2005 was a tumultuous time in Matt Hardy's personal and professional life. First, he found out that longtime girlfriend Lita had been cheating on him with Edge whilst he was out injured. Then, Matt had to deal with having his WWE contract terminated. Finally, Hardy was tasked with turning real-life heartache into an angle.

Ashley helped him bounce back.

The pair dated for a while in '05, and Massaro posted a memory on Twitter last November about Matt making her up a 'mix tape' CD. When she stumbled upon it in her house, memories started flooding back. Unfortunately for Ashley, Matt's current wife Reby Sky wasn't pleased that she'd name-dropped her hubby, and a mini-Twitter feud ensued.

There are several pic of Matt and Ashley together on the road online. Most of them are available on Twitter and Instagram if anyone's interested. Knowing what Hardy was going through around that time makes it somehow nice to see a smile on his face.
