    I like the concept of awarding a World Championship Match to a Champion at the cost of his current championship belt. I that it establishes prestige to a title to know that by holding it you could be a World Champion. As well as takes the belt off a champion without making him look weak by losing to someone in the division. Seriously how could you take Aries seriously as a World Title Contender if he drops his belt to Zema Ion. This way they both win, Ion becomes champion after a great champion. Aries gets a world title shot and wins!

    The one issue with what TNA did is making this a yearly event. I don't like the idea of having this concept happen once a year at a certain PPV, instead it should be a rule that once a champion hold a title for x number of day or a certain number of title defenses that he is eligible to then trade his title in. I think the number could be set low enough that it could happen a few times a year, but you still need to be champion for a while, say 100 days or 10 successful title defenses.

    Its essentially a MitB briefcase that is defended yearly its a pretty cool concept. I will admit i thought originally that it would devalue the X Division Championship i hope i am wrong.

    Basically^^^^

    But can you imagine how much more interesting the IC and USA titles would be if once a year whoever holds those belts has to drop them and get a WHC or WWE title shot at a ppv and that same ppv they crown new IC and USA champs? I think it would make those belts and the midcard, so much more interesting.

    I know, but living in Fantasy-Land makes me feel better some times. Reality-Land bites.

    I am thinking and hoping that at the next Destination X who ever is holding the X Title chooses to keep it, and not take the world title shot. I think this in itself will add to the title. Whoever has the title has to say that he believes the two titles are on the same level and there is no need to give up his title to go for something that is on par.

    I guarantee what's going to happen more often than not is you will see a lot of former x-division champions from years past begin to start going after and winning the x-division title again, especially in the months leading to each destination x ppv. If they are going to give a guy the main event at Destination x, then it's going to be someone they can at least be halfway behind as a potential world champion. In the coming years, don't expect to see guys like jesse sorrenson, sonjay dutt, or zema ion in the main event. I would expect guys like Samoa Joe, Brutus Magnus, AJ Styles, Chris Daniels, Kaz, etc... to be the x-division champion when DX comes around. Don't expect guys to cash it in every year either. They will have the opportunity to cash it in for a world title shot, that doesn't mean they will. I would actually expect them to book someone like Zema Ion to turn it down, based on being X-division champ has more guarantee than walking out with nothing because you couldn't win the world title. just my thoughts

    Nah, WWE wouldn't dare copy a concept from TNA, they never took concepts from ECW or WCW, wait...err....nvm

Of course the whole idea would have fallen flat if they didn't let AA win the world title and show it can be done. Combined with the BFG series it gives us more to chew over and enjoy than just whatever feud is going on.

    As for the comment on TNA being more interesting at the moment, I agree too. WWE only has the AJ/Bryan/Punk saga keeping me interested at the moment but TNA are pushing most of the right buttons to make me tune in.
    The bolded- I totally agree with. I can kick myself for forgeting that the PPV was on last night as I really wanted to see it. TNA is, overall putting on better matches and Aries- even if he would have lost against Roode, would still put butts in the seats. The guy is/and has always been a great talent. How TNA let him slip away years ago, idk and ROH getting rid of him too- a mistake. I'm glad this TNA run is going great for him and really glad he won the title(even though I'm a Roode fan too)

    Even worst what was WWE thinking when A Double tried out for the last Tough Enough and WWE turned him down
