Group Question :: WWE, ECW, & TNA

Do you take Jeff Hardys WWE Title victory seriously?

Superman December 15, 2008 20:48:25

It's been my opinion that 90% of Jeff Hardys popularity is from the female fan population, based on his "cuteness" instead of his ability. The other 10% comes from loyal face cheering fans that only root for the good guy. That number would be higher, but I suspect fans that root solely on the face/heel plotline have disappeared.

I don't think a lot of discerning fans like Jeff Hardy. Yes he risks his body for death defying leaps, but I don't think the guy can really wrestle beyond that. He certainly can't excite anyone on the mic. I'd rather hear Santino Marella chat for a half hour before hearing Hardy talk for 5 minutes.

The shame is I think Matt Hardy is the better wrestler of the two, but he's not as "cute" and doesn't color his hair funky.

So, all that said which of the following capsulizes youre opinion of the new WWE Champion:
I'm a girl and he's just dreamy, yippy!

    The first thing i said when i saw jeff pin edge was "What has the WWE championship become?" Trash like jeff hardy should have never been in that match, i'd rather have koslov the match.

    its about time he got it to cause he has worked his butt off to get that for years for a chance and it was in his reach im glad he took it :) and jeff isnt trash either like people say thats just his style and its been that way as long as i can remember and it fits him and jeff is a awsome wrestler with insane stunts and i think he can be a good champ it time to have a wild one for a champ :) lol

    well the bottom line is: now that he has the belt, are we going to see if he has what it takes to hold on to that belt and if so, how long? we don't need another CM Punk, don't get me wrong Punk's good but he can't defeat someone like Randy Orton, if you can beat Orton you are worthy of championship material.

    I like Hardy i think he will do good but they should have waited till WM25 so the build up between him and Edge could have been better and if Christian came back they could have the whole who took out Jeff thing be him and that could break off into a feud with Matt. Im glad that they are putting more edge into his character (it needs it). Or it could have been Edge vs. Christian at No Way Out winner for No.1 contendership at WM25 against Edge. I'd like to see a proper build up to a big match which WWE hasn been doing latley. And it should have been a fatal four-way at instead of a triple threat with Kozlov. I hope they dont do a Batista vs. Cena 2 at mania cause im going and Cena is guarenteed a win so then they can fight again or they will surprise us with Batista winning and Cena goes for revenge. As long as neither is champ im good!

    You make a very good point about plot buildup. It seems non-existant these days. Though I dislike Hardy as champ, I think you're right. If they've pegged him as the next big thing he should have gone over at WM25. That gives plenty of time to build a feud with Edge, considering their tag histories the feud is tailor made. If they do get Christian back he and Matt could be used in the build up. Have Hardy win the Rumble, because he hasn't won it before and I have a feeling whoever competes for the other title will have won it before. And here's a fun twist, make the title match a ladder match, something both are masters at.

    But the writers blow their loads way too soon.

    I don't mind the unmasked Kane, but he needs to Undertaker it up a bit. He's become very unthreatening (unless you're a Diva). The guy gets into way too many feuds involving a girl. He had a great spot as the unbeatable ECW Champ. They should have changed the format of ECW to nothing but Hardcore and left him there to rule. Then, after 9 months or a year let him show up on Raw or Smackdown and tear through everyone until he's in the title picture. And STOP letting him talk. Stop making him some psycho ex boyfriend or wannabe boyfriend. Make him the quiet insane unstoppable guy. Build that up and give him the title for someone to go after.

    well part of it is his fault too
    he doesnt want the title (unlike Batista) and wants the younger guys to have it
    and they should have left ECW hardcore an they should put it on a different channel nobody is going to sci fi to see one hour of the not so good talent
    and the whole talent exchange thing needs to end and the hardcore title should go back to ecw with some better from a couple of shows
    CM punk should go back so he can main event there and kozlov should too
    cause i noticed he does better in matches with not so built wrestlers than he does with guys like triple h

    I think Jeff puts his body on the line and is great in ring worker, but he has two strikes and the 3rd means he get terminated from WWE which if it happens to him while he is champ will make the title and WWE look back. And to take off of Edge who just won it was a little questinable to me. I dont like short title reigns, it takes away the prestige the title has. So to me Cena and Edge both came back and on their returns they automatically win titles is a little questionable in my eyes, but I font write the story lines.

    Two belts has increased the chance that someone not worthy is gonna get one. Khali? CM Punk? RVD? Jeff Hardy? Rey Mysterio? Heavyweight Champs?

    I think Rey Mysterio and maybe RVD definitely deserved those title reigns. Fans love Mysterio, and when it comes to ability, the guy is phenomenal. So he is 5"6'...lol. That's pretty small. But the guy is one hell of a wrestler and entertainer. He wasn't the longest reigning champion, and probably shouldnt have been, but give the man his due credit...that belt totally belonged around his waist.

    I can grant Mysterio, I guess my question was the title they gave him. The WWE Title seems like it would have been a better option. Thats the title with history and with a more diverse range of Champions. They don't even call it the WWE World Heavyweight Title anymore. HBK was small when he won it, so was Macho and so was Eddie G. The World Heavyweight Title has the name Heavyweight in it. I'm about three inches taller and a little heavier than Rey, and I feel I'd be too small for that belt.

    But this is the problem you get with two World Titles. It would have been fun to watch a two month reign with Rey and the WWE title. But I don't think he should have won at Wrestlemania and I don't think he should have won the belt he had.

    I'll always argue against RVD. He was a great worker, but I never liked his look. He was also a small guy and most of his popularity came out of hardcore wrestling, which is hardly wrestling at all. Don't get me wrong, I like hardcore matches as much as the next guy. But I think there is a subset of fans out there that thinks hardcore is real wrestling. It stunt work with wrestling thrown in. I'd much rather watch the technical show Hart and Michaels put on in the Wrestlemania Iron Man match than watch a hardcore match with RVD and say Jeff Hardy. They'll put on a good show, but the technical part won't be there.

    Haha wow...harsh. You know, I hate to knock wrestlers, but something about the Hardys just doesn't click with me. I don't know what it is. Then I got a clue when Jeff went on a hardcore rampage and hit everyone with a chair. This guy should be a heel. But then he would lose a lot of fans.

    I don't like Jeff only because of his looks. I do personally think that Jeff is a really good wrestler. He isn't given much chances he can't go beyond because the WWE is holding him back. Hell I am ok with anyone getting the Title except edge. Plus Jeff is bad on the mic because he never gets his chance with the mic. You can't tell me that years of not using the might you would just be amazing at it when you finally start to use it.

    When they have the titles, it's not that exciting. Triple H should have that title. Jeff is an okay wrestler but he does much better when he's paired up with Matt. What the hell is up with all the makeup he has on lately?

    I loved Jericho as Champion! The only guy on Raw that is a better pure heel, in my opinion, is William Regal.

    I was thrilled with Jericho back. He's a great heel. Regal is as well. I think JBL is just an asshole in real life so he plays the part well. So does Orton. Jerichos work is great too.

    The two best guys on the mic right now, though, are Jericho and Santino. That little guy is gold. If they could just get him a few good moves and play up heel cheating he'd be a fun guy to hold on to belts.

    Personally, I would like to see a stable of Regal and Marella and Finlay. Regal is the guy chasing the World Title and the leader. Marella actually holds gold and plays second mouth (like the Rock in the Nation). Finlay is the bruiser that gets the work done. I'd call them the European Union.
