on april 2 at, wrestlemania 33, the hardy boyz made an unannounced return to wwe, after hosts the new day (big e, kofi kingston and xavier woods) announced that the triple threat ladder match for the raw tag team championship which had been set by wwe before the event was now going to be a fatal four-way match. they then began jokingly questioning the arena about who the mystery team could be, before the hardy boyz's made their entrance to the stage to a massive ovation from the crowd. at the event, the hardy boyz won the raw tag team championship, defeating the teams of enzo amore and big cass, cesaro and sheamus, and then-reigning champions luke gallows and karl anderson. the night after wrestlemania on "raw", they successfully defended the raw tag team championship against luke gallows and karl anderson. afterwards on "raw talk", matt mentioned that the hardy boyz had successfully completed the expedition of gold after winning the raw tag team championship. at payback, the hardy boyz retained their championships against cesaro and sheamus. after the match, they were attacked by cesaro and sheamus. the next night on "raw", the villainous cesaro and sheamus would explain their actions, claiming the fans were more supportive of 'novelty acts' from the past like the hardy boyz, who they feel didn't deserve to be in the match at wrestlemania. subsequently at extreme rules, the hardy boyz lost the titles in a steel cage match against cesaro and sheamus, and failed to regain it the following month at the inaugural great balls of fire event. on august 20 at the summerslam pre-show, the hardy boyz teamed with jason jordan against the miz and the miztourage (curtis axel and bo dallas) in a losing effort.
