Was TNA Matt's last proper run then? He's going to be the Marty Jannetty of his generation. Except he was never really that good.

Disagree with that. He was great as V1. You could see why people would be fooled that he was the Shawn. Shame they didn't stick with the gimmick.

 

The Hardy Boyz were an odd pair, though, in terms of following singles careers - Matt was more solid in the ring and the V1 gimmick, being his first singles persona, suggested he was the more talented of the two, especially given that Jeff hadn't really gotten to grips with his craft yet, was still very botchy, hadn't learned quite how to exploit his natural charisma and tended to rely too much on high spots to get over.

 

It was only later, when Jeff developed, and Matt failed to do so in every way except outwards, that the illusion was shattered.

The whole V1 thing was immense. He was one of my favourite guys at that time, and it was a gimmick that actually made Shannon Moore watchable.

 

I bet there must be a list of the "Matt facts" from his entrance videos out there.. I need to look for that later.

Here is a list of some of the facts, on an angelfire page no less!

Some of these are brilliant. I can't help feeling like "Matt rarely uses turn signals" and "Matt has survived 5 car crashes" might be somewhat related.

 

Also funny to see how many of them are about food, in hindsight. That one you said isn't there though.

Some one should go through YouTube and cap the lot of them for a Fuck Yeah Matt Hardy V1 Tumblr.

For that analogy to work Jeff would of had to do much better, and Matt would have had to do far worse....

I know it's been posted on here before, but that was years ago. Hayabusa with the McMahons:

Remarkable picture that becomes even more remarkable when you see Vince's mutant thumb.
