5 Former WWE World Champions who may never win another

#3. Jeff Hardy-The No Fear WWE Champion

Jeff Hardy as Champion

"The Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy is well known for his WWE Tag Team Championship reigns with his brother Matt Hardy, but some often forget that he is also a 3 time WWE World Champion.

Jeff Hardy has been competing in the ring for almost 30 years now and has won championships all over the world. His 3 WWE World Championship reigns took place in 2008 and 2009, at the height of his singles career.

He left WWE a few years early but made his return and worked his way back up the card. Being separated from his brother Matt, it was his time to shine.

Hardy had failed attempts at winning the world title after different circumstances caused his defeat. He was later found beaten up in a stairwell and was off TV for a while. Upon returning, he defeated Triple H and Edge in a Triple Threat Match to win the WWE Championship at Armageddon.

He would lose the title shortly after due to his brother Matt turned on him by getting involved in his match and hitting him with a chair.

Later in the year, Hardy would compete against Edge once again and win the World Heavyweight Championship from him. CM Punk would then cash in his Money in the Bank contract against Hardy and win.

Hardy would defeat him in a rematch to win his third World Championship, but CM Punk would eventually win it back and end his reign.

Now that Jeff Hardy is a singles competitor again, he could possibly make his way back up the card. The legend has not been doing much but it is rumored he will be used more now that live crowds will be back. WWE reportedly has plans to bring back his popular "No More Words" theme song. This will no doubt get a huge pop from the crowd.

Jeff Hardy has said there are still things that he wants to do while he is competing in WWE but it will take a lot of build-up to get him back in the championship picture.
