Edge, Lita and Matt Hardy controversy: Edge speaks about the Hardy Boyz and his current relationship with Jeff Hardy

While speaking about his relationship with the Hardy Boyz, Edge said that he and his partner Christian would have dinner with Jeff and Matt Hardy where they would talk about their in-ring performances. However, Edge admitted that after “the incident” a couple of things changed between him and the Hardy Boyz. While the affair did not affect Jeff Hardy personally, Matt Hardy and Edge's infractions couldn't be overlooked. Edge confirmed that things turned frosty between him and Jeff Hardy as well, but claimed that they are all in a better place after resolving their differences.

“We went through a period, as I think any brother who would support his brother, but then we came out of it on the backside, and I think when we all realized we ended up in better places anyway, and we all grew from it, it was just a lousy way to do it, but that’s all you can do, that’s life.”
