One of the most controversial storylines to ever be seen in WWE featured WWE Hall Of Famers Edge and Lita along with Matt Hardy. In real life, Lita was Hardy’s girlfriend and she cheated on him with Edge.
This ultimately led to Matt Hardy being livid and getting fired by WWE, only to be hired back so that he could feud with Edge and Lita back in 2005. The storyline truly blurred the lines between real life and kayfabe and it seems Lita is still feeling the effects of it to this day.
While speaking on The Kurt Angle Show, Edge talked about the controversial storyline between himself, Matt Hardy and Lita. Edge admitted that he didn’t enjoy anything about the feud.
“I think when everything with Matt [Hardy] and [Lita], I didn’t enjoy any of that, that was hard. It was a position that I put myself in and thought okay, I made my bed, I just got to deal with this. Then I thought okay, we’re here now, how can we pull a positive? Let’s make some money. That’s what we did, this is the situation, now let’s try and get something good out of this pretty lousy scenario, the matches were [good] though because I loved working with Matt.”
Edge and Matt Hardy eventually came to terms with what happened and made peace as well. For the most part, Lita has as well but she previously revealed that Lita still gets backlash for the storyline.
