section on wwe.com about how he feals about the 'new' Vince.Mt 1994 14:44, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

AHH. After last monday all i can now say is Never mind...62.31.120.177 11:36, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Super Twist of Fate?

Matt has used the Twist of Fate off the turnbuckle once, so it isn't really a finisher... It's only the Twist of Fate off the turnbuckle, not worth noting, is it? Talon Kelson 04:17, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

All I know is that it was listed for a long time before the latest edition of SmackDown! where he used it to defeat Kenny Dykstra, so obviously he has used it more than once. I'm not saying it's notable, I'm just saying he has used it before. - Deep Shadow 04:26, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

I edited it to say he does it on occasion off of ladders or the turnbuckle. Hope that settles things. Ladder4321 09:50, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Side Effect

The Side Effect has been listed in the finishers section. The Side Effect is not what I would call one of his finishers, more a signature move. agree/disagree?Ocelot 21:09, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

The problem there is that you can't rely on an article posted on the WWE site to be factual and not kayfabe used solely to promote the upcoming PPV. 124.168.50.237 16:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

You know, in all honesty it seems rather legitimate, what with the photograph-type whatnot, but I agree that in any case the information provided by WWE.com is questionable, and it is not a very reliable source. Even more pertinently, WWE.com has not even announced that Hardy's apparent injury will prevent him from competing, they have simply announced that it is possible, meaning that if the injury does not prevent Hardy from competing, it probably isn't significant enough to add to the article. That being said, because we don't really know for a fact the seriousness/legitimacy of the injury, it is too early to determine it's importance, so anything that would be added to the article, even if we were to accept WWE.com as a source, would be purely speculative. Calgary 22:50, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Add the injury, Matt got pulled from Cyber Sunday. AD Double J 01:08, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Hardy Attacking

Hardy's absence from Survivor Series makes me unsure his knee injury during the 2 Tag team championships matches is kayfabe. I looked into the cite [45] and it never mentioned any hint of a kayfabe injury. Of course, I don't expect WWE to come out and confess every kayfabe, but I don't see any proof why his injury is kayfabe. So, until further notice or explanation, I'm going to remove this tidbit of info. And, for the love of God, don't respond to this without reason for the injury being kayfabe. [[User:SxeFluff--SxeFluff (talk) 03:59, 20 November 2007 (UTC)]] 10:05, 19 November 2007

Well the reason Hardy was out is because of his appendiz rupture, the leg injury is kayfabe, or at least no serious otherwise WWE have have reported it by now. The Legendary One (talk) 23:20, 23 November 2007 (UTC)


Double-Team Move

A few weeks ago, I tried to add a move to the In-Wrestling Double Team move section, which was removed. Look, I don't know what the move is called, but it goes like this: Matt got on the mat, and Jeff jumped off his back and gave a Splash to an opponent in the corner.

The Hardyz did that in nearly every tag match they had since re-forming last year, so I believe it should be noted. Zack Shadow (talk) 03:47, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

im not a doctor so i was wondering, with a burst appendix how long will he be out for?Mt 1994 (talk) 12:17, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

anywhere from 1-3 months. He did appear on RAW last night though. NiciVampireHeart (talk) 13:00, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

so its around the time of the royal rumble to wrestlemania then. so shouldnt it be changed because it says they thought he would be out for 1 to 3 months but the it was reveald his appendix had already burst so shouldnt it instead say it was revealed his appendix had already burst and was estimated to be out for 1-3 months.82.44.97.100 (talk) 13:27, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Matt Hardy is my favorite superstar in the entire WWE, but I would not blame him for jumping over to TNA since the company will not use him. He is the most popular star on Smackdown, yet he never gets a push. It is now March 10, 2008 and he has not returned from his injury yet. He is however healed. Now MVP is in the Money in the Bank match at Wrestlemania, leaving Matt again off of the line-up. Even though a lot of the other less gifted superstars are on it, like Batista, CM Punk, John Cena, and Umaga. I guess we will never see the ending to his feud with MVP. Sounds a lot like WCW doen't it, always ditching storylines in the middle of them and keeping people down? Anyway, if anyone has any news to when he is returning (for real, no rumors) let us all know. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.177.78.224 (talk) 22:55, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

If Matt was even in the match, I could see it happening, but he's not, so hopefully, they finally give matt the title, I say around Backlash, or on the wrestlemaina revenge tour. Armedhamster —Preceding unsigned comment added by Armedhamster (talkcontribs) 06:22, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Birthplace

I just took a look at Matt's official MySpace page. He states that he was actually born in a hospital in Sanford, North Carolina, although he did grow up in Cameron. That does seem reasonable, considering that:

  • Cameron is a community of under 200 people, and likely would not have a hospital. Hospital births have been standard in the US for decades before 1974, when Matt was born.
  • Sanford, along with the Pinehurst resort area, is the nearest substantial community to Cameron. It would be reasonable for an expectant mother in Cameron to go to a hospital in Sanford to deliver.

Should the change be made, or not? — Dale Arnett (talk) 14:09, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

GAN on hold

  • Move ref 4 to end of sentence for readability
  • "Besides their WWE career" - use his, we know he's a guy
  • "(with Jeff Hardy)" - this has already been linked, just use "Jeff"
  • No mention of personal life in lead?...,it should expand more for a fairly long article
  • In the Career section, you should spell out WWF, WCW, etc. the first time you mention them
  • "His first ever WWF match" - rmv ever
  • "match came against" - change came to was (or something like that)
  • "On July 5" - wlink date
  • "In 2001, after Jeff Hardy's Intercontinental Championship run,[19] Matt Hardy" - just use their first names
  • "once againtwice more" - huh?
  • "Matt Hardy - Version 1" -image caption uses colon, not hyphen...be consistent
  •  DoneLAX 02:01, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Refer to him by surname in the Release and independents (2005) section, I don't think you mention Jeff...(same in next section...)
  • Also wlink dates in that section
  • And everywhere else...:)
  • Hardy caught an interfering Lita with the Twist of Fate and won the match with a leg-drop off the top of the cage" - jargon, needs wlinks for what these moves mean
