I believe that I am becoming somewhat notorious on the forum for my dislike of Jeff Hardy (if we want fashion designers to be World Heavyweight Champion, my pick would be for Maria)...
Seriously though I have been given negative rep for this anti-Hardy stance, and told numerous times that Jeff is so entertaining and exciting (P.S. if all of the other Hardy-haters want to send me some positive rep, I'll hit you back!).
Let's take a look at one of Jeff's top 2 "entertaining" moves, the Whisper in the Wind. Very played out move by now IMO... if you throw Jeff into the corner and follow him in... BINGO, and it seems to me that he connects 99% of the time.
There are so many ways that an opponent (think of someone sly like Edge or Jericho, or maybe a monster like Knox or Umaga) could "scout" and counter this move, aside from very simply moving out of the way (which I think I have seen a couple of times).
My Example: The way he flips off the top, it make sense that a good opponent could catch him in the ocassional sitout powerbomb, or a nice neckbreaker once in a while.
This would add something to his matches in my opinion... one positive thing I see in Jeff is that he sells his bumps pretty well... the occasional counter could be a really cool alternative to J.R. yelling "Whittthhhhpppper in the Wind" as Jeff hits it once again (I'm sorry but didn't he land this move TWICE in the tag match last night on Superstars against Jericho and Diggler, two seemingly intelligent Superstars?)...
So c'mon... Hardy hating aside... what do you think, shouldn't this move be countered more often? What are some cool ways that you think a Superstar could counter the Whisper in the Wind?
