10 Greatest Worked Shoots In Wrestling History

8. Matt Hardy On Edge

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMPCfu7nu8w The real life affair between Matt Hardy€™s girlfriend Amy €˜Lita€™ Dumas and his then best friend, Adam €˜Edge€™ Copeland was a matter of public record by the time this moment occurred on Monday Night RAW. Hardy had blurted his side of the story on his own website, which had led to his firing by WWE, given that of the three, Hardy was the most expendable. But fans in attendance were well aware of the back story, and had made their displeasure known about Hardy€™s sudden dismissal. WWE€™s decision to rehire Hardy and have him address the real life issues between he and Edge was smart one, as it brought the shoot into storylines as a worked shoot, and shut Hardy up at the same time. The feud wouldn€™t go entirely well for Hardy, Edge being scripted to beat him very convincingly, but until then Hardy€™s alleged shoot interruptions of RAW to assault Edge were pretty gripping television.
