WWF Hardy Boyz - Leap Of Faith

WWF - Hardy Boyz: Leap of Faith Matt and Jeff, two brothers from North Carolina, had a dream that they would one day become professional wrestlers. They trained themselves, they formed a backyard wrestling league, they worked indie shows for no money, and they loved every minute of it. When they were finally handed contracts, they didn't bother reading - they just signed the lines knowing that their lives would make a huge change for the better. Leap of Faith takes us on Matt and Jeff Hardy's journey toward stardom. Their first stint in the WWF (I know it's now WWE, but this video doesn't document anything post name change) had them portray the Jynx Brothers, a ridiculous masked team that lasted all of a few weeks. Unfortunately, the video does not mention that at all, so consult Wrestlecrap.com for more info. The story begins in their home of Cameron, NC, where we learn about their early days. Their dream of being wrestlers began in the late '80s, and they quickly began working toward that goal. Matt learned to sew so that they could have costumes. They videotaped their goofy promos, some of which we get to see on the DVD. They also set up a wrestling league in their own yard. This footage is also omitted from the DVD, but I respect the WWF's decision of not wanting to promote this dangerous activity. In addition to background, we also learn about the Hardyz' personalities - they're not too far from their wrestling gimmicks. Through interviews with them, their father, and fellow wrestlers, we learn that Matt is the focused, responsible one, while Jeff really is the eccentric, crazy one. They even show footage of Jeff building a volcano in his backyard so that he can jump over the flames with his dirtbike. See? Told you he was crazy. Aside from these interesting and humorous stories, the DVD focuses mostly on wrestling. At first, the Hardyz were jobbers (guys who never win), getting pummeled by the likes of Kane, Steve Austin, and Rob Van Dam. But in 1999, they were given their chance to really step up. They had a brief run with the Tag Team titles that summer, but it was at the No Mercy Pay Per View where they became stars. They fought Egde and Christian in the first tag team ladder match. The contest was unbelievable. The Hardyz have since competed in many ladder matches, each time all teams involved raising the bar higher and higher. The video shows clips of some of these memorable matches along with commentary from Matt and Jeff along with Edge, Christian, Buh Buh Dudley, Mick Foley and Lita (their partner in Team Extreme). The clips will make you stare in disbelief as if you were watching a car wreck. The Hardyz, and the guys they fight, are tough, creative risk-takers, and it is unbelievable how they make it out of these matches alive. If seeing a guy dive off a 20-foot ladder onto someone else is your idea of fun, this is a must-have video. Leap of Faith also comes with six of the Hardyz' favorite matches in their entirety because as good as highlights are, you need to watch the full match to get a true feel for what these guys are putting themselves through all for the sake of entertainment. The matches are: First Tag Team Title win - 7/5/99 No Mercy Ladder Match - 10/17/99 SummerSlam TLC (tables, ladders, and chairs) Match - 8/27/00 Unforgiven Cage Match - 9/24/00 Wrestlemania X-7 TLC II - 4/1/01 Intergender Triple Threat Match - 4/9/01 The DVD also comes with the Hardyz' Home Video Collection featuring lots of funny stuff, especially the promos they did when they were youngsters. Leap of Faith presents a story of two brothers who worked hard to achieve a goal and never gave up. Their hard work paid off, and it continues to pay off as they frequently put their bodies on the line to please the fans. Any fan of high-flying wrestling will enjoy this showcase of two amazingly exciting entertainers.
