Jeff Hardy lied about his age to get his first televised match with WWE when he debuted on an episode of Raw versus Razor Ramon on May 23, 1994. Hardy is now 40-years-old and his career has spanned nearly a quarter of a century.
Planeta Wrestling asked Hardy about the most memorable and intimidating opponent he has faced in the ring. The Hardy Boyz began a feud with Brock Lesnar in April 2002 which included Lesnar’s first televised WWE match at Backlash against Jeff Hardy. The Beast Incarnate was known as The Next Big Thing during that time and he defeated Hardy via KO.
Hardy was quick to say Lesnar is the most intimidating opponent he’s faced by far while noting that the WWE Universal Champion is the real deal. Hardy also opened up about how great it was to wrestle a hero of his like Shawn Michaels.
“Intimidating by far is Brock Lesnar. He is like the real deal, you know,” Hardy said. “I gotta say Shawn Michaels, when I got to wrestle him and beat him in ’08, ’09 that was just beyond a dream come true and he still to this day my favorite wrestler ever.”
