Matt and Jeff Hardy shocked the world a few weeks ago when they made their WWE return at WrestleMania 33 and won the Raw Tag Team Championship. The Hardys have been known on the professional wrestling circuit now for more than two decades and it seems that a lot has changed since they were last in WWE.

Matt and Jeff were once part of Team Extreme along with Lita, something that helped to kick start their career in the early 2000s.

Matt and Jeff later branched off into singles wrestling and while Jeff lifted the WWE Championship, Matt was the one who was left in WWE after Jeff was forced for the drug issues that have dictated most of his life.

While The Hardys have been on WWE TV and even Impact TV over the past two decades, they have both had various relationships, some were more high profile than others. The Hardys have finally settled down and have found a point in their life where they could return to the company where they first found fame, but there are still a lot of things that the WWE Universe don't know about the relationships of The Hardys.

Police instead showed up at his brother Jeff's Hardy's house in North Carolina which obviously then annoyed his wife Beth Britt enough that she took to Twitter to call out Matt Hardy for once again looking for a reason to get attention. She stated that he had finally got what he wanted because everyone was talking about him but as ever it wasn't in a good way. Matt obviously didn't respond to her comments, but the WWE Universe backed up Beth's response.

Matt Hardy and Reby Sky have a strange relationship, to say the least. They were never a couple that the WWE Universe thought would last and their instincts were backed up in 2014 when Matt Hardy was arrested following an altercation with his wife in a motel room in Virginia.

Reby was also arrested and the pair were charged with assault and battery after an employee at the motel called 911 after overhearing their alleged brawl. The duo really fought one another as their mugshots showed scratches all over both of their faces. Reby seemed to come off much worse of the two though as she sported what looked like a fat lip and a black eye on hers. Luckily the couple later managed to move past this brief issue.

The match was over in a matter of minutes and it is one that has defined Hardy's career over the past few years.

At this time Jeff had a daughter and this was enough to convince him to sort his life out for her so that he would be able to see her grow.

Reby is also a wrestler and even though she played more of a role with her husband's storylines than she did in the Women's Division in Impact, she is considered to be a talented wrestler amongst many fans. Reby hasn't been seen on the wrestling circuit since The Hardys decided to make the switch from Impact Wrestling to WWE but she has had a lot to say online about the Broken lawsuit that she is currently fighting Impact for the rights of.

Unlike Matt's girlfriend, Beth isn't a wrestler and didn't have anything to do with the wrestling business at the time when they met. Even though Hardy has had his drug problems and his issues with being arrested Beth has always been the constant fixture that he has needed in his life and it seems that he has finally got to the point he was working towards for years. He's finally considered clean and able to sign a full-time contract with WWE.

Reby Sky and Matt Hardy are considered to be one of the most well-known couples in wrestling at the moment. But back in 2011 before they confirmed that they were dating, they were just another male and female wrestler in TNA.

Two years after that they were married.

Throughout the personal facts about Reby and Matt on this list, there has been one factor missing and that is the fact that the couple welcomed a son in June 2015. Maxel has been one of the biggest factors in getting The Broken Hardy gimmick over with the wrestling crowds wherever Matt has gone because it's a family affair.

Jeff Hardy, Reby Sky, and Maxel were all part of the gimmick with Matt and somehow Maxel always managed to remember where he was supposed to be and what he was supposed to do. Even when he was just a baby he was part of storylines and was once part of Decay's plan to defeat The Hardys by kidnapping him. Luckily, he wasn't kidnapped, and Decay were defeated and obviously deleted by The Hardys.

You might be wondering why Matt and Reby's relationship has had so many ups and downs. Well, that's probably because there's a twelve year age gap between Matt and Reby. When they met in 2011 she was just 24 years old and Matt was 36.

It seems that despite being from different generations and Reby being obviously much younger, the couple have still managed to figure things out and get back on the same page for the sake of their son. Maxel could be an added person in the WWE locker room if WWE decides to pick up The Broken Gimmick in full, which will also allow Matt and Reby to work together again. Reby Sky could even be part of the WWE Women's Division at some point as well.

Following his very public split with Lita, Matt Hardy went on to date 2005 Raw Diva Search winner Ashley. Matt and Ashley were not together for very long at all since Ashley was later put into a storyline with Paul London and Brian Kendrick and she was then said to have been in a relationship with London without ever announcing her break-up with Matt.

This caused a huge rift between London and Hardy that then boiled over online and saw the duo exchanging some nasty messages. It seems that Hardy has never been lucky when it comes to women, so at least he has finally found someone like Reby that is on the same page as him. Ashley later left WWE and London also headed to the Independent Cicruit as well.

Both Jeff Hardy and Mickie have recently returned to WWE and are now together on the Raw brand.

1 1. The Lita/Edge Triangle Ruined Matt's Perception Of Women

via keyword-suggestions.com

Matt Hardy's love triangle with Edge and Lita was one of the biggest stories in WWE in 2005. It was a real life personal drama that saw poor Matt as the victim. He was even fired from the company at one point before it was deemed too harsh and WWE instead used the real life situation to their advantage.

Matt obviously found it hard in his personal life after Lita because the couple dated for six years and it was something that he became complacent with. His relationship with Ashley a few years later didn't end well either, so Matt was then stuck in a strange position afterward until he then met Reby Sky. She obviously managed to change Matt's perception of women and allow him to move forward with his life.
