And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
Jim Ross said Matt Hardy is a no question Hall of Famer and now my world is spinning.

I think the Hardy Boyz alone with have a case (in whatever hypothetical Hall we're talking) but the stuff Matt's done the last few years has basically changed the business. Lucha Underground came first but it seems impossible to argue that Matt didn't popularize the entire cinematic, fantasy thing that Impact adopted, AEW has incorporated, and now WWE is using. Not a lot of guys have had that kind of impact on the business.

I know but like... my bar is Edge, always has been as posted in many many HoF threads (lol Big Daddy) and the idea of Matt Hardy going in before Edge has an argument but it conflicts with everything I grew up with when they were both young.

To be honest the whole full career thing is kind of a late stage save. He did some fun stuff with V1 and Big Money Matt but like he also had a LOT of cringey, bad stuff. There was a lot of time where Matt was either the boring other brother, "Fatt Hardy", or the really unstable looking period he went through. Five years ago he was running Omega and a "loltna" punchline. He really turned things around with Broken Matt and it salvaged his legacy and kind of erased that bad stuff and showcased the potentially forgotten good.

And the crazy thing is going back to WWE could have potentially squandered it since they did nothing with him and stifled that revolutionary hot stuff. Getting out and into AEW shot him back to the top of the business and probably is going to be his end legacy with the way he's focused on working with young guys.

it is fun watching AEW have a new nominee for best on interviews every few months from someone long considered after their prime and useless

few months ago it was Jake the Snake, now we're up to Taz

PS2 had Shadow of the Colossus so it won.
