TNA Starting an All X-Division Show: Could it Revive the X-Division?

For a while now, Spike TV has been asing TNA to pitch a new idea for a TV show on the network. According to various wrestling outlets, TNA has pitched an idea to Spike for an all X-Division show. This could be the adrenaline shot TNA needs to make the X-Division what it was.

Currently on the TNA roster there is 10 active members of the roster who are considered X-Division competitors. They are: Sucide/Kaz, Homicide, Jay Lethal, Consequences Creed, Kiyoshi, Sheik Abdul Bashir, Amazing Red, Eric Young, Alex Shelley, and Chris Sabin.

This is a very strong group of talent, but I fear that is not a big enough roster to fill an hour timeslot which is most likely what Spike would want.

For TNA to successfully make this show work, I believe TNA should bring in Japanese talent for matches. TNA, I believe, has a working relationship with New Japan Pro Wrestling and could bring in talent from the promotion for matches.

Another possibility could be that TNA could bring in independent workers and workers from Mexico, Europe and Japan. Guys like Jack Evans, Teddy Hart, Shiima Xion, and Trent Acid would be great additions to matches.

We could also see the rebirth of the Super X Cup. Tournaments for No. 1 contenders or even for vacant championships.

The X-Division has been, and always will be, one of the most exciting and electrifying types of wrestling. If TNA properly books this show then we could see the rebirth of what made most of us TNA fans.
