So guys tell me what you think of these booking ideas in TNA right now, and if they would make better sense than what we get at the moment.
1) Kurt Angle gets the title of Mick Foley and feuds with Daniels for it. It wrights its self. Angle could talk about how hes an olypian, world champion, and the greatest in the world while Daniels is a nobody, was fired, never won a world title, and has had a forgetable career. Daniels says that he risked his TNA contract once and lost, and swoar never to do it again, but he's changed, and he is willing to risk everything to realise his dream. Drag it out, with the contract stip on the blow off, and put Daniels over. That was the plan for the MEM storyline all along right?
2) EY- Please note this is not my idea, it belongs to a man named Trey Dogg. Have EY dye his hair black and become Mick Foleys right hand man. Foley can still feud with Jarret, but have EY do the wrestling and Foley the mouth piece behind him. This solidifies EYs heel turn and gives him a major rub against JJ, while continuing an already in place storyline, but now with potentialy good wrestling.
3) Start cutting stables down, and only have a couple because we know how TNA love groups. Now think about the MCMG. Pretty D Generate right? Kips not doing anything is he? You've got the new 'Extreem Faction' going with Richards, Raven, and Dafney. Once that thing with Abyss is done then what? Well why not make Kip a leader of a new D Generate Stable, of younger arrogent guys. MCMG would fill that role perfectly, and it doesnt even need to be a stable feud, just an extention of their tag team character.

An Angle/Daniels fued is something I would personally love, but I would make it for the X-Division Title. I'm actually watching Sacrifice as I write this, and I have no clue who won the Title in the main event, but I'm guessing from the wording that Foley retained (which was what I expected). Having Angle chase the X-Division Title instead of the World Heavyweight gives the MEM a little more direction. Have Booker take the helm and chase the World Title, and have Sting (if he didn't lose at Sacrifice) chasing AJ for the Legends belt. Angle vs. Daniels would throw up some brilliant matches, but elevating Daniels to World Title level does very little to help create new main eventers considering his age. This fued however would help elevate Daniels status, while keeping him out of the main event, as well as the X-Division, which desperately needs to be taken seriously booking-wise again.
The Foley/Jarrett fued would certainly benefit from EY taking Foley's place, but I'm not even sure I like the idea of having such an over face, turning heel for really no reason. Done correctly however it could work, and having him face off with his former mentor in Jarrett would bring a lot of emotion into it.
Your third idea, I'm not even sure I understand... It seems like you're saying minimise the number of factions within TNA and then just deciding to create a brand new one. Although I'm not against the idea of giving the Guns a more experianced mouthpiece, re-creating D-X however is not going to help them. What MMG need is a real direction. They continually flip-flop between face and heel, and are continually over with the crowds. make them face and let them loose. Give them the TNA Tag Titles and possibly a manager (Cornette, Foley, even Kip) and just push them to the moon.
By the third I mean decrease unneccesay factions to bring in the new one. I dont mean re create DX, but a similar smart ass, do what we want character for the Guns would work I think. It would just be an extension of their current character.

What, to put over somebody who isn't much younger than the members of the MEM?

Since you're watching Sacrifice and didnt know who won i assume you didnt see the following iMPACT! Young made his heel turn on that show.

Christopher Daniels in a world title program is pretty laughable.
As is eric young as a main eventer.
How long is this beer money/team 3D thing gonna go for. Its been said many-a-times by others, storm and roode should be main eventing. Team 3D can go back to Japan and MCMG should be given the straps to feud with the UK faction, Lethal Consequences, No Limit and other teams I cant think of right now.

Sounds like perfect TNA logic to me.

I've not finished Sacrifice yet (just up to the X-Division Title match) but I could see that EY was not happy, for what seemed to me to be no reason other than he didn't get the pin. Whiney little bitch... Anyway, still don't feel that a heel turn is the best thing for him, considering how over he is, but I guess TNA will do what they like until they are buried under the weight of their own retardness.

That's not really a good idea. First off, if the aim is to increase ratings you've gotta imagine more casual non TNA fans would tune in. To the casual fanbase Danielson=Generic Looking Skinny Guy, Angle=Former WWE Champion. If a former WWE Champion calls some guy these casual fans have never seen before a jobber, they will believe it. Next if they continue to tune in and Daniels defeats Angle, it looks like Angle just lost to a jobber who is a nobody and has had a forgettable career.
Second, putting Daniels over doesn't accomplish much. Daniels is in the same age range as Kurt Angle. Meaning he isn't younger talent, he is just an older guy who only began to achieve "national" recognition when he came to TNA. I say national lightly as TNA really doesn't have that much of a reach.
If they want to put over younger guys to be stars in the company for the next 5-10 years Daniels is the wrong pick. He is older, and having Kurt Angle call him a nobody and a jobber won't help get him over.
