'''Jeffrey Nero Hardy''', often known as "The Charismatic Enigma", is a [[Professional Wrestling|professional wrestler]] currently{{when}} signed to [[TNA|Impact Wrestling]], where he is a former two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion. He's best known for his time in [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]], where he began as part of the Hardy Boyz tag team with his [[Real Life Relative|brother]], [[Matt Hardy|Matt]]. He has won multiple championships both on his own and with his brother, including being a WWE World Champion three times.
Despite not being very tall or bulky by pro wrestling standards, and not being the greatest talker in the business (despite the nickname), Jeff got over by using an array of high-flying moves in his matches that took the crowd's breath away. While Jeff's made his living by being "extreme", some of the things in his matches bring his sanity into question. And while his wrestling persona can be pretty strange sometimes, he's reportedly even stranger in real life.

[[That Other Wiki]] has more information on him. Read it [[wikipedia:Jeff Hardy|here]].
{{creatortropes}}
* [[The Atoner]]: Since his return to TNA following his disgraceful performance on Victory Road 2011.
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Hardy has a history with [[Edge]] going back to their tag team days. [[CM Punk]] feuded with Hardy and ultimately forced him to leave WWE (kayfabe, due to Hardy's expiring contract).
Line 18 ⟶ 17:
** Kinda doubles as a [[Mind Screw]], if you [[Incredibly Lame Pun|really think about it]]. Which, by the way, would, not be advised.
* [[Breakup Breakout]]: With Jeff being the Michaels and Matt being the Jannety.
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: Jeff Hardy has been portrayed like this. He gyrates and dances his way to the ring, covers his arms and face in fluorescent paint, makes abstract paintings backstage, openly refers to his fans as freaks and misfits (in a good way, indicating that he's just as much one as them), and throws his body into his every attack with reckless abandon... and is a three-time WWE world heavyweight champion and six-time tag-team champ. Even better? He fits this trope in real life as well, as his real behavior is even more bizarre, and yet he was respected enough and loved by the fans enough during his WWE run that he was given all those title reigns.
** Jeff also seems to have an affinity for large African animals. He and Matt did at least one interview while straddling [http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzvikpQJfY1r1nxqvo1_400.jpg wooden cheetahs] (also notice Jeff's leopard-print pants). There's another photo of him gleefully hugging an honest-to-god giraffe.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: His TV character is in fact considerably more normal than he is in real life. His closest friends claim that one of his favorite activities outside of wrestling is "digging holes and filling them back in." His sculpting material of choice is aluminum foil. Also, there's his alter-ego Itchweeed (which is in fact the correct spelling).
Line 44 ⟶ 43:
* [[Real Life Writes the Plot]]: When Jeff didn't sign a new contract with WWE before his old one expired, he was charged with drug possession during his time away from the company. Before that, Jeff had been feuding with the [[Straight Edge Evil]] [[CM Punk]], who had made references to Hardy's past substance abuse issues during that feud. After Hardy's arrest, Punk gloated in-character about his former rival's misfortune in order to get heat. The original plan was to eventually negotiate a new deal with Hardy, who would return to face Punk at a future pay-per-view. However, Hardy didn't appreciate what was being said about him on WWE programming, so he signed with TNA instead. WWE was forced to go with Plan B: putting Punk in a feud with [[Rey Mysterio, Jr.]].
** The loss of the TNA World Title to Mr. Anderson in such a rushed fashion was most likely to get the belt off Hardy, who might be sentenced to jail time soon after being found guilty on his aformentioned drug charges. But seeing that he gained it back soon after, that may not have been the issue.
** His match at ''Victory Road'' 2011 was so short because Jeff showed up "in no condition to work" (i.e. "drugged out as all Hell") and [[
* [[Red Baron]]: The Charismatic Enigma and recently The Anti-Christ of Professional Wrestling.
* [[Role
* [[Sibling Team]]
* [[Spot Monkey]]: Has sometimes been accused of being this, although he's shown improvement over time. And let's face it, a lot of those spots were ''amazing''.
* [[Squee]]: Jeff, PLEASE don't take your shirt off again in the middle of a match. It hurts our ears.
* [[Squash Match]]: His TNA World Heavyweight Title match against [[
* [[Star-Making Role]]: His Ladder Match with Undertaker in the early 2000s. He didn't receive his first main event push until late 2007, but that was the match that really put him in the public's eyes as legitimate singles competitor.
* [[The Unfettered]]: Heel and face, this man gives it his all with every move.
* [[Villain Song]]: One of his TNA theme songs, Another, fits this to a T.
