For those of you who remember my "Make RVD the champ already" thread, be warned this is pretty much like that. With that said on with the rant, er...show!
The WWE has a history of making wrestlers seem bigger than life as to make us thing they're the next big thing (ie: The Rock, Kurt Angle, Brock Lesnar, Hardcore Holly). Their most current and developing model of this action is none other than Randy Orton. Week in, and week out we're "treated" to another heaping serving off boredom as Orton walks down the ring only to stink up the arena with a luke-warm rehearsed promo or a disgusting display of boshed moves and limp maneuvers which usually creates a dead crowd, or a very angry internet wrestling community. Aside from Orton, there are some young guys on the roster who actually show a decent display of good inring work, and smooth linguistics. One of those young workers, is Matt Hardy.
With the inception of the Hardy boy's, Matt has shown great in ring work that was not appreciated by the fans nor the fed being that his brother Jeff usualy outshined him with his aerial assualts. But later on the best came out of Matt as the two split which led to the birth of Matt Hardy v1.0, the real Matt Hardy. With his new persona, Matt showed just how great an actor and worker he was. He even played both sides of the spectrum from Face to Heel and pulled both roles off quite well. However, even with his good work ethic he was still moved to Raw where he's now wasted. Which he shouldn't be since in him we can find the next champ.
Ok, forget the formal stuff, Hardy's got what it takes. The in-ring work which can get better with more matches with guys who've been in the business for a while. Remember his match with Benoit in the U.S. Championship Semi-finals? It was a solid bout that showed Matt had some edge to him. Even when Benoit broke Matt's nose to which he began to bleed profusely, he wiped the blood away from his mouth and had the best " I'm about to strangle you" glare in his eyes I've ever seen. And as for his mic skills, they're great. He can actually adress someone without reading off a script or rehearsing, unlike a certain Evolution member (*cough, cough, nudge nudge*), and the fans react to him way more than they do with Orton. I mean seriously, who'd you rather see getting this push? Hardy, or Orton. Which other young star deserves a push more? And you can't bring up Y2J, RVD or Booker since they aren't young anymore and they've had the chances. Come on, the kid shows a truck load of potential. Building him up for him taking the strap at say Wrestlemania 21 (next year ya morons), would be a great idea. I dunno, Se7en, RFMark, Teenweek, Spicy, anybody, tell me if I'm too much of a M'effer (Matt follower), or if I'm actually making sense.
