New Member of Aces & Eights revealed

[Stopspot]

But which would he fit into? Team him with Knox and be Aces and Eights tag team? TV title is filled up by Devon and Anderson has nothing to do in the X division.

 

[Solidus1]

Best fit would be the tag division I suppose. This is why a mid-card division is needed, we'd get to see guys like Anderson, Kurt, Magnus, and Garett fighting for a belt.

 

[Stopspot]

Yeah. TNA kinda shot itself in the foot by having a specific style tied to their one big Mid card belt. The TV title is more lower card in my opinion and should be used for guys like Robbie E to get over. They need a mid card belt for bigger guys/guys who are upper mid card.

 

[Solidus1]

A path to the WHC is the best way to put it. We actually see these guys fighting for something, working their way up.

 

[Stopspot]

How would you shape that then? A tournament (they already have BFG for that), match series?

 

[Solidus1]

No, not a tournament, nothing organized like that. Random idea, it would be nice to see a title defence every week on Impact for this belt, and the holder of this title has the privilege of choosing his opponent, but cannot choose the same man twice in one month. 6-8 successive defences = shot at the WHC, if they are willing to drop the new belt they hold.
I'm unsure on the last part, didn't put much thought into that, but the weekly defences seems a great idea.

Could it perhaps be something else than a belt if TNA would feel unsure on adding another belt? like a medal or a cup or something. FCW used to run the Jack Brisco championship as a stepping stone for their main eventers which was a medal which had to be defended in Iron man matches.

And in the old online fed we ran here I used a title which had it's number one contender decided by holding a medal for a set amount of weeks, defending it every week on the show but if he could hold it for say 30 days he got to pick a match against the champion.

I lold at Tenay's reaction when they unmasked him. "TAZ U KNOW HIM!"

FACEPALM!

 

[Solidus1]

Belt, medal, cup, it doesn't matter. The point of it would be to get these mid-carders on TV fighting for something. It must be frustrating being on the roster and having no idea what's next for you. Magnus hasn't been seen for a while now, and there was never any indication that he'd get a title shot soon even though he deserves it. Ratings would be consistently better if all these guys were on our screens more.

I like this.

Really digging the Tenay hate, he's a piece of shit announcer.

A&8's could have been done so much better in general. So much time, spotlight and seemingly effort has been put into having yet another dominant stable on TNA, but the members are lacklustre to say the least. It's a shame really, at one point I was kinda getting into it but I'm sorry but I'm not going to mark for Devon, Knox and Festus. Saying that I don't really know who TNA could have used to replace them, or if it would have even been better at all.

Heel Anderson could make me more interested, I'm not ashamed to say I'm an Anderson fan.

 

[Senhor Perfect]

There are plenty of guys out there that could be had with more name value. Cabana for one, his name has been pretty hot since the Punk promo. There are guys like MVP, Benjamin, Haas, Masters, Hart-Smith, etc. No one mind blowing, but I would've marked for any of them over Knox or DOC.

Agreed.

Lol, I'd take DOC and Knoxx over boring garbages that Benjamin, Haas and Masters are. Those 3 jackasses are totally useless. I don't know how much you've seen from those guys (recently or before), but bottom line, they can all kiss Knoxx's ass (and Knoxx isn't something special either). For the life of me, I haven't seen more boring wrestlers in a while, they sucked the energy out of ROH (Haas & Shelton) and nobody even likes them over there, and Masters almost killed the House of Hardcore show with his trash segment. Fucking clown.

Cabana and Smith though, they might be better than Knox, sure. Smith especially.

That makes two of us brother. Heel Asshole will be so much better.

So far I've gotten 2/3 predictions right for members of the Aces & Eights. D.O.C and Knox, Devon I didn't see coming though. It'll be interesting to see how many more I get right
