How can I blast through pre hard-mode quickly?

Playing through pre-hardmode can feel like a slog. Especially when it comes to dealing with bosses and building arenas when I want to get my hands on some juicy hardmode loot.
Can you give me suggestions on how to speed through pre hardmode effectively and reasonably.
 
you can dynamite-cheese the wall of flesh using special bridge setups and they're the only required pre-hardmode boss.

that being said you are going to have to be pretty good to pull that off without fighting anything else, so maybe fight the evil boss for the armor and weapons to help with that.
 
I believe the original question was what methods exist for beating the wall of flesh as quickly as possible.
To that question I don't have any full help I can give, but the preparation of the fight can be cut down on with use of water walking and obsidian skin potions for better mobility over the lava, you should still clear out the troublesome walls of the demon houses though. If you can spare the time to fight skeletron and gather some materials, the night's edge is a great weapon to have for the fight, so long as the top chest in your dungeon is a gold one and not a wooden one, it will always have a muramasa in it.
Going ahead with rushing hardmode does come at a risk of lacking preparation for the changes to the world, it was designed with the idea that you already have sufficient movement abilities, structures to help fight tougher opponents and even more simple things like already lit up spaces of land. I will not say that it is a bad idea to get hardmode started as quickly as possible, just that I hope you know what you are doing.
 
Thanks for all the help fellas!
Although to specify, I meant what methods exist to beat all the bosses quickly UP UNTIL wof. You know how building arenas can be time consuming, but frequently using builder workshop and tedit can feel very “cheat-y” (and no I don’t usually opt for cheese strays)
Other than that, thanks for the help this far everyone! And sorry for the late reply.

Rush evil boss, kill using a minecart & bumper rails if EoW, if BoC, just get some jester arrows
Then fight Skeletron using molten gear obtained via mining using evil pickaxe.
Rush Night's edge materials.
Kill WoF with Night's Edge.
My best time is 3 hours which is pretty quick
 
Huh, thanks for the advice cobalt! Never tried using minecarts for EoW. Building arenas will still be a pain especially for the WoF but im feeling confident!
 
In my experience just getting Night’s Edge as fast at possible (doable quite easily in an hour or two) will shred WoF
