Jeff Hardy's return in late 2006 quickly made him a major star in WWE, even bigger than previously. His mentality and outlook seemed more mature compared to previously and in ring, he was much better. I loved a bunch of his tag matches with Matt and of course the ladder match with Johnny Nitro stands out to me. What did you think of Jeff Hardy's return in 2006?
It was refreshing to see him more focused and in his element upon his return. He had a string of matches where you can visibly see he's in a better place mentally whether he lost or won. It's always nice seeing his second run of matches whenever I watch my jeff hardy DVD. Haha also sick vid as always!
Man, Jeff hardy returning in 2006 to me was epic, Because he go on there and probably had the best run of his carrer in 2008-2009, I was always one of the biggest jeff hardy fanboy. So him returning might not seem huge to some people compared to his other return, But to me this was special.
Making Jeff Hardy a Main eventer was one of the biggest and best decisions wwe ever made. Jeff was a Generation defining Star. He brought wwe on screen for so many kids outside of America.
@@pleaseshutup7053 No i think the Matt and Jeff rivary got the perfect build. Matt was Jealous and coast Jeff the Titel. That was perfect Story telling. And at WM IT was no Titel, Just Personal Business.
@@meistercerberus4070 They definitely should have fought for the title if Matt was jealous he could get his revenge by taking Jeff’s title. Jeff was the man on smackdown so he should have walked in wrestlemania with the title. Jeff hardy should have been champion until cm punk cashed in on him. Way better than edge and cena having more meaningless reigns with Jeff Hardy’s belt
Jeff is what spiderman is to marvel or what allen iverson is to the nba to pro wrestling, isn’t really the best or most skilled but people just gravitate and relate to them and you can’t force that. They just ooze coolness and charisma. They just have IT. It’s inexplicable.
2008-2009 Jeff hardy was the most over superstar ive seen in a while. Its sad that his addictions ruined a lot of pushes for him. He could have so many more championship runs.
The fact that he immediately competed in 4 ladder matches in the span of year all over again like it was 00-01 & delivered in all of them just like he did in the 00-01 era was impressive in itself. He brought a breath of fresh air to the roster during 2006
2006 became the rise of Jeff Hardy. From a mid card player to a main eventer. At the one time he was more popular than John Cena and 2008 Triple H and CM Punk.
I always liked this run of Jeff Hardy. Highlights of this run IMO include the ladder match at Armageddon, the Steel Cage Match at New Year's Revolution, and the Money in the Bank Match at WrestleMania 23. Jeff just had this amazing body of matches in his second run that far exceed his first(with the exception of the TLC Match at WrestleMania X-Seven).
Was a huge fan of Jeff from the SD games but never actually seen him wrestle. Obviously, I was also a fan of Matt and followed closely his rivalry with Edge and it blew my mind as a kid when Jeff showed up on Raw.
@@jordannewsom3606 ok but if they knew Jeff was coming back that year he should have been on the roster as soon as they made the game and no it wasn’t because ik the game not finished until October
@@WowSuchGaming2009 Who said they did? And also the game was released in October and it was already finished for two months. They're inspections in the game if they need to patch things before releasing.
I remember the vignettes for his return. I was about 9-10 years old. I just found out TNA was a thing around the time so I missed Jeff’s run there. So for a 3 good years (His match with The Rock being the last I saw before his initial departure). I was waiting for my favorite to come back after years. I remember wondering if I was dreaming when I seen the return vignette and when I settled down I was marking out like crazy. From a life long fan, Jeff Hardy I hope you come back stronger and unbeatable. (Outside of the ring)
Back in the 2000s, I mainly only watched WWF/WWE because of Team Xtreme, I remember me and my 3rd grade best friend being hyped when the rumor leaked in 06 of Jeff returning… fun times especially when it was revealed that he was gonna be playable in Smackdown Vs. Raw 2008… This videos giving me nostalgia
Aw yes! This was both one of my and and my brother’s most fondest memories of 2006. Not only was it this year, that me and my family’s love for WWE was at its peak, but seeing the return of one of the most badass daredevils in all of wrestling history, just gave me and my brother so much happiness and our love for him skyrocketed like no other. He truly was and forever will be one of the most badass wrestlers of all time. Thanks for the nostalgia, homie.🙂
He was goated and had some amazing matches, wit Shawn Michaels and John cents non payper view. who can forget that dx hardy boyz cm punk tag match wit kofi. From 2006 to 2010 Jeff had all the love!
as a kid i was to oblivious to know that TNA existed and when Jeff wasn’t in WWE i just assumed that he was backstage or not wrestling. sad how many of his last youthful years weren’t spent with wwe
What if… Matt Hardy debuted his “Broken” persona in 2005 and messed with Edge? “BROTHER ADAM AND SISTER AMY, IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO GET DELETED!!!! YESSSSS!!!!!”
the cade and murdoch slander is villainous. As a southern boy, these were these kinds of teams i liked. Haas and Benjamin were my faves but i always like the tight workers.
2006 is a good year for jeff hardy because of his face paint and the fact that he is a great wrestler but would wish that jeff hardy would be In The WWE roster once again.
Before watching the video, when Jeff came back, I was a 12 year old kid, I didn’t know Jeff, I knew Matt because of his feud with Edge, and when they teased Matt and Jeff came out I still lost my shit, I didn’t know why I was so hype I just was and the music was amazing, an amazing time of my life
I remember checking forums & Jeff Hardy fan sites for info on when he would come back 😂 as a kid I was tired of it being a mission to find Jeff Hardy action figures & having to make him in everything after Smackdown Shut Your Mouth so I was anticipating this heavily like Bray Wyatt fans right now 😂
I was a Cade n Murdoch fan, I was really into WWE at the time and I really thought they had good chemistry and that the tag scene overall was good. I liked the juxtaposition of the Hardy's and the rednecks
I was never a big fan of Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch but I don’t think it’s their fault. They were talented and could play heel pretty well but they weren’t given much to do by the company which was the case with the tag team division as a whole back then.
my aunt got my cousin and I tickets to a house show right when they were feuding with the country boys. we were little middle school Hardy fan boys and hated Cade and Murdoch. I remember us talking shit to them after they lost lol but after we left we were driving past Hooter's and those country bastards were just standing there shooting the shit so my aunt was like LOOK BOYS and pulled in even though we were saying NOOOOO!! the next 10 minutes was a blur. one of them attempted to sign my brown leather wallet with a black sharpie then I said some stupid shit I'm not sure what but whatever it was they took as me implying wrestling was fake and they proceeded to punk us the fuck out, shit was straight terrifying....years later we asked my aunt what she remembered about that night. she said she didn't remember us almost getting whipped but said they were hitting on her lmao
Cade and Murdoch were okay…like I didn’t hate them nor did I overly enjoy them. The WWE tag team division at that time was kindof meh aside from a few teams.
There’s a point where you have to ask, how many times can a guy screw up. Every time he has a “return” the countdown starts as to when he will inevitably blow it. At this point if you truly support him and care as a fan, you would not want him back in the business when he clearly cannot be responsible for himself. The pro wrestling lifestyle is clearly too much for him.

Jeff's return in 2006 definitely made him an massive top star. His run from 2006-2009 was amazing as he was arguably the most popular babyface in WWE
Merch wise he was the highest seller between late 07 and early 09. Outselling Cena and HHH etc.
His 2008 WWE Championship chase from beginning of the year to the end of the year was amazing storytelling
06-09 Jeff was golden

Jeff's 2nd run from 2006 to 2009 is by a country mile his best.

Any match with Jeff vs nitro are literally my favourites always got so pumped when they would fight for the IC title
My favorite Jeff Hardy match from 2006 was, Jeff Hardy vs Umaga that was one of my favorite matches from his return to the WWE in 2006.💯
They should have done more with edge and Jeff hardy fighting each other. Instead of losing to edge and going to fight for the ic title
good times 2006 i first encounter of jeff hardy as a young wwe fan days
Matt should've gotten an IC title run its ashame he didnt
He should have got a wwe title run
