On the latest episode of Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy, the TNA star talked about the 25th anniversary of TLC 2 at WrestleMania X-Seven, calling it the best story told in any TLC match the teams had.

Hardy has previously called it his favorite match and said it remains the work he is most proud of. You can check out some highlights below:

On the Match:

“It was the best story told in any TLC match that we had. It was the strongest from a psychological standpoint, it made the most sense. Our positioning of the ladders and getting into everything, I thought we were really meticulous with everything we thought about and did. And [we] had some amazing ‘holy s**t’ moments at the end. It is a match I am just extremely proud of, and proud of all the men and women that were involved in it.”

On the Backstage Reaction to It:

“People were thrilled. I think they had been happy with that show… Coming off match after match on WrestleMania 17 compared to WrestleMania 16 previously, I think they were just getting happier and happier as the card kept getting better and better. It was just a really strong card.”
