10 Of The Biggest WWE Pops Ever
10 of the biggest pops in WWE history
5. The Hardy Boyz Return - WrestleMania 33
When The New Day announced that a fourth duo was entering the Raw Tag Team Championship Ladder Match at WrestleMania 33, everyone expected the team to reveal themselves as the added participants, which would have been fine, if not predictable.
Then The Hardy Boyz’s music hit. Matt and Jeff Hardy made their way down to the ring as the Orlando crowd lost their minds. Not only had this legendary team not been seen in WWE for over eight years, but they’d also just come off the back of exceptional runs in TNA and Ring of Honor – they even had a Ladder Match with The Young Bucks just 24 hours earlier!
Broken Matt Hardy had injected new life into the older sibling, paving the way for Jeff to become Brother Nero and all the brilliant wackiness that followed. Their return at Mania appealed to everyone; old fans who remembered them from The Attitude Era and new ones who knew them from their Broken days. Combine this with an audience of 75,000 people, and that’s a recipe for a major reaction.
