#3 Edge and Matt Hardy

<p>

Many fans are aware of this real life hatred, because it happened during the internet age.

Matt Hardy had been dating Lita for years, but when he was drafted to Smackdown Lita stayed on Raw. Spending so much time apart put strain on their relationship, and she soon began dating Edge instead. Lita admits she was still technically with Hardy when the relationship with Edge began.

The WWE caught wind of the real life beef, and their response was to fire Matt Hardy. However, the internet community discovered the reason behind Matt's firing, and quickly took up arms against the WWE. Eventually the WWE did capitulate and bring Matt back into the company, and then milked the real life animosity for a series of matches between the two.

Even though Matt Hardy at one point told Edge "I hope you get cancer," the two have reconciled their differences since, probably helped by the fact that Lita dumped Edge as well.
