5 WWE Superstars who are close to their onscreen persona in real life

Straight edge on screen, Straight edge offscreen

#4 Jeff Hardy

That face paint says it all

Jeff Hardy has always been an enigma – The cruiserweight who was willing to do any dangerous move for the sake of making a match better. Jeff jumped off ladders, went through tables, leaped off the top of steel cages and pretty much did everything that was considered impossible in the WWE.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

During the end of his first WWE run, Hardy was given the gimmick of a lost soul character, which is exactly how he is in real life as well.

Hardy has battled drug and alcohol issues and once turned up to defend his TNA World title against Sting intoxicated. But he is also an artist – dwelling in to painting and music and all together giving the impression of being an outcast in real life.

WWE and later TNA booked Hardy in a similar manner, alluding to his real life issues and describing him as some what of a Jim Morrison clone – A troubled genius.
