Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I thought Jeff had a really good match with RVD tonight. Maybe the release of Raven and Credible gave him some motivation and added incentive to perform. I think I like a heel turn for Jeff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LooseCannon25 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I agree 100% with you. He seemed motivated last night and wasn't very sloppy at all. A good solid match by Hardy, and what looks like a slow eventual heel turn could be a great thing for him. They probably threatened with releasing him and maybe he realized that this IS what he wants to do after all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I don't like Jeff Hardy and it's gonna take more then a "Heel" Turn to change my mind. But, it's good to see him trying and looking awake. Maybe it was because he was finally working against someone he likes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I'm sure they did. But, Matt didn't just turn Heel and say "Hey, I'm a bad guy now. I'm gonna fight Good guys." Matt's character Grew A lot. Have to wait and see if Jeff can do the same. I'm not subborn, I'll admit if I like something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted January 21, 2003 So, Jeff's pops are dwindling rapidly, his appearance is atrocious, and (up to last night) his performance has become alarmingly sloppy & lazy. And he gets rewarded w/ a push? I fail to see the logic in this decision. Especially since RVD, Booker, Goldust, Jericho, Helms, and Stevie (among others) all have worked hard and have been way more entertaining, yet can't make it out of the mid-card (if they're lucky).

Guest The Old Me Report post Posted January 21, 2003 Even if Jeff were to get over as a heel, I doubt he has the patience to wait all that time, like his brother did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I thought he was suspended from the house show circuit until he improved? Certainly they wouldn't not only un-suspend the guy, but give him a push, unless there was some MAJOR ass kissing going on backstage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted January 21, 2003 Some suspension. No house shows, but he gets to win matches on Raw. That's some tough love there, Vinny Mac. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest converge241 Report post Posted January 21, 2003 Wasnt Flair "mentoring" him too a while back? maybe they can work that retroactively and put Jeff with Orton, Batista, and HHH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Polish_Rifle Report post Posted January 21, 2003 He doesn't get paid if he doesn't wrestle on house shows. That's his punishment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted January 21, 2003 No house shows, but he gets to win matches on Raw. Actually, I thought the story here is "he can't win any matches" JR was making it sound like he was jobbing to the Gobbeldygooker recently or something.

Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted January 21, 2003 They should have Jeff fall under the spell of Shawn O'Haire and become the first one to fall into sin. I can't see many other ways to turn him heel and do it well and at least this gives O'Haire something to do when he comes in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Just call me Dan Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I wonder if Sean is going to try and recruit people, etc. It seems like WWE may be going for a more stable oriented show like they had back in the DX/corporation/ministry days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AndrewTS Report post Posted January 21, 2003 Were you people watching the same match? Jeff still looked slow and clumsy to me. Surprised he didn't slip and fall on the rail runner again, and I think he fucked up the seated Jawbreaker a couple times, and he had to use it about 3 times in a 3 minute or so match. Jeff still sucks, folks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only loss I remember is one to Helms on Heat. I think he won a few matches on Raw during his alleged suspension, IIRC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheGame2705 Report post Posted January 21, 2003 I hope Jeff does get recruited by O'Haire and O'Haire dominates him and they both get tremendously booed of TV forever and they both get released after jobbing in handicap to Mark Henry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He had the same match that he has been having on RAW the past few months but now that his character is slightly changed he is motivated. I don't think so.
