Matt Hardy weighs in on a popular internet debate.
Earlier this week, Jeff Hardy did an interview and spoke about how he believes he would have been a bigger star than John Cena if he would have stayed on track and lived life the way he does now.
This topic sparked a ton of debate online, as fans presented their points as to why they agree or disagree with Hardy. On the latest edition of his The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy podcast, Jeff's brother Matt Hardy gave his take on the situation, saying that promos and Vince McMahon might have been factors in that situation.
“I think if Jeff would’ve been in the right headspace and had his act together like he does now, I think he could have been a top guy for a long time. I don’t know if he would’ve been bigger than Cena just because I don’t know how Jeff’s promos would have translated over, he’s a very unique character, he’s a very unique enigma, but talking especially at that time with Vince is charge, it was very important factor but he had so much equity and people were so invested in him because of his charisma and the mystique behind Jeff Hardy and he really is an anomaly. There’s something about him that just draws you to him, he has it, which a lot of people don’t have. It would have been really interesting to see, like I know they want someone typically as a top guy who’s really well spoken, very articulate and stuff and that’s not exactly Jeff’s strong suit. But it would have been very interesting to see if he would have been in this headspace, how far he could have gone. I definitely think he could have been a top guy and a multiple time world champion and have a few years where he was dominant on top.”
