It's interesting how different the Hardys were different in of their stints of teaming up in TNA: doing only one random match as weird Immortal heels during the Hawk Hogan era, focusing on their classic stuff during the last few months on Spike, and coming up with the Broken Brilliance during the great TNA depression
The Hardys as a whole are one of the greatest microcosms of wrestling ever. You can find almost *every* trope possible in their story, probably down to the last one, I just haven't counted yet. You've got both the Jannetty & the extra rare *reverse* Jannetty. Both men have been considered one as the main event star and the other as a lost cause, and *switched* . Both men have reached the highest highs and been at the lowest lows. They've been everywhere and done everything. We can only hope Tony has the sense to let them have a final blowout singles match before they actually retire.
Dear Zane, I apologize for the lack of thumbs up that your rather clever comment has garnered , but I chalk it up to childish gaffes from wayward youths . Boy howdy I remember those days , there were a lot more apples to go around for everyone as my grandad used to say . But before I become too long-winded, all I can say is stay strong and keep riding the razor thin line of caustic wit and gentle. Keep on rocking
Definitely a proper grade. Hardys carried TNA in their worst years, and were a huge draw in some of their better years. Always entertaining. Itch Weed for life
I like how your channel has grown to 100K subscribers, and you’ve still kept many of the low-budget intros. They make you feel like a homegrown channel.
@@TheSoonToBePurgedJackMeHoff55 That's what I was going to say. With the exception of like companies making channels, most UA-cam channels are homegrown lol
Didn't notice the Dudley's wearing their WWE gear til just now. Granted I was done with TNA at this point but it was a sign of things to come regarding their return to the fed.
I believe Matt won with the Side Effect only once on a random episode of WWECW by accident. Other than that, everyone and their moms have kicked out of it
Surprise that Side Effect was never a finisher but it should. Both Hardys have Twist Of Fate, but Jeff as a high flyer on all levels has Swanton Bomb, why nobody made Matt doing Side effect as a legit finisher
As a big Matt Hardy fan 2014-2018 really was his time to shine both in the Hardyz and as Big Money/Broken Matt Hardy. In saying that 2022 Matt Hardy is kinda depressing but Matt/Jeff are on the Mount Rushmore of tag teams
I wasn't watching wrestling really much at all during this time and while I knew they were there, I didn't realize how much effort they put into this run. I saw them live at a nindy show in NC about 2 weeks before they came back to WWE and they were really cool, nice fellas before the show during their meet n greet. I don't think Matt wrestled that night but Jeff took on Sami Callihan in the main event in what wasn't announced to be, but became moments before the match, a falls count anywhere match. So anyway I saw Jeff take a table bump about 6 feet away from me. Was pretty cool.
I don't know if you've already covered them, but I like to see other teams and stables get covered so I wager The Revolution. That one stable with Storm, Abyss, Sanada, Manik and Shera. They have 10 matches which includes tags and handicap matches (not including One Night Only and Xplosion shows)
I don't know if this is a hot take because there's a lot of great tag teams but the hardy boys are one of the greatest tag teams of all time and also happens to be my favourite tag team
This is no where near a hot take the hardys are regularly seen as one of the greatest teams of all time even wrestling purists who prefer more technical wrestling respect them
I would say that’s not a hot take and they’re also my favorite tag team although I am highly biased because I basically grew up in Cameron in the 90’s/early 2000’s and still live here only about 5-10 minutes outside of the actual town, although everyone calls the surrounding area Cameron so I kinda do live in Cameron just not officially and I’m on the other side of the county line lol. But because of that they will always be my favorites
wait what? Does shane helms own the hurricane character? That was unexpected. I don't think anyone would care about the 3 count gimmick but the hurricane seems like something wwe would hold on to.
Facts. He was my favorite during their original WWF run because he did the nitty gritty, non-flashy stuff & put his body on the line while helping make Jeff look good.
@@ktj5616 "recovering addict"... Lol. He's a moron. Would you still be defending that idiot if he hit you or a close family member while driving drunk? Dumb fanboy.
I love your channel and I’d like to see a video a weird tag team from the early day’s of TNA, The Rainbow Express to see how the Hawk would tear them a new one!
Man I wish I would’ve been watching wrestling at that time because I never knew about that match and as someone who lives and grew up in the Cameron area it’s cool to see them fighting in an area I drive through all the time, idk if they were really fighting in the spot I think they were but if so it’s just cool as hell to see something like that and be like oh shit I live right up the road from there and it’s cool as hell that they’re always repping our little country ass area and never forgot where they came from
Despite the infamous PPV with Sting the Hardy Boyz really put their bodies on the line with very fluid, fantastic to watch acrobatic moves. They were always exciting to watch and remain my favorites. Jeff Hardy was rather small but made up for it with Olympic class gymnastic moves.
The Hardy's second Gig after their one match with Immortal is how I learned about the American Wolves and became fans of both Richards and Edwards. Once they became broken, I was mixed until that Apocalypto match. Yeah once Dixie's hands were off the Hardy's they came into their own until the title swap at the end, fuck Impact Wrestling for that
Do Mia Yim's first and second runs in Impact. I suggest everybody watch Josh Alexander (c) vs Mike Bailey for the Impact championship from this week's episode. Impact just posted the uncut version.
29:53 LOL out loud. That was a disaster. A? Good grief. You may decide who dies and who lives. but you won't make it happen with me unless mercy I give.
Impressive performance from the Wolves in the first match they return. I dont remember the Wolves being that interesting as they were boring as characters but i remember loving their matches with the Hardys and Dudleys. The tag series was awesome. The ladder match and the full metal mayhem (which is on YT) were incredible. Holy shit just seen Tyrus RUN in their match 😮😮😮😮 Anyone who watched Tyrus v ec3 in NWA I know will also have gone 😮 I have no memory of The Revolution wth
I still say to this day the original Broken Hardy's run was by far the greatest thing I ever seen in wrestling gimmick wise and if it wasn't for them and BTE in 2015/16 I don't know if I ever would have even got back into wrestling. I fade away and classify myself as obsolete....
I had no recollection of The Revolution as tag champions or them fighting the Hardyz and then the second I saw Jeff on the cage door and Storm with the bell I got teleported back to childhood losing my mind when this happened
The Broken Hardy's era was awesome! Really got me back into wrestling. I completely tuned out in 2011 because WWE was pure trash and TNA was like watching Hulk Hogan's Rocking Wheelchair Wrestling at an old folk's home. But bumping into Matt and Jeff's crazy antics got me back on board. Sadly, it ended and was damaged by the fact that TNA didn't have many people that were worth a damn at the time and then they were stupid enough to not try to keep the Hardy's. But maybe the fact it was short made it better.
Yo that great war match the Hardy boys had at match 19 was absolutely fucking insane ‼️💯🤜🏾🤛🏾 Jeff having two character changes in one match 😂 broken Hardys was lit ASF 🔥
I just noticed the Dudleyz do the doomsday device wrong & by that I mean safely. because unlike how Animal would just let the guy fall backwards off his shoulders, Bubba falls down with him.
You can see the colour scheme in TNA change throughout this video. It just becomes some dark and drained of life. It's like they couldn't afford to have the lights on for some matches
Markyd123 and TWFS (Super Fun Wrestling Time) are the best wrestling channels and the only ones I watch, and I haven't watched wrestling since the whole Chris Benoit tragedy
This video had a lot of gimmick matches and it makes me wonder if The Hardyz were the ones who requested doing them when they got to AEW. I say that because people were giving Tony Khan a hard time about putting The Hardyz in all those high risk matches so early into their run in the company.
I remember match 17, it was hilarious lol I hated Al Snow. Jeff doing a Swanton through a table, for fun, reminds me of Terry Funk. Or one of the old WWE games, I had Joker created. He randomly did a springboard, through a table. 😆
For a brief moment the Broken Hardys made Impact a must watch show.
It was a few months but that is indeed a brief moment in the business
Legit, I actually followed Impact again after the FINAL DELETION.
LOVED THEIR FEUD WITH DECAY!! They were all great but Rosemary was a revelation!
Broken Hardys made an IMPACT
I'm sorry, but TNA was never must watch for me. Or millions of other people apparently
It's interesting how different the Hardys were different in of their stints of teaming up in TNA: doing only one random match as weird Immortal heels during the Hawk Hogan era, focusing on their classic stuff during the last few months on Spike, and coming up with the Broken Brilliance during the great TNA depression

What about Amy "Lita" Dumas's story was she any Good???
8:50 “Surprisingly that doesn’t kill off Jeff” should be the title of the Hardy’s autobiography. Great line.

*Itchweeed. Yes, Jeff spells his name this way.
I remember the Hardys series with the Wolves and the Dudleys. Great matches they had together.
I love how your channel covers TNA, especially NWA TNA. No one else does this company justice.
I'm shocked Brain Zane never did a Month of Tna classic reviews for the 20th anniversary of the company
Definitely the greatest set of matches in the history of Ring of the Hawk. Great stuff from The Hardy's. Thoroughly entertaining.
The Hardy Boyz TLC matches with the Dudley’s and Edge and Christian are legendary. That was such a great time to be a fan.
I like how your channel has grown to 100K subscribers, and you’ve still kept many of the low-budget intros. They make you feel like a homegrown channel.
Definitely
... thats because he *is* a homegrown channel...

I believe Matt won with the Side Effect only once on a random episode of WWECW by accident. Other than that, everyone and their moms have kicked out of it
And the only reason he won is because the opponent forgot to kick out.
Wasn’t it his finisher for his heel
Smack down run??
@@collinjay7108 I don't believe so, but I could always be wrong.
Surprise that Side Effect was never a finisher but it should. Both Hardys have Twist Of Fate, but Jeff as a high flyer on all levels has Swanton Bomb, why nobody made Matt doing Side effect as a legit finisher
It's a signature move not a finisher.
As a big Matt Hardy fan 2014-2018 really was his time to shine both in the Hardyz and as Big Money/Broken Matt Hardy.
In saying that 2022 Matt Hardy is kinda depressing but Matt/Jeff are on the Mount Rushmore of tag teams
19:40 can we just appreciate how good that counter to the twist of fate was
I normally just listen to these while I do other things. Not only did I watch this one, but rewound it a couple dozen times for the high spots.
I wasn't watching wrestling really much at all during this time and while I knew they were there, I didn't realize how much effort they put into this run.

i loved the Broken Hardys run. Just the absurdity of it was great.
Pretty revolutionary at the time
@@Markyd123 ur mom is bad
I'm still surprised on how many quality content you've been doing, it's just banger every single time.
The Side Effect did get a 3 count at Unforgiven 2008 during the ECW scramble match. So technically it did beat someone.
Loved the broken hardys and the final deletion. I actually looked forward to watching TNA every week first time in at least 2 years during this era.
I don't know if you've already covered them, but I like to see other teams and stables get covered so I wager The Revolution. That one stable with Storm, Abyss, Sanada, Manik and Shera. They have 10 matches which includes tags and handicap matches (not including One Night Only and Xplosion shows)
If there is one thing to say about the Hardys it's that they want to keep the crowd entertained
This episode made me laugh more than any other episode. Great upload.
The Hardy boys will go down in history as both legends
I don't know if this is a hot take because there's a lot of great tag teams but the hardy boys are one of the greatest tag teams of all time and also happens to be my favourite tag team

Match 12 ending, holy shit no wonder why Jeff does so many drugs. Unreal
That German into the jackknife pin by the wolves is an amazing spot.
Bet it wouldn't keeo nojobrob down tho..
He's so lucky I'll never see em, as I'd spitt n hiz fayce !!😡🗣💦😵

Who remembers Shocker from TNA
The guy looked like George Lopez from Sharkboy and Lavagirl
A ring of the hawk for the mexican star
Destination American TNA reminds me of lucha underground like the look of it and the way it was recorded
19:27 "Matt Hardy is now attacking fat fans at ringside" 🤣
DAMN! I wish I caught this run while it was happening, those Wolf Lads are actually pretty awesome.
Great video!
This vid just further validates that Matt was underrated.
Facts.
He was my favorite during their original WWF run because he did the nitty gritty, non-flashy stuff & put his body on the line while helping make Jeff look good.
hes the brains of the team

Speaking of the Hardy Boyz, Matts run in Ring of Honor would also qualify.
Team 3D vs Hardy Boyz vs The Wolves is the series that made me like the wolves I never really got the hate the hawk gives the wolves and Eddie Edwards
I don’t hate Eddie in the wolves. I don’t think he’s a main eventer.
I forgot how underrated The Hardyz 2014 run was
Chuckie T managed an A match on Ring of the Hawk!
I'm surprised at how good their matches were before the Broken stuff to be honest.
The Hardys and The Wolves put on some excellent performances. Some of the chains of fast-paced moves are incredible.
31:09 one of those belts was from my promotion on chile Wrestling Superstar, good times.
Christmas has came early! MarkyD is the gift that keeps on giving.
goddamn that fall on the steps hurt me.
Well, looks like no one will be stealing the swanton bomb in today's episode.
That twist of fate counter into a super kick was 🔥🔥🔥
I love your channel and I’d like to see a video a weird tag team from the early day’s of TNA, The Rainbow Express to see how the Hawk would tear them a new one!
Hardey vs DUDLEYS VS WOLVES
ALL were classics
Match 24. No stoner friend.
'Nuff said, true beLIEvers.

The dirty heels, when you like the heel team, because they are the sole other seriously tag team around.
I was just thinkin about the hawk and was curious if anyone remembered christopher nowinski? now Ill watch the dam video and comment again!
Despite the infamous PPV with Sting the Hardy Boyz really put their bodies on the line with very fluid, fantastic to watch acrobatic moves. They were always exciting to watch and remain my favorites. Jeff Hardy was rather small but made up for it with Olympic class gymnastic moves.
Damn... Broken Matt was goated
Favorite wrestling UA-camr hands down
Great episode! The Hardy Boyz were made and rose to fame in WWE, but they are so much better in Impact, The Indy's, and AEW!
I actually liked evil Matt with the Icepick submission front choke finisher, I was the only one

The Tribunal were basically if you took the blank slate you are given in create-a-wrestler mode and call it a day.

I have no memory of The Revolution wth
Great video to remind you just how incredible the entire Broken storyline and run was. I loved TNA then as much as I had for years
24:42 that match was created to promote the show Wolf’s creek (a pop tv show)
The Great War was a must see match. Loved that one.
I always loved when the Hardys would suddenly bust out new moves, just to freshen it up a bit.
Broken Matt Hardy was one of the best gimmicks of all time

They ain’t 20 no more so it’s understandable that eventually the quality drop because we always expect Jeff to try to DELETE himself 😅
The Tag Team Apocalypto Match was the last TNA show I got to watch for years! Simply because they took TNA off of Challenge.
Everyone's gangster until someone does the _WONDERFUL_ J.O.B. to The Hawk.
Cowbell to head and falling on those steps... I suggest a video of the Hardy's most brutal bumps, at least Jeff's.
Broek Hardyz were an incredible gimmick.
Weird having someone do the Swanton bomb and not having the Jeff segment lol
I love the Chicken Hawk! Keep up the great job!
23:44 hey....not mentioning the fireball Matt threw at Abyss during the car chase ?
Those “oh yeah” when givin the grade had me dyin

That part with the goggles was bonkers
You can see the colour scheme in TNA change throughout this video. It just becomes some dark and drained of life. It's like they couldn't afford to have the lights on for some matches
Duuuuuuude, I was watching NWA TNA when I saw this guy Jeff Hardy steal my finisher. I ...wait, that was me!
Ok @ 8:45 imagine Jeff’s leg gets caught in the harness suspending the belts above the ring
Jeff used to do a Russian leg sweep and then do that school boy pin where he sat on both of his opponents legs.
Matt's run in tna not only "saved" him, but it saved tna.
As someone who stopped watching TNA when they were still on Spike, this video is an acid trip.
Markyd123 and TWFS (Super Fun Wrestling Time) are the best wrestling channels and the only ones I watch, and I haven't watched wrestling since the whole Chris Benoit tragedy
What about Steiner brothers in TNA for ring of the hawk maybe?
Hardy boys for life
The Hardy's had a great pair of matches vs the Young Bucks during their Expedition of Gold
whew this run was pretty good. This one might be in the Ring of the Hawk hall of fame. Is this the best run in the history of the show?
This video had a lot of gimmick matches and it makes me wonder if The Hardyz were the ones who requested doing them when they got to AEW. I say that because people were giving Tony Khan a hard time about putting The Hardyz in all those high risk matches so early into their run in the company.
5:55 dimwit jeff no clue what's going on, trying to break up the pin and bubba saving him from embarrassment
13:58 man that move is slick. Like an AJ Styles reverse ddt he used to do

I hated Al Snow.
Jeff doing a Swanton through a table, for fun, reminds me of Terry Funk.
Or one of the old WWE games, I had Joker created. He randomly did a springboard, through a table. 😆
Similar Creatures was my favorite Hardy theme in TNA. I don't digg his music but that was his best one I've heard, imo.
Mine was the heel theme. The lines really reflect how he was probably feeling at that time in his life
