Matt Hardy’s back! And this time, he’s fueled by revenge.
After learning that his long-time girlfriend, Lita, was having a sordid affair with Edge, Hardy adopted a vicious focus that has been previously unmatched in his career. Now Matt is out to make the lives of Lita and Edge a living hell, just as they did to him.
Adding to an already emotional period, Matt was also released from WWE during the same time. It wasn’t long before information regarding the personal hell Matt was experiencing became public knowledge. His faithful followers began to make their voices heard at WWE events across the country. In fact, Matt points out the crowd’s reaction at Madison Square Garden at the April 12 RAW for starting his “movement.”
Unable to simply sit at the sidelines while his heart was wrenching, Matt started popping up uninvited at WWE events, wreaking havoc on Edge and Lita every chance he had. He even called in and crashed Lita’s Byte This! interview, confronting her about their tumultuous relationship.
Not long after, Mr. McMahon said that Hardy was starting fires all over the place, and he couldn’t help but to pour gasoline on those fires by re-hiring Matt. With his movement apparently kicked into high gear, Hardy has a strong message for Edge – kill or be killed! Edge may have gotten the girl, but at what price?
