It could work. I've always thought TNA should do something with the TV title that would give fans a reason to watch and follow along. Make it so that anyone who successfully defends the TV title 10 times automatically gets a World title shot. That way, you give people a reason to follow along, and you can built anticipation as to who'll make it to 10, and who will actually then go on to win the big belt. Could be something that works for AWA. |

I've done it in prior Feds, but it had a 5 match max. 10 matches would be 5 months our time, that's a long time for a "weekly title defense" belt". But, for a World Title shot, it does need to be earned. Maybe 8 defenses, but then again, how many defenses thus far have been non JTTS guys? I kinda feel like the title went from IC stock value to WWE hardcore division value which is a real shame but easily fixable. There's so many guys in the second/third tier in the AWA that wouldn't take much. |

That's stupid. The TV champ should already be the number one contender, and should get the occasional title shot without having to give up his own title. |

I'm also thinking, with a deep enough roster, it shouldn't be too difficult to engineer a 'proper' handover to the next worthy contender, rather than vacate the title and have it settled how? With another TV title tournament? |

The only reason why it makes sense in TNA is because the X Division title now has a weight limit. It is basically a Cruiserweight title. These guys wouldn't otherwise get a shot at the Heavyweight title, but they get one chance to step up and go for the big title if they want. In AWA, there's no limitation as to who can compete for the TV title. So there's no reason why the TV champ should have to give up his title to get a shot at another. |

Yeah, sorry, Blue, I usually like your ideas, but I'm with Joe on this one. No reason for the TV champion to give up his title just to take a shot at the big one. He should already be the number one contender. |

10 is just a number. I'm not married to it as much as I am the basic concept. I don't have a problem with the TV title defended against JTTS in the current set up, because that's now Tully Blanchard did it in the 80's But yes, if you're going to make x number of defenses = a title shot, then you would have to alter that set up. |

Four matches left. I think the next SNW will be pulled off the schedule to save some time. Just an FYI. |

I'm fine with going monthly to keep things real. Dixie Carter would approve! |

I've just got a lot going on right now with a pair of special video projects for work, some freelance video editing outside of work, and all the usual. Things should get better but right now, I'm having some trouble staying afloat. I spent a few hours this morning writing but most of the day was doing video stuff. |

I think it's time for Jeremy to dust off that evil badminton tag team he created: [dohtml] <object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/ET6trYnJAdA?version=3&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/ET6trYnJAdA?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="360" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> [/dohtml] EDIT: SOME CONTEXT: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/video/2013...s-partner-video |
