MATT FREAKIN HARDY!

[@Deffected]

Why do people act like that was a slam dunk from Heyman? For a guy known for his skills on the mic, I found that to be extremely weak. Did Edge get backstage heat for it or something? They made it a TV angle so it seems like Edge got his end wet then dipped out scot free

Crazy how that situation was the catalyst to Edge breaking out as a star he embraced the real life heat he got from Fans and became one of the greatest heels in history

[@Shank5ter]

Incorrect actually. Edge was already Mr. money in the bank by the time the scandal came out. He very much had a rocket strapped to his back already, the irl heat helped a lot, but to say that this scandal was the reason he broke out as a star is objectively false.

[@AlexYBITW]

[@danieljoseph9439]

​@AlexYBITW Sorry man, but he was right. Edge already had that rocket strapped to his back and this angle merely made his ascent that much faster. The disappointing thing, was that this was supposed to help Matt break through to the next level as a big star.. but, he dropped the ball.

[@AlexYBITW]

@@danieljoseph9439 Edge had nothing strapped to his back. He even lost the title right after he won it and had to prove himself again that he was worth the main event scene. And Matt didn't drop anything, WWE did.

[@evilstarlegacy]

@AlexYBITW Edge feuded with Chris Benoit and Shawn Michaels, including getting a win over HBK at the RR, got paired with Lita, won the MITB, got a WHC title shot against Batista and feuded with Kane before Matt Hardy even came back to WWE. It's disingenuous to claim the Matt Hardy feud is what made him a main eventer. I even remember him telling Matt not make his return at his expensive and that, unlike him, he earned his main event stripes. The feud with Matt probably helped boost him further as a monster heel, but he was well on his way there without him.

[@MatTMurdockNT]

It's funny to me how seemingly everyone that was actually involved with this has clearly moved on. Really now, the people that are the most invested are us fans. Like it was a shitty situation, but it was also almost 20 years ago and everybody involved has taken some form of accountability and moved on

I am always suspicious about comments like these.

[@lilPopper]

@@mshine7991 how Matt handled the situation publicly was wrong. He was obviously in an emotional state like everyone is during a break up. But there is a line where it should not have crossed -- that balance of separating one's private life and professional career faded away.

That feud has been dead long enough to buy a beer in the afterlife. Yet they probably still get people daily saying how "Lita is a h0e", "Matt is a cuck", "Edge is a homewrecker"- When honestly, those three probably couldn't care less, not because anything that was done then was justified, but because that's how aging and life is.

Matt didn't care about her. He never visited her while she was out injured. He said he wasn't that into her in his book. That's not love. He was a crap boyfriend and she traded up.

[@henrylaz6252]

Weird how everyone criticizes Lita for being a cheater but not Edge

[@SheanWalsh46]

If there is anything, the true victim of this love triangle shit was Edge's second wife and his children. Edge was already a married man during the time when he cheated on Lita.

[@multiyapples]

Your comment makes no sense because AEW is making business out of a bad situation. That's how they got Perry back in the fold. They're literally doing what Adam is saying here. Lol

[@coke8045]

@Ysocdude Okay?

[@snakeshadows6993]

​@@coke8045 It hasn't worked out well for AEW at all. They released the footage of the real life altercation in an effort to boost ratings and disparage CM Punk. But all they did was make CM Punk even more popular. If they really wanted to disparage Punk, they should have released the footage around the time of the incident. Not months after CM Punk was already settled in the WWE.

[@coke8045]

@@snakeshadows6993 It worked out great lol. Perry is way more over than he was. It's not even about Punk anymore. Perry's back, The Elite has taken a completely new shape since that footage. It was bold of them to do it, but it worked out better than expected. I get the criticism, sure, but hey... Cry me a river ;)

The bucks shouldn't have bailed on meeting either punk and squashing it. That would have been big business.

[@DementedXShenzi]

Let's be real, Lita got te worst of it when Edge was the one who cheated on his wife with one of his best friend's girlfriends. Lita wasn't right, but she hadnt taken a vow to ve faithful to one person for the rest of her life.

[@Mmrwok92]

100% she took the worst of it. Still to this day, when I see this subject being brought up, it’s always her name dragged through the mud.

[@SoThatGuyJohn]

Both were equally at fault. I’ll never understand how some fans try to place majority of the blame on Lita because “she was the one in the relationship”, when Edge was literally married at the time. Edge cheated on his wife to be with Lita. Lita cheated on Matt to be with Edge. Both were unfaithful in their relationships.

[@kingpeso706]

I think I’m the only person that hated Edge more than Matt. The day he speared Cena thru that table at one night stand did it for me

[@jakieboy9995]

Not a massive Copeland fan but he’s right - whatever happened, happened and if they can all move on so should the fans. Too much ownership over offences from public perspective when it’s issues to do with individuals involved.

[@HawaiiFoodAndFun]

I had a wwe tryout at a raw once and was having a nice conversation with Bryan Danielson (who had just started and was in nexus). We were both "indy" wrestlers. Edge walked over, looked at me and pushed me out of the conversation. I felt disappointed but I was a little fish in a very big pond. Plus I chalked it up to maybe he was having a rough day. We all have those.

Glad to hear. Nobody's perfect

[@Agul1981]

Can't exactly expect Adam to apologize forever but there's a distinct lack of ownership for why things went bad to begin with. He's talking like there's no one to blame or the blame is on them both equally, and if he felt that way, it'd be interesting to know why. He's answering questions without saying anything.

[@ThisIsMeAD]

Can’t really disagree more, I think he’s tired of something that happened twenty years ago still casting a shadow over his life when he’s apologized for it ten fold and shown that he’s grown as a person, and people like you who still can’t seem to let it go are the reason for it

[@Agul1981]

@@ThisIsMeAD Nobody said anything about not letting things go, he's being asked questions about his career and they're talking about one of the most high profile periods of his career. Again, the first thing I mentioned was not looking to see Adam apologize, but the mature thing to do is also not to gloss over the things you've done. Nobody is trying to villainize Edge, but a mistake is forgetting your wallet when you go to the grocery store, an affair is a chain of conscious choices. You say cast a shadow like he's some kind of victim, but both Adam (and Matt, to some extent) benefitted from controversy. Would have just been nice to hear something that even vaguely suggested it was on him to make things right with Matt.

[@flandersnatch2285]

"I made the bed" ... I have to lay in it. That is distinctly taking ownership of the root issue.

[@ACGWander]

[@TimedRevolver]

Dude said "I made the bed." Also, in response to everyone makes mistakes "Mine happened to be on live television." He owns up to it, you're just one of those 'fans' who can't move on. Matt's past it. Edge is past it. Lita is past it. Yet here you are, still whinging like a kid who got shot in Call of Duty, screaming and crying like an idiot.

Literally nothing in wrestling was ever as important to as an Edge and Christian vs Hardy match. Matt has always been my favorite ever, but all 4 of those guys were the literal backbone for nearly a decade.

The Hardy Boyz vs Edge and Christian… Easily one of the top tag rivalry’s ever. The solo shyt just solidified that even more.

I think deep down I knew that the person who executes the big move off the top of the cage generally comes off worse, but I could have done without Edge telling me.
