10 WWE Match-Ups That Were Better In Another Promotion

The Hardys never had trouble finding their chemistry as a tag team. Whether in WWE, TNA, or ROH, the two brothers' penchant for death-defying drops and tandem offense elevated the tag team division for whatever company they worked for.

The same can't be said for their few faceoffs. Their first encounter failed to match the calibre of their tag performances. That stigma would follow their singles matches every time they locked up, be it on Raw, on Backlash, or even at Wrestlemania.

Turns out all they needed was a change of scenery, which Impact provided. The story of this feud focused on Matt and his Broken Brilliance. Matt actually wrested attention away from Jeff as fans watched him go bonkers. The Final Deletion holds up as their strongest encounter, taking the fight to the Hardy compound where Matt and Jeff told a story that couldn't be contained in an arena. It needed a forest, a lake, and plenty of fireworks.

With Matt's creativity flourishing he showed that all their sibling rivalry needed was his narrative touch to add something more than just brother's being jealous. A shame WWE never had much faith in handing the reigns over to Matt, turning Broken Brilliance into buried brilliance.
