Hardcore Justice featured sevenprofessional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds andstorylines. Wrestlers portrayedvillains,heroes, orless distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[5]
This year, TNA changed the event's name from Hard Justice to Hardcore Justice in honor of theExtreme Championship Wrestling reunion show theme that it adopted. The show was originally going to be main evented by a match betweenRob Van Dam andJerry Lynn. However, the match had to be cancelled when Lynn pulled out due to a back injury. The replacement main event was Rob Van Dam vs. Sabu.[6][7]
