Oh, brother! The Hardy Boyz feud is on.
All of the speculation about the identity of Jeff Hardy’s stalker appears to have ended when Matt Hardy smashed his brother over the head with a chair to cost him the WWE title against Edge last night at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view.
As anyone who regularly reads this blog knows, I have been advocating a feud between Matt and Jeff Hardy almost since the inception of Ring Posts. And despite Internet reports last month that Christian Cage would be revealed as Jeff’s stalker, I always thought it made more sense business-wise to be Matt.
There were subtle hints for weeks that Matt was going to turn on his brother, and Matt’s look of frustration and disappointment as he sat on the ring steps after losing to Jack Swagger last night clinched it for me. His failure fanned the flames of his jealousy over his brother’s success and pushed him over the edge.
The other dramatic moment on the show occurred when Shawn Michaels was contemplating what to do after the referee was incapacitated during the John Cena-JBL world heavyweight title match. Michaels’ actions were ambiguous, so story line will continue. Tonight’s Raw should be interesting to say the least.
As expected, the Royal Rumble match came down to Randy Orton and Triple H, with Orton winning, which was absolutely the right call. For More
