The Hardy Boyz

Matt and Jeff Hardy took the WWE world by storm due to their extreme style of wrestling that fans gravitated to. The duo made their names in the WWE early on teaming up with Lita to form “Team Xtreme” before focusing on their solo careers in 2002.

The duo have since reunited a few times but are currently solo due to an injury to Jeff.

As natives of Cameron, North Carolina, the brothers grew up big North Carolina Tar Heels fans and have been spotted at games over the years. The duo usually attend games in the Dean Dome and will hang out and take pictures with the players following the games.

They even congratulated the Tar Heels on winning the ACC Championship in 2016:

Jeff was spotted sitting behind the Tar Heels’ bench for a game against Notre Dame back in 2018 while he was sidelined from wrestling due to an injury. We should expect to see Matt and Jeff at future games in the Dean Dome again.
