After receiving arguably the loudest pop of the entire night, Matt and Jeff Hardy hit the ring, warring exuberantly with The Club, Enzo & Cass, and Cesaro & Sheamus in what might have been the evening's best match. For the first time since WrestleMania X7 in 2001, a pair of Tag Team belts changed hands on WrestleMania's main card, after Matt pulled down the hideous Raw tag team straps.

The match was Jeff Hardy's sixth at a WrestleMania, and it was just so happened to be his first 'Mania win. Previously, he and Matt lost two ladder/TLC matches (one being the aforementioned X7 bout), followed by a four-way tag at WrestleMania X8. Both brothers failed to win Money in the Bank at WrestleMania 23, and then Matt defeated his sibling in a wild brawl at WrestleMania 25. Better late than never, right?
