Or you could take a cue from the live crowds of late and act like you'd rather be watching fruit rot. Is this some sort of gag, fella? He's one of the most over guys in the whole damn company. Yeah, the line's not a direct reference to Hardy. He's one of few who gets a pop. But, if you haven't been watching WWE programming lately, the crowds, well, they're kinda' dead throughout 90 percent of the entire show.

His gimmick is: "latest guy that is so over with the crowd that Triple H takes notice and has himself put in a match with on PPV so he can be put back in his place because he hasn't paid his dues enough to get more pops than the game-uh."
This of course leads to Triple H's fanboys rushing in and claiming that the guy he beat was never even slightly over and Triple H was just trying to infuse some overness by beating him and everyone should be eternally grateful for it.

And then Triple H went and burnt down an orphanage and killed a bunch of cute puppies.

Also, he didn't kill a bunch of cute puppies, he hit them with sledgehammers and gave them to the orphans as a warning. Then he went and spinebustered nuns because he was bored with torturing the orphans.

Jeff has no real gimmick. He just goes out there as himself, which is weird enough to stand out of the crowd.
I do find it amazing that while neither Jeff nor Matt are on the Hogan/Austin/Rock level on the mic, they are both capable of making the crowd feel however they wish them to. I think that Matt is a little better in that regard (seriously, the crowd pops for damn near everything he does, even regular PUNCHES).

He's a 13 year old Linkin Park fan who's still over because of a match that happened over 6 years ago. If he never jumped off a ladder he wouldn't have a job right now.

He should do one where he takes a knock on the head and thinks he's Kevin Kline for some reason.

He's a dare-devil partier with crazy hair. Also a weird raver painter person, who smokes dope.

Think about it, what is Triple-H's gimmick? what is HBK's gimmick? what is Randy Orton's gimmick? what was Bret Hart's gimmick? They all have characters and traits but not over-bearing gimmicks.
Only a few wrestlers explicitly have a gimmick. Undertaker, John Cena, Khali are the only big time wrestlers that I can think of with a blindingly obvious gimmick.

Well what is John Cena and Khali's blindingly obvious gimmicks? John Cena isn't a rapper anymore, so what is he? and Khali isn't an unstoppable monster, because he's been beaten. a lot. So is his gimmick being tall? Undertaker isn't even an Undertaker anymore, I would definitely list Khali and Cena in with HHH and HBK as not having a gimmick so much as traits.
I think the point about Jeff is that unlike everyone you listed (except Cena) he uses his own name, added to that, he doesn't have an obvious gimmick. Which is somewhat of an oddity in WWE.

Well you might be right. I was, as you said, saying that Cena is a 'Rapper' but he does that less and less. The Undertaker is a 'Deadman' that is a clear gimmick and Khali up until recently was quite clearly definable as a 'Foreign Monster'. But not so much now. Anyway, my point was that having an obvious gimmick isn't important anymore. So why is it strange that Jeff Hardy hasn't got an easily definable gimmick?
