AI GeneratedJeff Hardy returns to Monday Night Raw in a non-title match against WWE Champion Edge. After a high-intensity battle featuring Hardy's signature athleticism, the match ends in chaos when John Cena intervenes, leading to a brutal pursuit that ends with Cena throwing Edge into the Long Island Sound.
We knew Jeff Hardy was returning tonight to Monday Night Raw.
But not with a, no pun intended, as big a bang as we're about to see.
This contest is scheduled for one fall.
Introducing first, from Cameron, North Carolina,
weighing in at 225 pounds, Jeff Hardy.
Earlier tonight, the WWE champion Edge was displaying his new Rated-R
championship belt.
He admitted to almost anybody that wanted a piece of it.
But Edge also said some very dispiritary remarks about Jeff's brother, Matt Hardy.
He's a no-talented loser, just like you.
Yeah, that was a couple of words too many from our champion,
the Rated-R Superstar.
Well, Jeff Hardy took exception to that, and
then he took out, I think Edge had seen enough of Jeff Hardy.
Edge has been enough TLC matches with Jeff Hardy to know that the Swanton Bomb
was coming.
And it was Edge who went to John the Caution before Mr.
McMahon arrived, and got this match approved, a non-title match.
You think you know me?
And making his way to the ring, weighing in at 250 pounds.
Back at Edge's side, for the Rated-R Superstar to enter the ring.
Look at him.
Baseball slide, and he presses him over the top.
That's a lot of history between the Hardys and Lita.
They used to be two-thirds of Team Extreme, if the fans remember correctly.
And Jeff Hardy now, bell sounds, and already, just as the bell sounds,
Jeff Hardy has got a near fall on the WWE Champion.
And you gotta wonder, King, what kind of condition Edge is in here tonight,
after that war with John Cena at SummerSlam 24 hours ago.
Well, you're right, it was a war with Cena, but Edge is looking,
I've seen him look better, but he's looking okay right now.
Jeff Hardy, not looking too sharp.
Jeff Hardy is a risk taker, a real daredevil.
He will crash and burn, sometimes as often as he will hit.
Wow, speaking of crashing and burning.
There's just no way to make that trip to those steel steps feel good.
There's just no way you can land.
There's no way you can turn your body.
Well, I was excited, as anyone was, about the return of Jeff Hardy here to Raw
tonight, but quite frankly, I didn't wanna see him come out here and interrupt Edge.
Check out one more time how this match started.
Edge coming to the ring, and this baseball slide.
That low drop kick baseball slide, then that suicidal dive over the top,
is how Jeff Hardy kicked this match off.
But now, Edge has the advantage in this one-fall non-title match,
here tonight, on Monday Night Raw.
On a night where Ric Flair will go one-on-one with Randy Orton, and
will Mick Foley join the Mr. McMahon Kiss My Ass Club?
We'll find out live here tonight.
Look at this, man, man, what a back-breaking situation.
And Senior Referee Mike Chioda had his count at four,
when Edge wisely broke the count.
You know, when Edge first came out here tonight,
he debuted his brand new WWE Championship belt.
And Jeff Hardy, wrist taper, who wants to finish that business in the open line.
Edge moving out of the way, avoiding the contact.
Look out.
Edge got a reprieve, but only momentarily.
DDT to cover up.
And a near fall.
Jeff Hardy pushing the WWE Champion to the limit there with that near fall.
What do you think?
Uh-oh.
A great counter.
A great counter by the WWE Champion.
Man, a great- And a WWE Women's Champion.
What do you think is going through Lita's mind right now?
And the cover, the count, and a near fall.
Like you said, all the history that Lita has had with Jeff Hardy and
his brother Matt Hardy.
And now, Jeff's back.
Here at Harbor Yard, trying to get behind, and are getting behind Jeff Hardy.
With a corkscrew, and nails, there's a cover, he's got, no, my gosh.
How close was that?
Jeff Hardy, that was an amazing athletic move, King.
It was amazing.
Look at this.
And I tell you what's amazing is the fact that Edge didn't get pinned off that move.
I don't think Jeff Hardy's gonna live to be an old man.
I hate to prophesize that, but those wrists just take their toll on how Hardy and
Edge, and Hardy getting the better of the situation.
Changing the right hands.
Hardy taking down Edge, very unorthodox, in an unorthodox fashion.
The cover, and the champ can be punished and pressed to the disadvantage here.
And then look at Edge retreating into the corner.
Look at Lita, look at the concern on Lita's face.
I think she's starting to perspire.
You can see droplets of sweat.
Edge trying to get a cheap shot in there, but no avail.
A twist of fate.
Jeff Hardy with a twist of fate.
The returning Jeff Hardy with Edge bleeding from the mouth or nose.
I got it.
And the Swanton Bomb, and there's the cover.
That'll do it.
We're gonna see.
Lita pulled Edge's foot.

Lita is pulling Edge right out of the ring.
I think she's seen her man have enough.

Just moments ago, ladies and gentlemen, we saw amazing athleticism
from Jeff Hardy hitting the Swanton Bomb.
Look at that.
On the WWE Champion Edge.
And then out of nowhere, here comes John Cena in all hell.
Literal close game.
You're right.
You see Edge.
I mean, he climbed over that restraining wall.
He went right through the crowd.
I mean, into the back.
He was doing anything in his power to try to get away from John Cena.
It looked like nothing more than a bar fight.
Watch his head go right through the glass.
A real slobber knocker for Cena and Edge.
Cena wanting to beat Edge to a pulp here.
Now, this is moments ago when they fought to the back area, the backstage area.
And our cameras struggled to stay with him.
My goodness.
That's Edge's face.
Well, as you said, after last night at SummerSlam and
after the history of these two men, the things that Edge has done to John Cena,
John Cena was all over Edge.

And Edge went out the back door.
Wisely.
Followed closely by John Cena.
Man, that may have been the best move Edge ever made.
But right now, we have to talk a little bit about Mr. McMahon's Kiss My Ass Club.
You know that club has a pretty elite list of members, JR.
Thanks. Let's take a look right now as one member really puckers up and smooches.
Wait a minute, we're live, we're live online.
You want me out of your life, huh?
You're gonna have to swim now.
Wait a minute.
God.
He's been running out by the hard way.

Come on, buddy.
You better get some help out there.
I'm bored.

Stand up, get up.

That's a dream.
You son of a bitch.

Huh?

Come on, John.

right next to the arena.

No!
Oh, my God, for the love of God.
