The Hardy Boyz In 1988 the boys, who were not big wrestling fans at the time, correctly predicted the Macho Man Randy Savage would win Wrestlemania IV. They began to watch wrestling reguarly, and soon became big WWF fans. Jeff and Matt received and trampoline for Christmas that year. They cut up chairs to make the posts, and used garden hose and cables to make ropes. Soon, they began to hold wrestling matches dressed in baseball pants and ski maskes. At only 14 and 11, the brothers saved their money and rented video cameras to film their PPV-like (the even had cardboard belts) performances, making around 50 videos.

At one point all of their gear, from wrestling attire to credit cards vanished; it was later found in the dumpster. Yet, Matt and Jeff continued to work their butts off, and they began to move forward in the business. It wasn't until May of 1999 that the Boys really came into their own.
