If TNA is up to what i think/hope. Booker returns to King at KOTM and feuds with Joe, who gets sidetracked with Nash. Meanwhile..AJ fights off Booker's court...3d, tomko. Eventually, Aj vs Booker with AJ winning. Makes sense but...more than likely we 'll see Nash win the title, the Joe, then Kurt, then Nash, then tneay, then Bubba ray, then when no one cares...AJ  |

Dear god, if TNA uses the King Booker gimmick and puts the strap on him after Joe has only held it for 2 months after everyone bitched about how he needed to be champion... I honestly might stop watching TNA.
I mean, i'd watch it if it was on and nothing else was... but definitely wouldn't go out of my way to do so.

Joe's reign hasn't drawn worth a damn though. I say go ahead and take it off him but don't put it on Booker.

If this was 2 years ago, I would have said Joe deserves it for a longer amount of time, but so far, Joe has been a verry bland champion, it's too late. Booker is a horrible heel imo. I'd be all for another Rhino type title reign for Booker T, and the person taking it from him being Styles.

I hope Joe stays as champ for a while, yeah you could argue he hasn't drawn that well but having angle on top hardly boosted the ratings.
Plus when Angle had the strap, he, Karen & the Alliance were all over the TV, Joe meanwhile is reduced to a few bit parts mainly with Nash. His first PPV was with Scott Steiner who went from doing nothing to title contender & Kaz, hardly the stuff of a legendary build up is it?
Surely the setup is for AJ vs. Tomko & then once fully recovered Angle with Booker vs. Joe at the moment?

TNA better not screw up another AJ title run. AJ needs this belt soon before people stop caring like what happened with Joe.

I wouldn't mind seeing Booker win the TNA Title, but I don't particularly want him to take on the King gimmick again. Although I loved the gimmick, I think it had run its course by the time he dropped it going into TNA.

Joe retains at Slammiversary. Goes into feud with Booker. AJ and Kurt will goto a double DQ. Next PPV sees Joe beat Booker, while AJ beats Kurt and earns a title match. Next PPV sees Kurt cost AJ the title.......Joe goes into his program with Nash and Kurt/AJ continue theirs. In maybe 6 months, Joe vs. AJ again.

Booker T has no business winning the world title. He doesn't have the legendary status of Sting. He doesn't have the skill, athletic ability, and charisma of Kurt Angle or Christian Cage. The only thing a Booker T reign would do for TNA is make it look more like WWE's waste bin.

Please, no King Booker. Hopefully they won't be too late with AJ like they were with Joe.

I honestly might stop watching TNA. I mean, i'd watch it if it was on and nothing else was... but definitely wouldn't go out of my way to do so. - Triple S If I may continue to beat the dead horse, TNA waited so long to put the world title on Joe, it doesn't matter what they do with his reign anymore. They cheapened his victory even more with that stupid "if I don't win, I'll retire" ****. I don't understand what they were thinking (even more than usual) they but the belt on him two years after they should have, and he was basically a jobber for those two years, and then they told everyone that Joe was going to win at the PPV well before it aired live. It's like I keep saying, the problems in TNA will never get fixed people the nutty bastards running TNA refuse to believe there is a problem. EDIT: I almost forgot..... yes to another AJ Styles world title reign, no to the return of King Booker, but yes to a Booker T world title reign. |

In response to all of the "Joe's reign took too long", thats not an excuse. You wanna tell me that if Jeff Hardy gets the title a year or 2 from now, after being pushed for a year or 2, the crowd isn't going to be as hot as they are now? No. They'd react with the "Finally! About time, awesome." comments. Because WWE knows how to build great fueds, characters, champions, etc. TNA doesn't seem like they can do those things. They just take what WCW/WWE created and use that.
It's TNA's poor job at putting the guy over in a way to get him to be a "great champion". He's ok on the mic and great in the ring. But when his title matches so far consist of: Samoa Joe vs. Scott Steiner vs. Kaz and a terrible gimmick match, with some bland opponents... he's not going to draw.
TNA needs a better product instead of blaming their ratings on their champion. You think WWE gets bad ratings and decides "Well, Triple H isn't drawing as champ, lets put it on Orton again."? Not really, unless they have something bigger planned. TNA needs to give Joe some worthy opponents instead of having him face WCW/WWE rejects.
THIS IS WHY TNA SHOULD BRING DANIELS BACK. People would CARE about Daniels vs. Joe, or Styles vs. Joe... not Booker T vs. Joe, or Kevin Nash vs. Joe. You can't blame this on Samoa Joe, he can only work with what TNA gives him. Which is 5-10 minutes on camera on a 2 hour show each week.

Daniels in the world title main event? Pass. Any reason why? Because he's one of the better wrestlers that have come out of the independant scene in recent history? Or because Daniels vs. Joe vs. Styles is STILL the best fued TNA has had yet?... take your pick. No really, i'm just curious to know why you wouldn't want that. No sarcasm really meant, I am curious to see why your against it. - Triple S |

Daniels would make an incredible main event heel... too bad he wasn't popular in the late 90's.

I just don't think he could carry the show. I'm not saying he shouldn't be in the main event but not as champion if that makes sense. He would make a hell of a heel and a great main eventer but as far as being world champion I just don't think so. My two cents.
