With all the iconic, death-defying moments that have made up Jeff Hardy's career, it is amazing that the 41-year old Superstar is still competing at the level he is today.

But before the Charismatic Enigma was wowing fans in TLC matches and as World Champion, Jeff Hardy was a jobber in the new generation era.

Joining the company in 1994, Hardy's first match would be against Razor Ramon, and competed as Keith Davis, the name of the original jobber that the Bad Guy was going to face.

Hardy would continue his jobbing ways for several years, until 1998, when he and brother Matt would be pushed as a tag-team.

Rising to popularity during the Attitude Era, the team would eventually go their separate ways in 2002, though would have the occasional reunion.

In 2008, Hardy captured his first of three World Championships.
