Jeff and Matt must've been excited heading into WrestleMania XXV. There, on WWE's biggest show of the year, they were set to have a brother vs. brother 'Extreme Rules' showdown that'd surely steal headlines and easily be remembered as the best bout on the show's undercard.

Not quite.

The brotherly battle went just 13 minutes, and it never really seemed to get going. On 'Broken Skull', Jeff revealed that WWE cut their time shortly before the pair went through the curtain, and he was p*ssed. When the siblings returned backstage, Jeff made a beeline for Vince McMahon and ended up arguing back and forth with his boss.

McMahon was fired up too, but Hardy thinks the V-man could sense his passion and kinda liked that things were so heated. Still, Jeff was legit angry that WWE had decided to knock some time off his match so others (later in the show) could have extra minutes.
