A current WWE superstar paid homage to the legendary tag team The Hardy Boyz during this week’s episode of RAW.
Matt and Jeff Hardy are one of the most decorated and accomplished tag-teams not only in WWE, but in wrestling history. They are a 15-time world tag team champions across WWE, WCW, TNA and ROH promotions. As singles wrestlers, the brothers have done it all by themselves, with Jeff winning the World Heavyweight, WWE and TNA World Championships while Matt won the latter belt twice during the height of his “Broken” character.
On this week’s episode of RAW from Raleigh, North Carolina (Hardys’ home state), Bayley and Raquel Rodriguez squared off in a singles bout. During the match, The Role Model executed her version of Twist of Fate on Big Mami Cool outside the ring, paying tribute to the iconic brothers.
The homage didn’t end there when the competitors entered the squared circle. To set things up, Bayley dropped an elbow to Rodriguez from the top rope. The former multi-time women’s champion then went back to the top again and surprisingly delivered a Swanton Bomb, much to the delight of the fans in North Carolina.

Unfortunately for Bayley, her Hardy Boyz callback wasn’t enough to beat Rodriguez, who defeated her with a Tejana Bomb following the interference of Roxanne Perez, her Judgment Day teammate.
