In 2005, Edge came under fire from fans after having a real life affair with Amy Dumas (Lita in the WWE). Dumas was the girlfriend of Matt Hardy, who was also a close friend of Edge. The affair began while Dumas was out of action with an injury. After the affair became public news, Hardy was released by the WWE. This resulted in more hatred from the fans toward both Edge and Dumas. However, when Matt Hardy returned to the WWE, the real life affair was turned into an on-screen storyline.
