This feud was the epitome of suspending ones disbelief. I remember as a kid thinking Matt actually snuck into the stadium the Raw he attacked Edge. Cutting his mic when he brought up RoH and telling WWE to kiss his arse. It was absolutely insane, but in a super cool/entertaining way.

[Artgod]

Matt clearly wants to move past that period in his life.

[OfficerDoofyInTown]

Taking that sh't all together and make it as a part of his work just proves of how good and professional Matt is. He got hurt from what happened and yet he went out there and did his job as he was told to. He took that betrayal as a true warrior. Vince didn't deserved a guy like him.
Neither is Lita...

[FaysalIsGoated]

It’s crazy that this real life affair made Edge a star. The Wrestling World is a crazy and weird place sometimes.

[Duality_of_Man]

Man, poor Matt, still can't believe all that stuff happened, and then Vince was like "BOOK IT!"

[DeaundreMJ]

“The stories just leaked”. I wonder who leaked it…..but seriously Matt doesn’t seem bitter anymore. He was part of reinventing a visual directing style of wrestling. The man has grown into gem from what I’ve seen. Thanks for this Clip

[TheUltimateVoid]

1:00 that little laugh, Broken Matt is trying to come out lol

[moondogrex]

I remember Matt being the first wrestler to use the internet so well that WWE brought him back

[zbug]

The fact that Matt went through that and still was composed enough to do business is amazing, better man than me.

[tafariali-alkebulan]

The work/shoot storyline that created the Rated R Superstar

[blankko]

From that day on i have always respected Matt Hardy as a true great profesional cause despite of what happened he still worked a safe match with Edge

[mykeeee]

This was the time they shoulda push Matt into a wwe champion

[hlecaros]

Matt Hardy is a true gentleman!!! kept his personals issues aside and stayed so professional!!! it takes balls!!!

[niv]

I love how Lita still uses twist of fate as her finisher

[dswnetwork]

I don't think I'd've been able to make something like that into part of my work. Matt Hardy is made of other stuff

[darrylwallace]

Kudos to Matt for being professional, the guy is a dad now with a family so I’m sure it must be annoying at times to revisit such an awkward period in his life.

[gustavocardenas]

I just want to congratulate Matt Hardy, he has a very beautiful family now. ❤

[yvngdragon]

Matt is clearly in good spirit's mad respect hope him and Jeff end up with some more gold soon in AEW 🐲💯

[Fgdftgggb]

Its crazy to think in the end Matt has a family Edge has a family now aswell and Lita is single with no kids

[sammyitaliano]

In 2005, both Raw and Smackdown had crazy storylines that summer: Edge/Hardy/Lita saga on Raw and Guerrero/Mysterio on Smackdown
