### First Hardcore Championship Reign (2019)

Hardy along with Edge, Shane McMahon, Cactus Jack, and Jon Moxley competed in a Gauntlet Match to determine the inaugural WSC Hardcore Champion. Jeff was the final man in the Gauntlet Match as it was only him and Moxley, but ultimately Moxley put Hardy down, making Moxley the first ever WSC Hardcore Champion.

Hardy then got a rematch with Moxley or the title, but lost again. He then got ANOTHER chance at the title against then champion Edge, which surprisingly saw Hardy victorious, earning his first WSC Hardcore Championship reign. Hardy then successfully defended his championship against Rob Van Dam in a TLC match and even his own brother Matt Hardy in a First Blood match, but after said match, when The Hardy Boyz rekindle their friendship, The Fiend appeared out of nowhere attacking the two, setting up a match between Hardy and The Fiend, where Hardy would wrestle under his alter ego **Willow The Wisp**. Sadly, The Fiend got the better of Willow, ending his first championship reign.

**Jeff Hardy** then appeared in the first ever WSC Royal Rumble at #15. during the match, Hardy unexpectedly got eliminated by Matt Hardy, and then Matt got eliminated by Edge himself. Hardy then competed in a Fatal 5 Way Match for the title along with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Jon Moxley, RVD and Abyss, where Hardy lost again. Hardy would then compete in the first ever Deadly Games Match along with Austin, Moxley, Mick Foley (FKA Cactus Jack), Adam Cole and Tommaso Ciampa. Sadly, Hardy got eliminated by Moxley as he pushed Jeff off the structure through the cell and into the ring, which led up to Moxley winning.

### Losing Streak and Multiple Time Champion (2020)

Hardy wouldn't been seen for a bit before coming back in the January 2020 Money In The Bank Ladder Match, where he would sadly fail. Hardy then competed in a Fatal 5 Match between champion Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles, Keith Lee, and brother Matt Hardy, which he failed. Jeff then competed in the 2nd Deadly Games Match with Lesnar, Edge, Moxley, McMahon and Finn Balor, which he again failed.

Things picked up however, at the April 2020 Royal Rumble Match where Hardy entered at #5. Though his momentum deteriorated as he got Stunnered by Kevin Owens, Hardy managed to wait till the end to strike and eliminate Aleister Black at the last second to win and capture his second WSC Hardcore Championship Reign. it didn't last long, as he got pinned by Black the next match. Hardy then got another chance again the next match along with Black, Randy Orton, and Abyss, where he shoved Black off of Orton for Hardy to pin and win his 3rd WSC Hardcore Championship reign.

After the match, Hardy would turn heel by attacking Black and even injure him during a post-match interview. Hardy would then successfully defend his title against Braun Strowman in an Ambulance Match and rival Jon Moxley in a Stretcher Match. After Hardy and Jon's match, Black would return and attack Hardy just like before except the tables have been turned, which sets up a 2 Out of 3 Falls Match for the title, which sees Black win the title back, ending Hardy's reign.

Hardy wouldn't be seen until he competed in a Ladder Match with his brother Matt along with D-Generation X (Shawn Michaels and Triple H), The Usos, and The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) to determine the first ever WSC Hardcore Tag Team Champions, though they failed to do so. Hardy wouldn't be seen for the remainder of the year until he entered the November 2020 Royal Rumble at #14. Being #14 is unlucky, Hardy soon got eliminated by Bobby Lashley with a Spear into a Barb Wire Board.

### Championship Pursuits (2021)

Hardy returned interfering after The Fiend and Black vs Edge and Christian's match with Matt and Lita (forming Team Xtreme), leading to a match between Team Extreme vs Fiend, Black, and Alexa Bliss in a TLC Match, which went on for a while but could not compete with The Fiend and they lost. Hardy then returned at the 2021 Royal Rumble at #24, though eventually got eliminated by Jon Moxley after a gory fight.

### Alliance with Darby Allin (2022)

Hardy would return at the WSC Pool Rumble to determine the first ever WSC Multiversal Champion, entering at #26, but got eliminated by rival Aleister Black not too long later.

Months later, Jeff and Matt as The Hardy Boyz returned after the Tag Team 2022 Elimination Chamber as the two, along with Sting and Darby Allin, were looking down at The Usos from the chamber. Then it was announced that Allin and Jeff would be forming their teams into one and would be facing against The Usos, D-Generation X, and RK-Bro at WrestleMania. Of which, Jeff would unleash his alter ego **Willow the Wisp** for the second time in WSC.

### WrestleMania (2023-present)

On January 2, Nathan announced the date of the WrestleMania match on January 8, which was the first WSC match of 2023. The match begins with each team jumping each other. Not 20 seconds into the match and Randy Orton decides to attempt and break Shawn Michaels's back, as he lunges Michaels into the edge of the announcer's table. Matt Riddle then follows with a Floating Bro to D-X, followed by The Usos performing a Suicide Dive to the two teams, followed by Willow performing a Whisper in the Wind to everybody below. Eventually, The Usos end up winning by performing a Double 1-D to Riddle and Darby Allin (with interference by Solo Sikoa).
