Alot of people are criticising Smackdown for the move they made with giving Khali the World title after Edge had to relinquish it due to injury. Although this could turn out pretty well if booked properly. (Although we know theres a 90% chance it won't
)
Anyways, heres how I would handle this situation:
- Khali is now world champion
- At the Great American Bash have the Triple threat match, a no DQ match.
- Early on in the match up, have Kane and Batista decide to take out Khali and put him through one of the announcers tables. Then Kane and Batista go at in the ring while Khali is lying out on the floor. Have the match end when Kane goes for the Chokeslam on Batista, but Khali comes into the ring again, pushes Batista out of the way and Chokebombs Kane.
- Now Batista gets up, runs against the ropes, ducks and when Khali turns around Batista spears him, but it does not knock Khali down. Khali grabs Batista, Chokebombs him, and pins him for the three.
- This way, we don't see Khali much in the match, but he still regains crediblty as a monster, and Kane and Batista still looks strong as they took him out at the beginning until the end of the match.
- Also have Matt Hardy win the US Championship against MVP in his match.
Next Week On Smackdown
[/b][/u]
- Batista comes out to the ring, and says, all he needs is a one on one match with Khali and he would beat him. He goes on to say that Kane got in his way on Sunday (Batista is still a face but is too proud to admit that Khali was too much for him at the Bash)
- Kane then comes out, and says lets see who's the better of the two now. So the two get ready to fight before Teddy Long comes out and announces that it will be Kane vs. Batista later tonight.
Kane and Batista come out for their match. Near the end Kane is about to go for the Chokeslam but Batista kicks him in the groin, and gets himself DQ'ed. Batista then Batista bombs Kane, and leaves the ring. Kane sits up again and begins to laugh. Batista is now turning heel, and with thus, it starts a fued between the two and gets them out of the title picture.
Khali defeats Ric Flair (or some other face midcarder) in his first title defence in the main event in a short squash match. Khali's translator says that The Great Khali already looks dominant, but that he will prove to all the doubters that Khali will go down in the record books as the most dominant champion of all time. This concludes the Smackdown broadcast.
The Following Week On Smackdown
[/u]
Teddy Long announces that tonights main event, it's gonna be a Champion vs. Champion exhibition match. Khali versus Matt Hardy.
When Hardy is making his way down the ramp out to the ring for the main event, Khali comes out behind him and viciously attacks him before the match starts. He continues to assault Hardy and beat him down until he is a bloody mess and is left unconscious in the ring to end the programme.
The Next week on Smackdown
Khali and his translator come out to the ring and say that Khali proved last week when he beat down Matt Hardy that he was on his way to becoming the most dominant champion in history and that Khali means it and will continue to wreak havoc on Smackdown until the world believes it.
Matt Hardy then comes out to the ramp and cuts a promo saying you can try all you want to destroy every bone in my body but no matter what I am going to continue to do what I love to do because Im the best now I've ever been and that Im at the top of my game. He then goes on to say that Khali may be a big guy but I have a bigger heart than what Khali ever will. Hardy is then about to leave but turns around and says, one more thing, "Khali....I'm challenging you to a match at Summerslam because even though I have a match tonight against MVP in a non title match I will never give in and I Will Not Die!! Khali accepts and the segment ends.
- It's now time for Hardy vs. MVP in a non title rematch and MVP comes out and says he just spoke to Teddy, and he says if I win this match, he'll get a title rematch against Hardy next week on smackdown.
- The match raves on between Hardy and MVP, until theres a ref bump, and Hardy hits the Twist of Fate but the refs down. Khali comes out, and chokebombs Hardy then MVP just about gets the arm over Hardy. The ref recovers and counts the 3. MVP will get a US title match next week.
The last Smackdown Before Summerslam
At the beginning of the programme Matt Hardy is shown in Teddys office talking to him. Teddy says that he is very concerned about Hardys wellbeing this Sunday, and is considering calling the match off. Matt tells him not too, and reminds him that he "Will Not Die" and cuts a promo about this is his dream and he's living it right now. Teddy agrees and says he will let the match go on, but the match will be Non Santioned. (much like HBK's return match at Summerslam 02) Teddy says with all due respect Matt, I don't think you can pull this off on Suday. Matt says he will prove everybody wrong.
It is announced that at Summerslam, it will be Khali and Hardy for the World Title in a No Count Outs, and No DQ Non Santioned match. JBL and Cole also agree with Teddy that as much as they think Hardy has improved they also don't think he can pull it off.
US Title Match
Hardy vs. MVP
Khali and his translator come down halfway through the match to watch at ringside. Hardy is about to win the match after he scores with the Twist of Fate but Khali pulls the ref out of the ring before he can make the three. The ref is about to call the match a no contest because of Khali's interuption but Khali brain chops him before he can. Hardy gets up and is eyeballing Khali from the ring, and is waving Khali on to come into the ring and fight, but just when it looks as if Khali's gonna get in to the ring, MVP recovers, and pulls Hardy around and hits him with the Playmaker and Khali throws the ref in to make the 3 count for MVP to regain the US title.
Now, there is two ways I could finish this.
You could either have Matt Hardy go on to win the title from Khali or you can have him enter a very close effort and make him prove to Khali that he may have underestimated Hardy along with all the doubters.
Eitherway you could do it, I have done two things here.
1. Set up a fresh new fued between Hardy and Khali were Hardy eventually beats Khali in the series for the title.
I also accomplished the goal I planned to do by writing this.
2.
Make Matt Hardy a main event star.
Thanks for reading.
Now let the criticism fly!
