Sting disappearring off TV tells me that when he returns it will be to assist the Frontline in vanquishing the MEM. It's one of the things that has bothered me most about the angle. Sting never truely committed to it and was never a real heel. It made things confusing and unecessary, and I think if he had been a proper heel character the storyline would be in a better position right now. He's seemingly had himself removed from it, in order to return the hero... And once again, not put over the younger, more talented guys.

Foley's reign needs to be short. I'm fine with him holding it, because he can still (kind of) go in the ring, and he seems to have lost weight since coming in to TNA. If he holds it anywhere near the lengths Joe, Angle, and Sting did TNA are in real trouble. Mick just can't do that at this stage in his career. Dropping it to Angle in a couple of months, who can then drop it to AJ seems the best plan in my eyes. Although personal, were I booking, Mick would never have got a sniff of the title. He's one of my all time favourites, but he is way past World Title material.

Jarrett's current role as "management" on TV is working well I feel, but it's unlikely to last as more and more he gets in the ring of late. To leave Foley in charge however would be a mistake. If Foley is gonna be champion, strip him of his authority. Make Jarrett a full time worker again and have Cornette as the only authority figure... Otherwise it's just confusing.

Lashley debut meant zilch to me. He was shit in WWE and if TNA give him the same (or a similar role) he'll be shit there to. He should be neither Frontline nor MEM in all honesty. In a locker room full of tweeners, me saying that's the direction Lashley should go seems ridiculous, but honestly that's his best route. Establishing himself as a loner and running through everyone he can, a la Goldberg, regardless of their politics or position would make him a real contender... And please God, give him a manager. He can't talk for shit.

I haven't even watched Impact yet, but I felt the need to comment... As usual.
