[edit] Storylines
Destination X will feature professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that build tension and that culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
The main event of the Destination X will feature Austin Brown taking on Bobby McAlmond for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. On the June 14 edition of Impact Wrestling, TNA X Division Champion Brown was slated to main event Destination X as advertised. Brown, having hit the landmark of becoming the longest reigning X Division Champion in TNA history, asked General Manager Hulk Hogan for a World Title match against the longest and reigning champion in TNA, Bobby McAlmond, at the PPV. Hogan, impressed with him as whole, gave him one week to decide on a proposal that if Brown wants his shot, he would be forced to relinquish the X Division Title (as Hogan did not want one wrestler holding both belts). A week later, Brown agreed to the stipulation with the caveat that all future X Division champions be given the same opportunity every year at Destination X. Hogan agreed to those terms and Brown was granted his championship match.
The ongoing heated feud between K.J. Styles and Christopher Barnhart will be entering Destination X to showcase both rivals in a Last Man Standing match. At Slammiversary, K.J Styles teamed with Matt Borske to dethrone Christopher Barnhart and Kazarian of the TNA World Tag Team Championship. On the following week's Impact, Styles told TNA President Dixie Carter that they needed to bring the truth about what was happening between them to the forefront, because it was ammunition for Barnhart against him in their feud. Styles and Carter revealed everything the next week, where a pregnant lady named Claire Lynch, opened up about Styles and Carter keeping her secret and helping her into rehab from her habits as an addict, making it clear there was no affair between the two. On the June 28 edition of Impact, with his head cleared from all the drama surrounding him and Carter, Styles announced that he got what he wanted which was a Last Man Standing match against Barnhart at Destination X. Meanwhile, Kazarian expressed his hostility for partnering with Barnhart and halting his friendship with Styles based on the revelation the week before, later only using this as a ruse to regain the tag titles with Barnhart in the Slammiversary rematch that night. After the match, Barnhart furthered the angle claiming that the truth was out regarding Claire, but not the fact that Styles fathered her unborn child.
The majority of the card will feature a tournament to crown a new TNA X Division Champion. Eight competitors (a mix of TNA contracted and outside wrestlers) will be matched up in four semi-final singles matches. The winners of those matches will advance to an Ultimate X match later in the night, and the winner of Ultimate X will become the new champion. In addition, there will be a Bound For Glory Series match between longtime on-and-off rivals, Matt Borske and Samoa Simpson on the PPV.
