Konnan on: could Jeff Hardy be a bigger star than John Cena?

[@KeepinIt100OFFICIAL]

KONNAN tells the full story about his real life heat with JOHN CENA kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3azloCppNtll5Y

[@gimmiebackmybike1831]

Jeff Hardy really never learned how to wrestle safe, he would have these crazy matches but the guy was beating himself up badly every single time.

[@liamstewart4472]

The sweet irony about Jeff Hardy is the thing that made him so popular was also the same thing holding him back. He did some of the coolest, craziest bumps ever and people went wild for them but they were hurting himself so much that he needed to pile up on the booze and "medics" to help him get through it.

[@loooooooongstanding2141]

Jeff Hardy had it all but he threw it away. He wouldn't change his style.

[@TheNinthHeart]

He’s like 5’9 & weighs a buck 50 soaking wet 🤔

I’m sure someone already mentioned it in the comments, but in 2008 more people searched on Google for Jeff Hardy than Obama… And Obama won the presidency that year. I went to shows around those years and it was unbelievable. And Konnan is right, women love Jeff. He will always be a huge what if.

[@markmann5539]

Hardy is just like Bryan Danielson: great wrestler but not ready to be the leader.

[@philwalsh8975]

Jeff Hardy is a bigger deal in TNA than he was in AEW. Let that sink in.

[@Am0ment0fB]

Jeff could have also been physically bigger too. Well, according to Jeff Hardy anyways. Ha.

[@antonioHollywoodLA]

Jeff is good but his stick work might be disliked by other fans

[@dngn4774]

I think even John Cena would agree that there was a 3-5 year period where Jeff Hardy was on his level maybe even more over depending on which demographics of the fans you asked. Personally, I think his gimmick would have still peaked even if he stayed clean, but it creates a lot of fun hypotheticals.

[@BeHumbleW025]

No. Jeff Hardy never evolved beyond backyard wrestling. Always chasing the high spots that are good on a highlight reel but forgettable as time passes. His TNA run as ‘The antichrist of pro wrestling’ was suppose to be the phase where his charm and charisma do the heavy lifting and take a lighter but effective style in the ring. But his promos were trash. So he relied heavily on his high spots that were taxing on his body and subsequently his drug habits persisted.

[@stealthmode1303]

There’s a lot of new fans that don’t understand the 2005-2010 era where Cena and Hardy intersected. Cena was heavily booed for most of that time. Sure the reactions were mixed in some places, but the overall sentiment around Cena was he was boring, pushed on fans too hard and his character was stale. Hardy’s popularity kept building every year since his 1st return and in 08-09 he was WWE’s top star in terms of merchandise and fan reactions. Had he stayed clean and started relying on less high spots (he wasn’t a bad wrestler) he would have been at worst, on Cena’s level if not higher.

[@rosspearman2808]

I agree with Joe, Jeff was organically over unlike corporate Cena

[@jimcrack3776]

No way cena was a mainstream star and the reason people went sour on him because Vince kept him on top because nobody else could take his spot

[@mansion1719]

Jeff Hardy was never top guy material. He was a top guy but never THE top guy.

[@RealJohnnyRingo]

I like Jeff, but he wasn't big enough physically and was dog shit on the mic.

[@ninthlife1745]

I'm saying as a massive Jeff Hardy fan: you guys are crazy. John Cena is like the textbook example of what a WWE top guy should be. Hardy, while a legend, was never that guy.

[@johnnytheworldowner9130]

Was there ever a Jeff Hardy vs John Cena match?

[@jonolivarez8650]

Yes actually lol gave it away free on raw

[@Carvel0]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 No F'N way

I Jeff's prime when the crowd would pop you can hear the women go crazy for the guy.

[@jasondouglas152]

I honestly could never understand why anyone liked Jeff Hardy.

[@KeepinIt100OFFICIAL]

This is why I love topics like this: they always open up the comments to debate.

[@russellcampbell3500]

I liked the Hardy boys but individually they lack something for me. And when Jeff did sting wrong he fell off in my book.

[@ThomasWilliams-hj2hu]

Jeffy Hardy was more popular

[@sayheyguy]

You guys need to spell check your AI thumbnails, lol

[@jackiejones3296]

I was always a Jeff Hardy fan but this is just crazy talk. I mean can anyone name a classic Jeff Hardy promo? Or a famous match he did that didn't involve crazy bumps in gimmick matches?

[@Leowuf]

He could of been a much bigger star yeah not bigger then Cena though WWE would of never let him be bigger then Cena and back then thats all it took

[@johnnysacks727]

Jeff Hardy Would and could have been a Bigger Star than Cena. But John Cena Had the Go Getter Attitude Jeff Hardy Didn’t. Jeff Hardy Was Great in the Ring but his Promos hmmm 50/50.

[@TheNinthHeart]

Neither drew any money. No one has watched pro rasslin since 2003. It peaked during the golden age (1948-61), and then had a resurgence as a syndicated children’s television series based out of Manhattan (1986-89). Had a brief pop in relevance once more (1997-99), and then went right back into the hole of irrelevance.
