Will Christopher Daniels ever win a world title?

How can you say that without advance knowledge of what it would be? And you just said earlier that he "deserves" the belt. What's more token than giving a belt to a guy for his year's of service? Tbh, Daniels is in the same trap that Christian has been in over in WWE (and that Dolph may find himself in as well). He's just WAY too good at making others look better to be given a meaningful run with the top belt.

I don't think you should be held back for making others look good, eventually someone should return the favor.

For sure, I'm not agreeing with the philosophy but I can't deny it exists and is used in both WWE and TNA constantly. Funnily enough, Flair was a long-running champion for the exact reason that he could make others look great (a lot of guys had their best match with him) yet that seems to be forgotten these days. In the case of Daniels, I can't trust that TNA wouldn't just give him the token run and since I love him I'd rather not see that happen.

Back in Flair's day they remembered making others look good is what made the promotion look good.

If this was the beginning of his career I'd agree I'd rather not have a Chris Sabin style token run that could ruin their chances at being seen as a top talent down the line, however with this being the end of the road almost for Daniels, I can't see how a Mark Henry style "thank you" run could hurt him at all. Regardless of how it happens and how it long it lasts, it would be nice to see former world champion on his wiki page.

They still gotta face each other in the BFG series, but then again, AJ in the series and he's not supposed to be challenging for the World title this year so fuck continuity.

As for a World title reign, I'm not a fan of guys getting the belt because of "years of service" as the belt should be for the top guys who people pay to see. That being said, TNA gave Chris Sabin a reign, and tbh no one really moves the dial in TNA anyway so I can't see why Daniels shouldn't get a run.

With AJ it's he couldn't get a title shot til BFG 2013, so if he wins then he gets the title shot the first chance he is allowed to get.

Anyway, with Daniels hopefully he.can get a good run with the title, at least 2-3 months would be good for me.
