Jeff Hardy Says He And Matt Were Told To ‘Go Home’ After Ladder Leg Drop Spot At WrestleMania 25

Jeff Hardy says he and Matt Hardy were told to ‘go home’ for their match at WrestleMania 25 after a marquee spot in the bout.

At WrestleMania 25, Matt and Jeff Hardy met in one of the biggest matches of either of their careers, as they faced off in an Extreme Rules match at the ‘Showcase Of The Immortals’ following Matt’s heel turn at the 2009 WWE Royal Rumble PPV. The match was also the first time Matt used the ‘Twist Of Hate’ variation of his finishing move.

While speaking on the Open and Direct Discussions podcast, Jeff Hardy spoke about taking the first ever Twist Of Hate in a steel chair, noting that he and Matt had been gold to ‘go home’ after

“I can say I was the first one to ever take the first Twist Of Hate in the chair. Because after the big leg drop, there was a signal through the referee to like, go home then, but my exact words, I had two words for that, and it was like, ‘fuck that,’ and then we did the Twist Of Hate, and I was so proud of the way it looked.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Jeff explained why he gave up doing motocross. You can read more about that here.
