Because Shane McMahon isn't paid to be a skilled wrestler. Agreed. Shane Mcmahon wasnt shoved at us every week, with all the girls and 13 year olds going crazy for him, he wasnt promoted as one of wrestling's hottest prospects, and he has not let the company down on numerous occasions. Shane Mcmahon was promoted as the crazy spot monkey that he is, and everyone knew he wasnt long-term any time he wrestled. Believe me, we ALL love a huge Jeff Hardy bump, but we just love it in the mid-card, not anywhere close to a maint event.

I'd assume its because no one really expected Shane to do the crap that he does. So its more of a "oh my God did he just do that". Jeff on the other hand gets paid to do that every week so it becomes routine more so than anything. And I guess people are tired of the same things from him.
I dont have much of a problem with him though. Though I lost some respect for him when he managed to get himself suspended this year, thus blowing his possible big break.

Hardy's fun to watch, as long as he's no where near a main title, just like Punk. Oh wait......

Shane is Simba, while Jeff is the cracked-out monkey

you make a valid point but jeff screwed himself by getting suspended twice for the same thing

Mainly because Shane doesnt perform nearly as much as Hardy, plus Shane didnt get busted with drugs on the wellness test.

People know that when Shane wrestles, he's just going to do some crazy spot, they don't expect a good match (although he almost always puts one on). Jeff on the other hand, is a wrestler, who shouldn't just use high spots. That being said, I don't believe Jeff just uses high spots anymore and has turned into a much more well-balanced wrestler. That's just the argument I can see people using.

I don't hate jeff hardy.. He is cool and should win the wwe title. HHH has had the title for a little while so I am sick of him already... Khali will not win and that match should have been jeff's. Shane is ok but I don't find him to be that great in the ring. Sure he can try to kill himself by jumping off of tall places but that doesn't make him great in my book..

The reason is because Vince is a former two time world champion, while Shane has never won a world title, Vince is an ego-maniac, since he's the boss he can book him self to win a world title, but he can't book his son to win a world title even though he's done more crazy spots in wrestling then most people(ex:jumping off of numerous titantrons, recieving a belly to belly suplex through a glass wall, etc.). It just doesn't seem fair to most people that Vince has two world title reigns and Shane has none.

Because Shane's actually entertaining? I agree Jeff was WWE for many years before he went to TNA so when he came back all the young fans didn't know he was so ,he was completely new to the younger fans,So he is more entertaining to them as he is to us
