An idea on how to book the Hardy's

Ok, with Jeff newly re-signed, and Matt as a heel, the time is right for a Jeff/Matt feud.

It should not be right away though. Here is how I see it playing out.

Jeff wins the X title, and has various feuds with x-division wrestllrs to build them up. A series of clean matches with Hardy winning, but with the others still looking strong.

This continues right up to around a month before DX. Jeff starts getting asked if he will cash in option 3 to face Matt. Jeff isnt sure. Matt starts cutting promos against Jeff and warning him to stay out of his way. Jeff choices to cash in, and wins at DX.

Matt and Jeff have a few matches before one final match at BFG with the loser leaving TNA.

Jeff wins, and Matt is free to go help out with OMEGA, or go back to WWE or whatever.

nt a bad idea actually, while EC3's the guy to build the future around, the present needs Jeff, he's the only guy who currently draws a dime...

Decent idea, plus you can have Eddie Edwards in the X Division, to put on couple on couple good matches. At the current moment Jeff does not deserve a title shot without a reason and there are other contenders before him. EC3, Drew Galloway and Tyrus, so having Jeff using the 'option C' would be a way to face Matt for title.

Get them away from the World Title and out of the company as soon as possible. Matt's doing good heel work and Jeff's one hell of a babyface but TNA can't really do anything else with these guys without hurting the company. They already put over The Wolves and will hopefully do the same for EC3, Tyrus, Galloway and EY. In my opinion, it's time for them to leave.

^The same people who still want to see Kurt Angle in 2016.

Easy answer here is EC3 gets the win over Hardy to make this come full circle (or they could wait to put the championship back on him. Granted, he's over, it's working, might as well keep the focus where it's been for the past year), but the eventual Matt vs Jeff match is def gonna happen. And is a smart move to allow it. No sense in building up something to not pull the trigger. Then again, that's sadly vintage TNA. Watch as Lashley ends up beating Matt instead and we're all left w/egg on our face.

That means me >:)

Actually I am ready for Angle to retire. However I would be cool with a Jeff/Matt match just not for the title.

Here is another idea. How about when Jeff comes back and he and Matt don't fight but have a rather uneasy relationship. I am not sure if TNA could pull it off but it could make for some entertaining TV. Have Matt and Reby make Jeff feel guilty for not supporting Matt like he said he would. Try and make EC3 out to still be the bad guy and Matt just doing what is best for his family. Maybe have Jeff help out Matt reluctantly now and then. If done right it could make for some cool drama.

Granted there are similarities but instead of looking at them look at the differences. Jeff "helped" EC3 because he had to due to his love for his brother. Not cause he wanted good things for EC3. With Matt he would be doing it for love of his brother and he wants good things for Matt. Jeff would be trying to get Matt back to the good side. It would be similar to Sting/Luger back when Sting was a face and Luger was a heel yet they were friends and worked together. It would lead to a question of will Jeff succeed in turning Matt back to a face or will Matt turn Jeff to a heel.

So a Kurt Angle fan who loves to see Angle perform automatically loves to see another Jeff/Matt feud?
Doesn't make any sense at all. The only thing Angle and the Hardys have in common is the fact that they were in WWE before. Not to mention that Jeff Hardy ain't that old.

That they were in WWE at around the same time, all became big stars in WWE first and all are very close to 40 (Jeff) or 40+. 2/3 are former WWE World Champions (All 3 if you count the ECW title run from Matt) and all were in their prime about 10 years ago (Longer for Angle)

TNA has three types of fans when it comes to talent. You've got your youth movement fan who wants every TNA guy to be under 40 and a future star, your nostalgia fan who is okay with matches such as Jeff Hardy/Matt Hardy main eventing major PPV's and guys who like a mix.

Mkcs would love if the Nwa would book Angle and hardys as their champions. Mkcs still think Rvd is relevant as a big star.

Although Matt Hardy is probably playing his role well, this can't possibly be the best thing TNA can book in 2016? If so, am not sure POP will love TNA by October.

Just thinking, Jeff vs Matt is TNA big feud. Ec3 is just the back up.

It does not have to be at BFG. The Hardys can have their match earlier and then Jeff vs EC3 could be a face vs face match at BFG, with Jeff dropping the title cleanly.

It would be fittiing.

1; Matt beats EC3 by cheating to retain the title.

2; Matt and Co. makes sure EC3 does not get a rematch.

3 Jeff cashes in Option C, and wins.

4 Matt and Jeff have a rivalry leading into August/September ending in a loser leaves town match for the title. Jeff wins, Matt is fire.

5 EC3 becomes number one contender going into BFG and beats Jeff cleanly.

No Jeff is a great chase guy, to build mega heat for the top heel. Keep it simple.

Jeff comes back, gets taken out again. ECIII and Jeff make peace. ECIII takes belt.

A humbled Matt, kicks his girl and Jeff and Matt put over Beer Money or The Decay.

ECIII becomes the new Mr TNA, replacing the loss of Styles. Jeff and Matt give the rub to guys who are going to be around the promotion for the next 3-5 years. The story gets a simple, but good ending for the fans.

But the story is EC3 getting his revenge on Matt & crew and ultimately winning the title again. Yeah you can put a roadblock in front of him while you do the Matt/Jeff feud but then EC3, probably by beating Tyrus to get his title shot, should face Matt in one last match and win at whatever ppv they decide to do.

Tyrus could be the person he beats to earn the BFG shot.

Tyrus would also be the one to cost him the title when he loses to Matt.

So, going into BFG, het gets revenge for being screwed by beating Tyrus.

As for a final match against Matt, I would say have him return at BFG to attack EC3 and Jeff.

This could be used to set up a match where Matt earns his way back into the company by winning. Matt beats Jeff to earn a contract, and a title shot at Genesis against EC3.

But that would be dragging out EC3/Jeff/Matt way too long. Honestly Slammiversy is the latest they should wait to pull the title off of Matt and put it on EC3. And EC3's revenge should be on Matt & Reby, beating Tyrus is just the gate EC3 has to pass through while you go through the Jeff/Matt feud because Matt needs something to do until he faces EC3.
