TSC Tag Teams/Stables Evaluation #60: The Hardy Boyz/Team Xtreme

[Playaz Eyez]

9/10. A modern day GOAT tag team that came from the ground up to be one of the most memorable tag teams around. I always appreciate teams (and wrestlers in general) that have the traditional trajectory in wrestling --- starting out as jobbers, picking up solid wins, contending, winning, having sustained success, flirting with singles matches/titles, then having legit success on their own. They were one of various definitive Attitude Era characters, and are readily identifiable with all sorts of match types. MITB doesn't exist without the Hardys and Edge/Christian, and the Dudleyz. They've also survived multiple eras in wrestling. It's 2019, and both Matt and Jeff Hardy are still on the radar. You know what, I'm going to change them to a 10. I don't feel like they (as a team) ever wore out their welcome with the fans.

i gotta be honest, i never liked these guys. the whole hot topic hillbilly thing and their stupid setup spots. but they put in the work and certainly got over.

I never was a big fan of the Hardyzs, but I always respected and acknowledged how over they were, how insane they were and always tried to have a fun match - and most of the time they had good/great heat - and how they were able to make a tag team work for 20 years in an Era were tag teams were basically dead. They are good draws and their TNA fukkey gave them a second wind.

10 just out of respect for the hustle
