Avant de connaître le succès à la WWE, Hardy combattait à l'Organization of Modern Extreme Grappling Arts (OMEGA), une promotion qu'il dirigeait avec son frère Matt. Après avoir signé à la WWE, les frères débutèrent en tant que jobbers avant de se faire remarquer dans la division tag team, notamment grâce à leurs participations aux Tables, Ladders, and Chairs matches. Avec l'arrivée de Lita, l'équipe prit le nom de Team Xtreme et ils continuèrent de gagner en popularité. En équipe, Jeff Hardy a été six fois WWE World Tag Team Championship et une fois WCW World Tag Team Championship. En dehors de son succès en tag team, il a aussi connu le succès en solo. Il a été quatre fois WWE Intercontinental Championship et a détenu les ceintures Hardcore, European, Light Heavyweight et WWE Champion.
Jeff Hardy cite Sting, The Ultimate Warrior et Shawn Michaels comme ceux qui lui ont donné envie de devenir catcheurs pendant son enfance[réf. nécessaire]. Il a combattu à la World Wrestling Federation (WWF) en tant que jobber dès ses 16 ans. Son premier match à la WWF fut contre Razor Ramon le 24 mai 1994. Le lendemain il a combattu The 1-2-3 Kid. Il continua à faire occasionnellement le jobber jusqu'à fin 1997 puis eu son premier push en 1998.
Avec son frère Matt Hardy et quelques amis il créa sa propre fédération, la TWF (Trampoline Wrestling Federation) et ils imitaient les prises qu'ils voyaient à la télévision mais La fédération changea plusieurs fois de nom et fut intégrée à une fête foraine en Caroline du Nord. Les frères et leurs amis commencèrent alors à travailler pour des petites compagnies indépendantes de la côte Est des États-Unis. Avant ses débuts à la WWF, Matt créa sa propre fédération, OMEGA (Organization of Modern Extreme Grappling Arts) avec Thomas Simpson. Elle eut bien plus de succès que la TWF et employa les frères Hardy, Shannon Moore, Gregory Helms et Joey Matthews entre autres. À OMEGA, les deux frères jouaient plusieurs personnages comme Willow the Wisp, Iceman, Mean Jimmy Jack Tomkins, et The Masked Mountain. Il y remporta le New Frontier Championship en solo et le Tag Team Championship avec Matt. La promotion disparut en avril 1998 lorsqu'ils signèrent à la WWF.
Les frères Hardy finirent par attirer l'attention de la World Wrestling Federation. Après avoir signé un contrat en 1998, ils furent entrainés par Dory Funk, Jr. dans son Funkin' Dojo avec d'autres lutteurs tels Kurt Angle, Christian, Test ou A-Train. Quand l'équipe débuta finalement à la télévision après des mois passés en tant que jobbers lors de house-shows, ils formèrent une tag team acrobatique appelée les Hardy Boyz. Pendant leur feud avec The Brood à l'été 1999, Michael Hayes devint leur manager. Le 5 juillet ils remportèrent leur premier WWF Tag Team Championship en battant The Acolytes, mais ceux-ci la regagnèrent un mois plus tard. Après la dissolution de The Brood, les Hardy rejoignèrent Gangrel pour former The New Brood et feuder contre Edge et Christian. Cette nouvelle stable ne dura pas longtemps et le 17 octobre 1999 à No Mercy, les Hardy Boyz remportèrent Terri Runnels en tant que manager, en finale du Terri Invitational Tournament au cours du tout premier ladder match par équipe de l'histoire de la WWF, face à Edge et Christian.
En 2000, les Hardy Boyz trouvèrent un nouveau manager : Lita, une amie dans la « vraie vie ». Les trois prirent le nom de Team Xtreme ils continuèrent leur feud contre Edge et Christian au cours de l'année 2000 et remportèrent face à eux le WWF Tag Team Championship à deux reprises. À SummerSlam, les Hardy Boyz prirent part au tout premier Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match (TLC match), pour le Tag Team Title face aux Dudley Boyz et Edge et Christian, mais sans succès.
Jeff Hardy gagna en notoriété grâce à ses mouvements très risqués au cours des TLC matches de 2000 à 2002. Ils fut alors considéré comme le lutteur de la WWF prenant le plus de risques et le plus original de l'époque. En 2001 il reçut un push en solo et remporta les titre WWF Intercontinental (en battant Triple H), Light Heavyweight (en battant Jerry Lynn) et Hardcore ( en battant Mike Awesome et Rob Van Dam). Fin 2001, lui et son frère commencèrent une rivalité entre frères, qui les amena à un match à Vengeance avec Lita comme arbitre spécial. Il remporta ce match alors que Matt avait le pied sur la corde, ce qui lança une feud entre Jeff et Lita face à Matt. Au milieu de cette feud, il fut battu par The Undertaker dans un match pour le titre Hardcore. Lors de leur retour, ils formèrent à nouveau une équipe.
Au début d'avril 2002, les Hardy Boyz commencèrent une feud contre Brock Lesnar après que Lesnar a porté à Matt un F-5 sur la rampe d'entrée en métal. Furieux, Jeff Hardy voulut se venger et affronta Lesnar dans son premier match télévisé à Backlash. Lesnar domina le match et le remporta par KO. Ils continuèrent leur feud les semaines suivantes mais les Hardy Boyz ne remportèrent qu'un seul match, par disqualification. À Judgment Day, Lesnar gagna de nouveau, en équipe avec Paul Heyman. En juillet 2002 il remporta son troisième Hardcore Championship face à Bradshaw.
Hardy à la TNA, 2005.
Compétition en solo (20022003)
Après des années dans la division tag team, Jeff Hardy perdit un ladder match contre The Undertaker pour le WWE Undisputed Championship. Il apparaîtra par la suite dans plusieurs matchs pour des championnats individuels, notamment en battant William Regal pour le WWE European Championship. Quelques semaines plus tard, il perd sa ceinture contre Rob Van Dam dans un match où le European Championship est unifié avec l'Intercontinental Championship, le WWF European Championship étant alors abandonné. Finalement les Hardy Boyz se séparèrent, Jeff Hardy continuant en solo à WWE Monday Night RAW, son frère étant drafté à SmackDown.
En janvier 2003 il eut un bref heel turn après avoir attaqué Rob Van Dam et Shawn Michaels. Il prit fin un mois plus tard lorsqu'il sauva Stacy Keibler d'une attaque de Christian, alors heel. En février il fit brièvement équipe avec Shawn Michaels.
Temps mort et circuit indépendant (2003)
Jeff Hardy revient à la lutte lors d'un évènement de la Ring of Honor, Death Before Dishonor. Il gagne son match contre Joey Matthews et Krazy K. Il prend ensuite une année sabbatique pour se consacrer au motocross et terminer sa piste de motocross.

Jeff Hardy revient à la TNA le 21 juillet et obtient un match pour le NWA World Heavyweight Championship face à Jeff Jarrett, qu'il dispute et perd le 8 septembre. Après avoir remporté un tournoi au mois d'octobre, il perd de nouveau face à Jarrett pour le titre le 7 novembre dans un ladder match à Victory Road, après l'interference de Kevin Nash et Scott Hall. Un mois plus tard, le 5 décembre à Turning Point 2004, Jeff Hardy, A.J. Styles et Randy Savage battent Jeff Jarrett, Scott Hall et Kevin Nash collectivement connus sous le nom de The Kings of Wrestling.

Il lutte dans son premier match à la TNA depuis quatre mois à Unbreakable 2005 le 11 septembre, perdant contre Bobby Roode après une intervention de Jeff Jarrett. En octobre, il commence une feud contre Abyss, Rhino et Sabu qui culmine dans un Monster's Ball match à Bound For Glory 2005 le 23 octobre, gagné par Rhino après un Rhino Driver de la seconde corde sur Jeff. Au cours de ce match, Jeff Hardy porte une Swanton Bomb à Abyss d'une hauteur d'environ 5 mètres. Le même soir il dispute une battle royal à 10, remportée encore par Rhino, pour obtenir un match pour le NWA World Heavyweight Championship. À Genesis 2005 en novembre, il perd contre Monty Brown dans un nouveau match pour devenir aspirants n°1 au titre mondial.

Update on Hardy's WWE Contract, Beth& Jeff's Twitter
The word making the rounds at last night's WWE Night of Champions PPV was that new WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Hardy has agreed to stay on with the company through SummerSlam reports PWInsider. While nothing has been officially confirmed, Hardy is still being advertised for the event and remained in a new promo that aired on the PPV last night.
For your Twitter fans out there, it should be noted that Jeff Hardy's name was the #1 "Tending Topic" following last night's Night of Champions PPV.
source: wrestleview --------------- Speaking of Twitter, Jeff and his girlfriend Beth has updated their twitter accounts. To view Jeff's tweets, go to JeffHardyBrand while Beth's is BethBrittBrand. Beth also uploaded a photo of Jeff at the hotel in her TwitPic, without the belt as Jeff Hardy's name was still being put on it.
CM Punk started to be interviewed backstage by Josh Mathews, but when he heard the crowd supporting Jeff Hardy
, he took the mic and walked into the arena. Punk stood in the crowd and said he didn't blame the fans for the way they support Jeff Hardy. He blamed the single-parents, who give their kids whatever they want, because their marriages failed. Punk said they weren't good parents, they were enablers. Punk said parents letting their kids look up to Jeff Hardy shows they don't really care at all. Punk said it "starts with a Jeff Hardy T-Shirt, then they're smoking cigarettes", drinking beer, using illicit street drugs, etc. It was a great promo, but I wonder if a lot of it went over the heads of the fans

Here are the rankings for July 25.

A win against WWE Champion Randy Orton on Raw was fantastic for Cena. Especially since it may mean the former Champ isn't far from being on top of more than just the Power 25.
The Legend Killer was stunned by what happened on Raw, and that might be bad news for him, considering his title will be at risk against Triple H and the man who pinned him on Raw, John Cena.
Although The Charismatic Enigma should be concentrating more thoroughly on his golden opportunity, a win over Chris Jericho on SmackDown will do nothing but add to his momentum.
Although he may not be moving up the list, Punk got the last laugh Friday night after giving the GTS to his nemesis, Jeff Hardy. If the World Heavyweight Champion hits that when it matters, he's sure to retain gold.
We've been quite impressed with The Friday Night Delight as of late, and this week he brought the fireworks one night early when he outshined Kane in a disqualification win on "WWE Superstars."
The Master of the 619 drops down this week after being brutally attacked by Dolph Ziggler following SmackDown's main event. Does the brash, young Superstar have Mysterio's number?
In light of what Big Show did to the other five men involved in the tag match on Raw, it looks like the United States Champion needs to keep an eye out for The World's Largest Athlete.
On Raw, The Game stated that he doesn't care if he wins the title, he just wants to ensure that Randy Orton is no longer champion. When The King of Kings has his mind set, he usually gets the job done.
The first-ever Undisputed Champion has had plenty of issues to deal with lately and hasn't really gotten the best of any of them. He'll really need to turn things around if he doesn't want to fall out of the P25's top 10.
Captain Charisma may be friends with Tommy Dreamer, but there's no reason to step in the ring if you don't want to be on top. So, for that reason, Christian and Dreamer are at war atop ECW.
Tons and tons of heart is what Tommy Dreamer has, and that is all anchored in the Land of the Extreme. If he loses the ECW Title, he'll be sure to give it his all to regain gold as soon as possible.
He may be young, but Dolph Ziggler has proven himself to be wise, albeit perhaps a bit devious at times. The Hollywood, Fla., native certainly has a very bright future ahead of him.
Although Big Show added one to the loss column this week, the devastation The World's Largest Athlete left in the ring following the match really caught the attention of The Academy.
Being on the losing side of action in Raw's main event can't make The Legacy feel good, but we think if they can win the Unified Tag Team Championships, they won't be too sore about the loss.
The World's Strongest Man has been impressive in action lately, and on Raw, despite being attacked with a chair, he got to show his grin after having the last laugh over Chris Jericho.
If Women's Champion Michelle McCool can successfully defend her title against Melina, she will have beaten the Diva from whom she originally captured the title. The debate continues: Is McCool the best ever?
Technically, The Franchise Playa' was victorious on Raw, but we don't think he would have been pleased unless he himself put Jack Swagger down for the three-count.
Her actions may have been devious, but the Divas Champion got the result she was looking for as we think that Mickie James might be a little less confident when the two come face-to-face this Sunday.
Things have been going up and down for this impressive triad. Unfortunately for the young Dynasty, on SmackDown, Natalya lost to Eve making this one of those down weeks.
The Moscow Mauler may not have gone one-on-one with anyone on ECW, but it seems as if he wanted to show Ezekiel Jackson how it's done, annihilating his opponent after Jackson's match.
Since returning, there's definitely been a change in The Big Red Monster. Sure, his sadistic side would certainly attack John Morrison with a chair, but standing down from The Great Khali, that's just weird.
Redemption could be within Melina's grasp, and if she is able to obtain it, it's coming with the Women's Championship and a regaining of her throne at the top of SmackDown's Diva division.
When The Gold Standard was set to face Goldust in the Land of the Extreme, there was sure to be an inflation of one of these Superstars' egos, and not surprisingly, it was that of Shelton Benjamin.
After being out of action and being blinded by Divas Champion Maryse when the French Diva interrupted her interview, Mickie James is on the brink of falling off the P25 if she doesn't win the title.

FAREWELL
The following Superstar(s) failed to maintain their position on the P25 this week:
Zack Ryder - After breaking onto the list last week, the Long Island native was not in action, causing him to fall off the list as quickly as he got on.
OTHERS EARNING VOTES
The following Superstar(s) also received votes from members of The Academy:
Yoshi Tatsu - If Tatsu continues to impress in the ring, it's only a matter of time before he lands on the list.
The Great Khali - The Punjabi Playboy not only defeated Mike Knox on SmackDown, but it seems as though Khali also has Kane on the run.
Hornswoggle- Thanks perhaps to some wardrobe adjustments on Chavo Guerrero's tuxedo, 'Swoggle is now 3-0 against the self-proclaimed "Mexican Warrior" in the last three weeks.
WWE superstar Triple H turned 40 last night -- and his post-Monday NightRAW birthday celebration quickly erupted into a no-holds-barred cake smashing massacre!!!
Almost everyone at WWE, including John Cena, Big Show, Vince McMahon and Batista, joined the dessert firing squad -- and, for once, it didn't look like they were entirely faking it.

Here are the rankings for July 18.

The WWE Champion hasn't had good luck with Raw's special guest hosts, and this week was no different as Seth Green put himself, John Cena & Triple H against Orton & The Legacy.
After coming to Seth Green's aid in the main event, Cena might have been standing the tallest after Raw, but not tall enough to dethrone Orton from the No. 1 spot on this week's list.
Although it was by disqualification thanks to World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, The Extreme Enigma teamed with Rey Mysterio on SmackDown and was victorious by disqualification.
Not only did The World Heavyweight Champion lose to John Morrison at the start of SmackDown, but he also gave Jeff Hardy more momentum heading into Night of Champions with a disqualification victory.
Not only did Mysterio get the last laugh over Dolph Ziggler on "WWE Superstars," but he also got the "W" on SmackDown in tag team action against Chris Jericho & Dolph Ziggler by the other duo getting disqualified.
Soaring up the Power 25 with not much looking like it can stop this fast-rising Superstar, The Friday Night Delight picked up a huge win over World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk on SmackDown.
Although he did what was right by helping Evan Bourne on Raw, the United States Champion bit off a lot more than he could chew on "WWE Superstars," as he was on the losing side of action against Big Show.
Jericho may have lost two matches this week, but he did get the last laugh at the end of the week, and with neither loss being by submission or pinfall, it's enough to gain him one spot on the P25.
With his trusty sledgehammer in his hand, The Game helped clear the ring of The Legacy at the end of Raw. Afterward, he hoisted special guest host Seth Green on his shoulders and celebrated in the ring.
Following last week's altercation with MVP on the VIP Lounge, "The All-American American" was able to back up what he said with a victory, but we doubt this is the last he's seen of The Franchise Playa'.
Nothing seems to be going Dreamer's way in the Land of Extreme and the ECW Champion's loss to Vladimir Kozlov on Tuesday night, including the post-match attack, doesn't make things any better.
Not only did Captain Charisma lose to Shelton Benjamin on ECW on Syfy, but when he tried to come to stop Vladimir Kozlov's attack on ECW Champion Tommy Dreamer, he was laid out for his efforts.
The Legacy may not have been victorious on Raw, but they didn't lose either. Also, both Rhodes & DiBiase escaped a sledgehammer-wielding Triple H virtually unscathed.
Thanks to a disqualification, Ziggler may have lost on SmackDown, but that doesn't spoil the fact that he has an Intercontinental Championship Match against Mysterio at Night of Champions.
On both Raw and "WWE Superstars" The World's Largest Athlete looked quite impressive as he picked up a submission win over Evan Bourne and a pinfall victory against United States Champ Kofi Kingston.
A week of nothing does not bode well for the Women's Champion, especially with Night of Champions fast approaching. We wonder if McCool will be mentally prepared when she has to defend her title that night.
At one moment, it looked as if The World's Strongest Man was about to make an unholy alliance with Chris Jericho. The next saw Henry pounding on Jericho until he was scampering away to the locker room.
After what was said to him last week, we're surprised that Jack Swagger is still living no-less walking away the victor on Raw. One thing we know though - The Franchise Playa' isn't finished yet.
A split week this week leaves The Hart Dynasty staying at 19. These three need to figure out a way to get Cryme Tyme out of their hair for good if they want to focus on going after the tag team gold.
The Divas Champion must be elated that in her Summer Swimsuit Spectacular Tag Match on Raw, she picked up the win over her rival and the No. 1 contender to her title, Mickie James.
Ever since returning, The Big Red Monster has been on a roll, and that ended up being unfortunate for R-Truth this week, as when the steamroller came rolling through, he was stuck right in front of it.
The beating Kozlov gave out on Tuesday was certainly from Russia, but definitely not with love in part of it. Both ECW Champion Tommy Dreamer and No. 1 contender Christian can attest to that.
Thanks in part to Mickie James' loss, Melina moves up a spot this week without doing a thing. Her luck isn't going to stay this way for long, so she better get back in the ring if she wants to stay on the Power25.
With Night of Champions coming quickly, Mickie James needs to turn things around so that she has the momentum on her side when she finally comes face to face with Maryse for the Divas Title.
Things seem to be on the up-and-up for the Long Island Native as, despite having to face one of ECW's more bizarre Superstars, Ryder was able to keep on track and pick up the win.
NR
FAREWELL
The following Superstar(s) failed to maintain their position on the P25 this week:
Edge - Thanks to a torn Achilles tendon, The Rated-R Superstar is now out of action and off the P25.
Finlay - Unfortunately for the Irishman, no match this week means that we have no choice but to drop him off the POWER 25.
OTHERS EARNING VOTES
The following Superstar(s) also received votes from members of The Academy:
Yoshi Tatsu - Leading the charge for ECW, several impressive wins in recent weeks has Yoshi getting our attention.
Shelton Benjamin - Perhaps the veteran of the three ECW Superstars getting votes, Benjamin would like nothing more than to earn his spot back on the list.
Sheamus- Just like Yoshi above, Sheamus has been making the jaws of The Academy drop in his last few performances with an astounding dominance over his opponents.

While no one in the company has alerted anyone internally about this, the belief in WWE is that Jeff Hardy's departure is imminent as his contract with the company is up at the end of the month and is not booked on any house show events at the end of the month reports The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Those close to Hardy believe he will end up working the SummerSlam PPV on August 23 as his final show with the company even though his contract would expire a few weeks earlier. While no one in WWE is outright happy that Hardy is leaving at a time when things on Smackdown are lacking on the babyface side, he is getting praise for willingly putting CM Punk over at house show events every night and working hard and putting forth quality main events on his way out.
WWE added Jeff Hardy's name to the list of wrestlers on the UK Tour earlier today. Hardy's name was absent from the list of wrestlers on tour for the past couple of weeks, but lately he was added behind Undertaker and CM Punk. Edge was removed from the list which indicates this is an updated version of the list. Its possible Hardy signed a long-term contract or short-term extension.
The Smackdown video plays and were brought into the arena with a great pyro display. Jim Ross and Todd Grisham welcome us to the show and announce our Main Event will be Jeff Hardy and Rey Mysterio taking on Chris Jericho and Dolph Ziggler. Also well have an exclusive interview with Edge.

Hardy says last week CM Punk came on this show and made a shocking revelation. We now see footage of CM Punk from last week telling Hardy that hes had zero strikes, zero suspensions, and zero trips to rehab. Punk then tells Hardy his chances of beating him at Night of Champions is also zero.
Hardy says CM Punk doesnt get it. Hardy says Punk brings up Hardys mistakes like hes trying to hide behind something. Hardy says he wants to straighten something out everyone makes mistakes. Hes made mistakes and has been suspended twice. Hardy says he hasnt failed a test in over a year and he has never been to rehab hes always healed himself. At Night of Champions he will beat CM Punk.
CM Punks music hits and the World Heavyweight Champion makes his way to the ring. It looks like his eye has finally healed. Punk gets in the ring and apologizes, saying hes a little taken back right now. Punk asks if this is what it has come to people cheering because he hasnt failed a drug test in a year. Punk says this is not an accomplishment and the fans are chanting to him that he sucks. Punk says maybe its an accomplishment to him that he hasnt failed a drug test in 365 days. Punk says he should start writing his Hall of Fame speech now.
Hardy says he hopes Punk came out for something else because hes tired of hearing the same thing week after week. Punk says its the same thing week after week because Hardy doesnt listen and never has. Punk reminds Hardy that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Punk asks if Hardy remembers that from school and then says probably not because he was a screw-up then, too. Punk asks how many tests he failed and classes he skipped. Punk asks how many times he was expelled. Hardy asks if Punk is trying to be his guidance councilor. Punk says maybe Hardy should wish he was because he would have set him straight. Hardy would never have drank, smoked, or been on the path he is on now. Punk tells Hardy to look at himself and realize hes a joke. Hardy comes out and brags that hes been suspended twice before bragging that hes never been to rehab. Punk asks Hardy who he thinks he is.
Hardy says hes the next World Heavyweight Champion. Punk says Hardy is a dreamer and that a guy like him could never beat him. Punk says hes straight-edge. Alcohol has never touched his lips. Punk has never smoked and he doesnt do drugs. Punk says a year from now hell still be champion while Hardy will fall back into the same vicious cycle. Hardy will lose to him and hell fall back into his vices. Punk repeats that over and over. Hardy says he guesses hes not as perfect as Punk. Punk says maybe he should be perfect because theres a sea of kids wearing Jeff Hardy t-shirts and that scares him because Hardy is his hero. That means there are millions of kids out there that are just going to see their hero become just a statistic.
Hardy has had enough and pushes Punk right out of the ring by the face. Punk gets up angrily and says hes going to be the bigger man because he has a match next. However nothing is going to stop him from tearing Hardy apart at Night of Champions. Punk then goes to sit by Justin Roberts as the crowd chants for Hardy.
