RD, I want to know what are your thoughts on the Matt Hardy tease that they used to psyche us up during the Lita-Edge Wedding, only for it to be a joke by Edge and Lita.
Alot of people I have talked to have seen it as really bad taste and a real low road for the WWE to go....but I wanna hear what RD has to say about the incident.

I'm not RD but,
I don't care if Matt was offended by it. I just didn't like it cause I got happy for a second thinking "ohhh, forget Kane, now we're gonna see what this angle is REALLY all about!" Then when I found out it was a joke I got mad.
But I honestly think the WWE will bring Hardy back sooner or later to feud with Edge. It could be a SUPER hot angle right now, but knowing WWE they'll wait until no one cares anymore to bring him back.

Alot of people I have talked to have seen it as really bad taste and a real low road for the WWE to go....but I wanna hear what RD has to say about the incident. I didn't understand it, to be honest. Unless they are bringing Matt back, it makes zero sense to remind fans of who really got screwed over in this match. Now if he shows up on Sunday, then it makes perfect sense. If it's just a way to continue to give Hardy the shaft, though, I don't see the point. RD |

I was pissed at first, but now after watching the replay of it on wwe.com, I find it kinda funny.

I'd have to agree with RD. What purpose did it serve? It wasn't funny, and it didn't further any angles.
It just seemed like a Russoesque jab at the smart fans, while leaving the other 75% of the audience wondering what in the hell was going on.
It was my first time watching RAW in ages, and that whole segment reminded me why I hate sports entertainment so much.
Give me matches, give me promos. Save the skits for SNL.

Dude, the whole point was to remind fans Matt Hardy was screwed in the first place...not in real life, but in the angle when Kane chokeslammed him off the stage.
Lets put it this way, if they bring him back it made sense to do it, if they don't then it was pointless.

If I can play Fanatsy Booker here. I come up with two scenerios for matt hardy to appear at the PPV on sunday.
The first secenerio...
A couple matches before the Edge/Kane match, Lita goes into Bischoff's office asking if he seen Edge anywhere. Bischoff replies no, and infact he hasn't been seen since he first arrived at the arena.
Lita is concerned but knows who is behind this. Lita blames kane for edge's disappearance so she goes out to seek help. she runs into snitsky and he volunteers to help search for Edge.
They keep searching but no luck. Unfortunely the match is up next, after confirmering with Bischoff he allows Snitsky into edge's place in the match.
Kane comes out first, laughing in an evil like matter to the ring. Lita and Snitsky come out next and Lita grabs the mic and starts to barrage Kane about him abducting Edge and snitsky agreed to be Edge's stand in for the match.
Kane is victoriuos and walks out of the ring laughing. Lita gets into the ring when suddenly video footage is shown live with a bloodied Edge tied up and gaged. But the camera suddenly turns right side up as its Edge is upside down. Foot steps are heard as Edge starts to be in real terror. Suddenly a person who's back is to the camera is tapping a baseball on his open hand.
the person turns to face the camera revealed as Matt Hardy.
Lita is in shock, as Matt hardy starts to walk toward edge , the camera falls over and all we hear is loud thuds with edge screaming in pain. Lita does her fainting bit but doesn't realize Matt is in the ring behind her and boom Twist of fate on her to the admiration of the crowd.
The second scenerio goes more like after the match. Edge beats Kane with the spear. Edge and Lita celebrate in the ring,Matt hardy's music hit. They act surprised but laugh it off pretending they pranked each other when coming throught the crowd from behind ala Marty jannety its Matt hardy.
The loud cheer of the crowd through Edge and Lita off as they turn around and see matt right before them. They get scared and Matt attacks edge. Lita hops on matt's back trying to pull him off but gets slammed fro her trouple. edge goes to attack matt but gets nailed with the twist of fate. Lita comes too and sees Matt infront of her. She starts to beg off and then she goes to embrace matt welcoming him back. matt nods and smiles then BAM! nails Lita with the side winder and stands over both of them to the roar of the crowd.
I like scenerio 1 better though.

I get the feeling that you are a better booker than anyone in WWE will be this weekend.

Unless they've got Matt Hardy signed to a new contract, then it's never good business sense to say f--- you to the fans.

I think WWE likes to pretend the you screwed Matt chants are in relation to the angle.

Hopefully,in the words of Chris Jericho,Matt Hardy will "Go to Blockbuster,buy a box of cleanex,rent the Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood,and have a good cry " |

I thought it was no different than the Bret Hart dwarf after the Montreal screwjob.
