5 WrestleMania classics that should've happened under MMA rules

#4 Edge vs. Matt Hardy (Wrestlemania X-Seven)

The bad blood between Edge and Matt Hardy is well documented

Okay, I’ll come clean here. This wasn’t a one-on-one bout. It was a tag-team Triple Threat as a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match between the Hardy Boyz, the Dudley Boyz, and Edge/Christian.

The reason it appears on this list is the animosity between Matt Hardy and Edge. In case you’ve been under a rock, here’s the backstory between the two men. The two were good friends, rising through the ranks together in the WWE. As the years went by, though, Edge began hooking up with Matt’s then-girlfriend, Lita, behind the elder Hardy’s back.

This culminated in an epic feud that was made all the more intense due to the off-screen hatred between the two men. And it is this off-screen hatred that is the catalyst for an MMA bout. Edge and Hardy would be more than happy to hurt to each other for real, and what better place than inside the UFC Octagon? Tickets would sell like hotcakes!
