Hardy in PWG?

Postby ratedRpornstar » Wed Sep 09, 2009 3:20 pm

Southern California-based Pro Wrestling Guerrilla is having preliminary internal discussion about whether to negotiate with former WWE World Hvt. champion Jeff Hardy to bring him in for an upcoming show.

The price tag for Hardy would be the biggest concern for the independent promotion. Hardy is coming off one of the hottest babyface runs in WWE since John Cena from 2006-2007.

Hardy went on hiatus from WWE after the August 28 episode of Smackdown when he opted not to re-sign a WWE contract.

Earlier today, Hardy name-dropped PWG in a post on Twitter. In one of his trademark quirky posts, he said, "PWGs got some work to do."

PWG's next show is Friday, October 2, but their biggest two shows of the year are in November for their annual Battle of Los Angeles tournament. If PWG were to sign Hardy, he would most-likely appear on one or both of their BOLA shows.

This year, PWG has brought in WWE stars for their first appearances since leaving WWE. Colt Cabana was fired from WWE on February 20, then appeared on a PWG show the next day. Brian Kendrick also wrestled his first match following his WWE's release against Bryan Danielson on Sept. 28.

I would love to see Jeff come into PWG, get booed the entire time he's in the arena, and loose to Chris Hero. Hero said he's got to do something big, change things up, he's got to beat Jeff Hardy. Which would be cool if you think about, the last guy to beat Hardy was CM Punk and the next guy could be Chris Hero.......

Funny how these things spread. I read Hardy's twitter post, and I took it as he was referring to his band PeroxWhyGen and not Pro Wrestling Guerrilla.

Yeah, I don't think this is happening. Personally I haven't been into Hardy since WM X-7 so I can't say I would be excited if this was true. According to Shannon Moore's twitter:

Hate to bust anyone's bubble, but Jeff's tweet wasnt referring to PWG, the wrestling group, it was to his band Perowhy?gen

im glad he dint mean our PWG, this guy is a horrible spot monkey. PWG can use that money towards good pro-wrestlers. Im dying to see kenta live. I understand he would draw big for pwg but i would hate seeing WWE fans infiltrating our true pro-wrestling company.

Could even imagine Hardy in the current PWG? Dear God him, Kendrick, and London under no adult supervision besides Excal and Ryan? PWG would go from wrestling company to Meth Factory so quickly they'd have to rename it IWA-So Cal. And that was the daily jab at Ian.

Whether or not you are a Hardy fan, the bottom line is that I doubt it would make good financial sense for PWG to do so. JR commented on his blog that Jeff can pull $10,000 - $15,000 per appearance. Personally, I would rather PWG use a quarter of the money and bring in more guys like Shane Haste, possibly guys like Rhett Titus, or Brodie Lee. If I want to see Hardy, I'll YouTube something.

I'm not really a fan, but I think the people that would boo him must not have seen a Hardy match in years. Jeff's had great matches over the past few years against John Morrison, Matt Hardy, Edge and CM Punk, to name a few. He seems pretty limited to the "WWE style", and would need to be matched up with the right opponent to make it work. But Jeff knows how to work a crowd about as well as just about anyone. I'd be in favor of this just because it would add something different to the card.

Or just book RVD for BOLA too. Either works for me.

Man, look at this. A whole article written about a Tweet that had nothing to do with PWG. It's the first sentence that gets me that most. It sounds so factual, yet couldn't be more untrue. Just like Hollywood tabloids.

At least PWG got a small buzz from this, though. 8)

So you know for a fact that PWG never discussed bringing in Jeff Hardy? You sound so factual, so I'm assuming you talked to the owners and/or an inside source.

"PWG" showed up on Hardy's Twitter, the article posted here was written based on that single update, and then everyone realized he was talking about his band.

Do the math.
