Since "because you touch yourself at night" isn't an option, I'll do with "clean and sober for 45 minutes". Makes the most sense to me.

I think it's because he's hugely over and appeals to young fans, and his matches can be exciting to watch.
My God, I just put over Jeff Hardy.

Been a Hardy fan for years; its nice to see him get his shot. He's a great athlete, appealing to fans both young and old, and is hugely over. I don't see why not. |

The fans pop big time for him. His matches, though heavily spotty, get crowds going like no other. So he's just really moving em now.

He wrestles good matches. The crowd is quite obviously wild for him. He's paid plenty of dues. He's inarguably a veteran now. What more do you need?

I think his push seems huge also because of the fact that Jim Ross puts him over more than almost anybody on the show. How many people nowadays does JR get legitimately excited about when he calls their matches? Not many.

He's been working for WWE for longer than the average fan has been alive. That's never a bad thing.

Well I hope he doesn't go the "Lashley Route" if he makes it.
He has barely any mic skills, and we all loved Lashley before he opened his mouth.

He's over.
Really, really over.
Just like Punk's ECW push, they can't ignore fan reaction forever.

It is simple. He is EXTREMELY over with the fans. He is dedicated (putting his body on the line in those incredible ladder matches for example), he has been around for awhile, and he gives it his all. I know that some people don't see Hardy as the main eventer, but him and Matt both deserve it in my honest opinion.

Its the classic royal rumble title match.
in order to put more main eventers in the royal rumble to increase its appeal and number of people who have a chance to win it, they put a lesser known guy in the title match.
look at the past few years....Mark Henry, Bob Holly, Kennedy (he was lesser known last year)

He's a marketable talent who sticks out amongst the other superstars, and he gets everyone in the crowd popping- girls with his looks, and kids/older fans with his stunt show.
And while being able to work a mic well can seal the deal as far as being able to generate money, it's not the end-all-be-all.
I still do not see a "Jeff Hardy Era" on the horizon, but that's just me.

It's so that when HHH squashes him later and sends him directly back to midcarding, he will have for those brief moments looked like a genuine threat.
For more on that please see Benjamin, Shelton.
