Hardy recalls getting ribbed by multiple performers when they first showed up in WWE. X-Pac’s ribs never felt personal or mean-spirited, but some of Bradshaw’s ribs felt pretty mean-spirited from time to time. He notes that Bradshaw’s a really cool dude if you’re good with him.
Hardy admits that he and Jeff had no business being in WWE when they first got there, but the only way they could learn was by being around people better than them. They did their best and got through it early on until they improved, and they finally felt like they belonged after teaming with Michael Hayes and winning the Tag Team Championships.

Hardy points out that he and Jeff wrestled The Young Bucks for ROH the night before their return at WrestleMania, and he was quite stressed about the entire situation. He received calls from Triple H, and then Michael Hayes and Vince McMahon later in the day, urging him and especially Jeff to take it easy in their ROH match to ensure they didn’t hurt themselves because they were needed at ‘Mania the next night.
He points out that he had the upmost trust in The Young Bucks, and he told them everything about their WWE return. He asked them to take care of him and Jeff that night, and they were very cool and easy to work with.
