Enigma: The Best of Jeff Hardy is a DVD showcasing the TNA career of "The Charismatic Enigma" Jeff Hardy. There are two discs in the set.
The first disc of the set covers Hardy's TNA debut up until November of 2004 . The first disc has seven matches. The second disc is his time in TNA from December of 2004 up until April of 2005. The second disc has six matches. Shortly after the last match on the DVD occurred, Hardy was suspended by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling for no-showing a pay-per-view. Hardy has since rejoined the WWE.
Unlike other TNA DVDs, there is no 'host', or narrator to explain his career in TNA. Between matches all thats there is the logo of the DVD, and an audio clip of his theme song.
All matches are shown in their entirety. On Disc 1, matches 5, 6 & 8 were shown on iMPACT!, and have commercial breaks cut out, shortening the matches by about 2 minutes. On Disc 2, match 5 has a commercial break cut out.
