My Version of TNA Hard(core) Justice 2011 (and tv leading up to it) (continuance from my Destination X)

First read my version of TNA’s Destination X tournament 2011

CRIMSON over ANDERSON
DANIELS or MATT HARDY… whoever

My Version of Destination X Tournament 2011 (and tv leading up to it)

If I had the book…
Destination X will have
– Angle vs Kennedy for the title
– Winner of X-Division tournament will get title shot against Abyss
– KAZ vs Robbie E (or Jay Lethal)
– face Kendrick vs Daniels – face Shelley vs heel Buck (one of them)
– invading heel Senshi (in TNA 2 prove he’s the best) vs Red (or Red’s alter ego) (or Jay Lethal)
– big 10 man tag or something to fill up the other slots – Morgan / Sting / AJ / RVD / Crimson vs Hardy / Joe / Bully / Gunner / Dreamer
In the tournament
– KAZ over Robbie (duh)
– Kendrick or Daniels either one – Shelly over Buck – Senshi over Red

Then – Kaz vs Shelley – Senshi vs Kendrick or Daniels

Outcome – Kaz over Shelley – Kendrick or Daniels over Senshi

Meanwhile the heavyweight match – Angle over Kennedy clean via submission – Kennedy slinks away with a snear

Then in the finals – prettyboy Kaz vs squeaky clean face Kendrick or workhorse Daniels – The story with Kendrick would be good guy gets beat clean, but gets jealous – Jealousy slowly drives him nuts… but Kendrick was just a heel – The story with Daniels in the final is Fortune might be torn apart?
– Who do AJ / Roode & James Storm cheer for? Interview them?
– Who does Abyss cheer for? He roots for KAZ or Kendrick, he’d like to pull out their hair – His girl Janice would look good with a wig…

KAZ wins, Abyss hits the ring immediately fresh!
– Logic would say Abyss over clean and quick to setup a match for the next PPV – I’d like to twist it though… small package KAZ wins – Abyss is dumbfounded, but still gets his rematch – Faces and Fortune come out to celebrate with KAZ – Bischoff gives the X-division belt to KAZ in a moment that should seem like a milestone – Bischoff then DISAPPEARS from the PPV so as not to take heat from KAZ – Angle comes out and things grind to a hault – New champion Angle even comes out to give KAZ a pat on the back then Angle leaves – KAZ is hoisted by Fortune – KAZ with a glory shot putting him over to close the PPV
