Yes, I am replying to my own quote =)
(1) I think Storm at BFG would be best.
A full year feud that has been done right for the most part. I haven't felt that "
ugh, Storm and Roode" feeling that I have with a lot of 1 year build ups. This one has remained fresh and has kept me involved in it since when Roode hit Storm with the bottle. BFG being the biggest PPV of TNA's year, I think it will be the perfect time to end the feud.
(2) I think Sabin IS worthy to take the belt. Hell, I loved the MCMG, but
I have loved "HAIL SABIN" since his debut. If he was to take it I could see it happening at Destination X, but I want him to drop the MCMG entrance before he gets the belt... HOWEVER, after watching the recent Joey Ryan video, I will say this. There is a possibility that if they run the X-Contract Tourney again this year, I see Ryan winning the contract as a "
Fuck you Taz! I got a contract anyway!" moment. If this occurs at Destination X, I can see Joey taking the belt from Aries @ BFG.
(3) I think the fighting champ and weekly defendings of the belt have helped it to be more interesting (even though I loved it when EY had it and the TNA Championship belt). However,
Devon is just filler to me at the moment. I would not mind the belt being passed around to a few more like RVD, Hardy, Styles, and Gunner, but
I want it to be on Crimson by the end of the year. Why? Because I would like Crimson to have a 6 month run with the belt, defending every week, and losing it at Lockdown or Slammiversary. This would give Crimson momentum as
his "undefeated streak" has been forgettable and would push him to either "prove" he is worthy of moving the the main event, or quit featuring him as the "undefeatable" character he just doesn't pull off. I would not mind him losing the belt to a Matt Morgan or Pope (after he returns for several months) and pushing these characters all further up the ladder.
