This is by far TNA's best DVD release yet. Jeff Hardy is my favorite TNA Wrestler so this was a pleasant suprise to me. Anyone who wants to start collecting TNA DVD's should purchase this one first.

this is an amazing dvd!!! this is just as good as the Mick Foley DVD or the Unertaker DVD!!! Awesome Jeff Hardy dvd just missing full metal mayhem against all odds but besides that it ruled!

People can say this DVD was rushed to make money off of Hardy's popularity/fanbase but you could understand why TNA did it because look at Hardy now...he's no showed two PPV's & who knows if Jeff is gonna be in TNA much longer since they can't trust him enough to put him in a high mid-card position anymore. They've invested time into making Hardy a top star so they may as well captialize before it's too late. However, there are too many filler matches & dud's for a two disc set, it would be better if this was a one disc set.

vs. AJ Styles (TNA debut) - It was a good match but the crowd was so into it that it made it seem better than what it was. Kid Kash & Dallas interfered.

Jeff Hardy signs the TNA contract - Just a segment where Dusty Rhodes has Hardy sign his TNA contract only to get interrupted by Monty Brown & Jeff Jarrett.

w/AJ Styles & Ron Killings vs. Kid Kash, Dallas, Monty Brown - Good six man tag match.

vs. NWA Champion Jeff Jarrett - This was one of the best matches on the disc. They really made it out to be like these two wanted to kill each other as Jarrett got busted open as security held the two apart before the ring introductions were finished. Alot of the wrestlers came out to watch this one. Again, one of the best matches on this set.

vs. Monty Brown - This match was on Impact so it's clipped. Nothing really special as this was just used to set up the "Monster's Ball" match between Brown, Raven, and Abyss for the Victory Road PPV.

w/AJ Styles & Ron Killings vs. Team Canada - Another IMPACT match. Just an average match with nothing special to talk about here since it was just used to setup all the matches for Victory Road.

Ladder Match vs. NWA Champion Jeff Jarrett - This match was from Victory Road & but wasn't better than their first match IMO. There was some good spots as Hardy is great at hardcore type matches but it seemed like everyone (the wrestlers & announcers) was more concerned about putting over the Outsiders reunion (Scott Hall & Kevin Nash) than having a great match as Scott Hall just kept interfearing & the ending was weak as Nash came out with gutairs for him & Hall and all three guys hit Hardy with it to cost him the match.

w/AJ Styles vs. The Naturals - A match form Impact & nothing mentionable here. Just a average tag match.

w/AJ Styles & Macho Man Randy Savage vs. Jeff Jarrett, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash - This match was from Turning Point & it basically an attempt to do a remake of the nWo angle with Jarrett assuming the "Hogan" role. They called themselves the "Kings Of Wrestling" even to the point where Hall & Nash came out dressed up like Elvis. Another good six man tag as this was the best Hall looked during his short TNA run. It was mostly AJ & Hardy since Macho Man didn't show until the very end & did a sleeperhold before pinning Jarrett with a horrible looking rollup pin. Good match but the ending killed it...and no wonder you haven't seen Savage since then.

vs. Bobby Roode - Nothing special here as this Impact match was pretty short & sweet.

Roddy Piper as Special Referee vs. Scott Hall - This match was from Final Resolution. Hall once again came out looking like Elvis & had a comedic interaction between him & Piper before the match...but that's all that's worth mentioning on this match because this match was completely horrible. Scott Hall just doesn't have it in him anymore & not Hardy, the appearence of Piper, or the suprize of Abyss at the end could save this match.

Falls Count Anywhere Match vs. Abyss - This match is from Destination X. This was one of the best TNA hardcore matches since they did go all around the arena & outside. Great match

w/AJ Styles vs. Abyss & Raven - It's from Impact so once again, it's clipped. It was a decent match but only there to have him & AJ get beat down to set up their two matches for Lockdown.

Steel Cage Tables Match vs. Raven - This one is from Lockdown. Basically the best match Raven's had in TNA for almost half a year and again, Hardy is great at these hardcore themed matches. One of the best matches on this disc. Raven & Hardy gave a great show.

Overall, there are alot of filler matches from Impact on this disc along with a dud (ala the Scott Hall match & the ending with Randy Savage) which does make this disc does seemed rushed. Sets like this should have been reduced to one disc & only give the two disc sets to those who have been around long enough footage to fill out two disc of quality matches (like how Christopher Daniels SHOULD HAVE BEEN). But if your a fan of Jeff Hardy...this is probably the only chance your gonna get to get his TNA matches on a DVD set. Overall, it's enjoyable.

EVen if you don't like TNA, you MUST own Enigma: The Best of Jeff Hardy. Its amazing, I watched every single match over and over!

I must say that Jeff is a great athlete. I think he will be able to become NWA champion very soon if he gets some personal problems fixed up. And his match with Raven at Lockdown is match of the year by far, so buy this dvd!

Jeff Hardy, popular in WWE for his TLC matches w/ brother Matt, against the Dudleys, Edge/Christian, has really come into his own in TNA as a singles wrestler. His high flying moves, and interesting personality fit more in TNA and less with the soap operatic WWE. This 2 disc set is a great introduction to Hardy's first 1.5 years in TNA. Matches include his intro into TNA vs. AJ Styles, tag team action w/ Styles vs. Team Canada as well as matches against Kid Kash, Alpha Male Monty Brown. PPV matches: Ladder match w/ Jeff Jarrett (Victory Road), tag match w/ AJ and Macho Man Randy Savage vs. Jarrett and Hall & Nash (Turning Point), hardcore match vs. Abyss (Destination X, JH get dropped hard on thumbtacks!), and a Six sides of steel (six-sided ring, also unique in TNA) table cage match vs. Raven (Lockdown).

This is a great set, with action galore. So if you are a Jeff Hardy fan, or not check it. TNA is coming to Spike TV in October 05. Check out TNA's website for more details on this and listing of this DVD package @ tnawrestling.com

Hardy is now back in the WWE but I'll miss him in TNA. He had a better ring entrance than his WWE one and better entrance music too. Plus I'm sure he had a better chance of being World champ in TNA than he does in the WWE. If Only he showed up in TNA more and didn't keep getting suspended for no showing. WWE marks say he no showed because he was mis-used but that's total bull. If you watch this dvd you'd see he wasn't mis-used at all. Plus you saw his face all over TNA posters whenever they were promoting a ppv. They would've put the whole company behind him and I don't think the WWE ever will. Hell I doubt the WWE will even give us a Jeff Hardy dvd.

Debut of Hardy in TNA
JEFF HARDY VS. AJ STYLES
A good match until Kid Kash interferes and causes a no contest ending. I always wanted to see a rematch but it never happened.
RATING: 71/2 out of 10


6 MAN TAG TEAM MATCH
Jeff Hardy, A.J. Styles and Ron Killings VS. Kid Kash, Dallas and Monty Brown
RATING: 7.5

Contenders match
Jeff Hardy vs Monty Brown
Hardy wins this one in a hard fought battle but loses the second time these 2 wrestled in a contenders match months later but that match isn't on the dvd.

RATING: 7.5


NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
JEFF JARRET VS. JEFF HARDY
Great match although I've had enough of Jarrett already. I mean this is an old match yet Jarrett is still in our faces as champ yet again. Still though his matches are better than WWE marks give him credit for.
WINNER: JEFF JARRET.
RATING: 8


JEFF HARDY & AJ STYLES VS. NATURALS
Not bad but it could've been better since both teams can go. TNA usually always puts on good tag matches and this match is no exception.
Winners: Hardy and A.J.

RATING: 7


JEFF HARDY, AJ STYLES & RON KILLINGS VS. TEAM CANADA

Good match but a little rushed since it was on Impact which is only an hour show.
WINNERS: JEFF HARDY, AJ STYLES & RON KILLINGS
RATIG: 7.5


VICTORY ROAD
LADDER MATCH FOR THE NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
JEFF HARDY VS. JEFF JARRET:

A Really good ladder match with Hardy getting screwed over by Hall and Nash.

WINNER: JEFF JARRET
RATING: 8


TURNING POINT
6 MAN TAG TEAM MATCH
JEFF HARDY, AJ STYLES & RANDY SAVAGE VS. JEFF JARRET,
Hardy and A.J carry the match for the team while Savage doesn't show up until the very end. He doesn't look in as good of a shape as he had when he was with Gorgeous George that's for sure. Anyway Savage gets the win with a roll up on Jaff Jarrett. Hardy and A.J. did all the work though.
WINNERS: JEFF HARDY, AJ STYLES & RANDY SAVAGE
RATING: 8


JEFF HARDY VS. BOBBY RHOODE:

Bobby Rhoode is a good example of a heel that Jarrett should just step back and let have the belt sooner or later. I mean Jarrett shouldn't always be the only heel allowed to be champ. Hardy wins this one but in a match at a later ppv Jarrett caused him to lose to Rhoode.
WINNER: JEFF HARDY
RATING: 7


FINAL RESOLUTION
SPECIAL GUEST REFEREE: RODDY PIPER
JEFF HARDY VS. SCOTT HALL:
Not the best match since Hall isn't in as good shape as he used to be. He was a clown with talent and in this match he's just a clown mostly. Hardy gets some laughs when he acts like he's surfing on Hall's back. Hardy wins after the twist of fate and Swanton Bomb on Hall. At least Hardy won this one but it's still one of the weaker matches on the dvd.

WINNER: JEFF HARDY
RATING: 6


DESTINATION X
FINAL ASSULT MATCH
JEFF HARDY VS. ABYSS:

Jeff Hardy against the under-rated Abyss who's much more than a Foley/Kane rip-off like WWE marks call him. This guy can go and all his matches are entertaining. Plus if a WWE wrestler that wasn't Foley used thembtacks in a match I'm sure WWE fans would be less quick to call him a wannabe Foley. Hardy wins with the Twist of Fate on top of a ladder.
WINNER: JEFF HADRDY
RATING: 9


JEFF HARDY & AJ STYLES VS. ABYSS & RAVEN
Very good but it goes to a no contest but there's still a lot of violence anyway.
WINNERS: NO CONTEST
RATING: 7.5


LOCKDOWN
6 SIDES OF STEEL TABLES MATCH
JEFF HARDY VS. RAVEN
This is a brutal and fun match. It makes me wish that when these two were supposed to wrestle in a Raven's Rules match at the following ppv that Hardy actually showed up.
WINNER: JEFF HARDY
RATING: 8.5

A couple months ago I was a WWE Fan and thought that TNA sucked even though I never gave TNA a serious look. Just because they had a small stage, and not as much money as WWE I refused to buy anything TNA. But then...I saw how everyone thought Enigma: The Best of Jeff Hardy was so good and I bought it...this is great!!! Unbelevable DVD!!! After that I bought the AJ Styles DVD and X Division DVD and they were even better!!! I watch TNA every Saturday night now. And even though I watched No Mercy and Homecoming and they were both good, I think Bound For Glory will be better because Bound For Glory has a 30 Minute Iron Man Match also but its Styles vs Daniels and that will be even better then Angle vs Michaels and that Ladder Match sucked Ultimate X at BFG will kill it. So although I still like WWE, after seeing this DVD, the AJ DVD, and the X Division DVD, I LOVE TNA!!!!

Enigma: THe Best of Jeff Hardy is an amazing DVD!!!!!!!! I love it whenever I get to see Jeff Hardy in action but top to bottom this DVD was covered with great matches!!!!!!!

Disc 1:

Jeff Hardy vs AJ Styles: Jeff's debut dosent dissapoint. 9/10

Jeff Hardy Contract Signing: Cool to see Jeff sign with TNA.

Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, and Ron Killings vs Monty Brown, Kid Kash and Lance Hoyt: A great Six Man Tag. Very entertaining. Some high spots as well. 9/10

Jeff Hardy vs Jeff Jarret NWA World title:
A phenomenal one on one match. Very action packed beggining to end. Hardy and Jarret put on a classic. 10/10

Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, and Ron Killings vs Team Canada: Another great Six Man Tag. The trio of Hardy, Styles, and Killings shows great teamwork. Good match. 8.5/10

Jeff Hardy vs Monty Brown No 1 Contender Match: Great match. Loaded with Twist of Fates, Pounces, Poetry in Motions, Whisper in the Winds, and so much more. 9/10

Jeff Hardy vs Jeff Jarret NWA World title Ladder Match: A great Ladder Match. An amazing see-saw move from Jeff, like the one he did at WWE No Mercy 99, only it was even better perfected. Props to both men. Ending involves two ladders and three guitars! 10/10

Jeff Hardy & AJ Styles vs The Naturals: A solid tag team match with a few high spots. 7/10

Disc 2:

Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, & Randy Savage vs Jeff Jarret, Kevin Nash, and Scott Hall: A little to much veterans here but nonetheless a good match that lasts a good amount of time and has some high spots from Hardy and Styles. 8.5/10

Jeff Hardy vs Bobby Roode: A pretty good one on one match Hardy fights off both Roode and manage Scott D'Amore. Last few minutes are very action packed. 9/10

Jeff Hardy vs Scott Hall: Kind of a squash all thanks to Hall but Hardy tries his best to turn it around with a few great moves. 6.5/10

Final Assault Falls Count Anywhere: Jeff Hardy vs Abyss: One of the best on the DVD!!! A Swanton through a table off a fifteen foot steel pole, Tables, Ladders, Chairs, Chains, and even a sick bump onto thumbtacks!!! Awesome match!!!

Jeff Hardy and AJ Styles vs Raven and Abyss: A pretty decent tag match but the post match attacks are BRUTAL! Tables, Chairs, and Chains are involved in the post match beatdown. 8.5/10

Jeff Hardy vs Raven Six Sides of Steel Table Match: A great Tables Match! A Table Match inside a Cage! Genius! Raven tries to smashe Hardy through a table but misses and goes through himself, and Hardy responds with a Twist of Fate, and sets Raven on the table, but misses a Swanton from the top of the cage just like Survivor Series 01!!! They brawl for a while with chairs, and then Hardy wins by splashing Raven through four tables from the top of the cage. Phenomenal. 10/10

A great DVD Buy IT!
