The Roid Rage
Getting Noticed By Management
I don't know how many of you caught Smackdown this week but did anyone check out Jeff Hardy's freak out??? It looks like a possible heel turn. I liked it, he reminded me of Edge and I think it could work. There was a thread recently about who should turn heel and all of us seemed to overlook Jeff Hardy because he's uber over with the fans, but as I pointed out with John Cena I think that is why now is a great time for Jeff Hardy to do it.
All the same things I said about John Cena could apply to Jeff Hardy. He's lost a lot recently, and been through enough that you could believe he'd have a lot of hate and anger built up to turn. Also because he is over so huge with so many fans it would be a hug shocker to see him freak out and go super heel. All the kids would cry, the older fans would ask "Why Jeff Why?" and the people who didn't like him would see it as cooler to like him and gain him more accolades. I never say that coming up until the show then I realized what was going on.
In case you missed it and wonder what I am talking about Jeff Hardy and Triple H had a tag match against Morrison&Miz. Before the match there was a segment where Jeff Hardy was asking Vickie Guerrero for another title match pleading that all he needed was one more shot. She said that's the point you always need one more shot and your a let down every time. She them talked about how he's been less than hardcore or extreme and lackluster, and told him to go have his tag match since that seems to be the only thing he is good at(which was a mega blow) and he told her he was going to blow her mind tonight.
So, they go to have their match and through out it Hardy does more aerial stunts to the outside of the ring and a bunch of his high flying stuff as the sign that he is stepping it up. Eventually he get's pissed off because Miz and Morrison are cheating as they normally would and I think they tried to use a chair but Hardy got it and blatantly in front of the ref starts beating the hell out of Miz and Morrison. He then chased Morrison to the ramp and throws the chair at him, leaving Miz in the ring to get Pedigreed by Triple H, and you noticed during the chair beat down Triple H looking at Jeff like "What the hell got into him" and just standing back as he beat the shit out of both guys. That's not all though.
Later in the night we have our main event Undertaker v.s. Kozlov. The stipulations were that if Kozlov could beat the Undertaker he would get a match with Triple H at this next pay-per-view for the title. Now, you know that something has to happen to get Undertaker disqualified because they aren't going to put Kozlov over Undertaker legitimately, and Undertaker isn't going to beat him because then that leaves the title picture kind of in disarray. I figured that Big Show would come to the ring as that was the most logical way to screw Undertaker out of the match to fuel his feud with Big Show, and get Kozlov into the title match. Nope. Out of nowhere after Kozlov and Undertaker put on a pretty good match comes Jeff Hardy out of nowhere and starts pounding Kozlov costing Undertaker the match putting Kozlov in the title match against Triple H.
The whole time they have Jeff acting like he's gone crazy, and then have another segment after the match with him and Vickie Guerrero and he literally seemed to be acting like Edge.
All this seems to point to a heel turn and it didn't seem weird. He could be everyone's favorite heel no problem. I didn't see it coming, but I like it. Any thought???
