Yes finally people are wising up to Sarita for Knockout's Champion. I say make Pope Television Champion since he's got the mic & in-ring skills. Williams probably isn't on TNA's high-priority list like he is to the fans (for whatever reason). Roode does need to win a match cleanly though he has the ability. I think TNA feels that having him resort to cheating makes him more of a heel & gets casual fan's attention more easily.

One thing I would like to see is Aries win the TV title and hold both that and the X division title at the same time. He could then feud with someone like AJ Styles for it. I think that would bring the title back from being a complete joke.
Good idea, I actually had a similar idea about Aries winning the World title along with the X. I think that could send him and TNA to the moon.

@raider you don't think having Austin Aries hold numerous titles will be kind of a visual clusterfuck? I mean it would be ill if he got all the championships & was a grandslam champion but when wrestlers hold or more titles like Kurt & Samoa Joe did it looks funny.

What better way would it be for Roode to really anger the audience?

To beat their favorite star cleanly.

Ric Flair made a career out of it.

It's the next logical step to putting him over the top as not only the best heel in TNA but the best wrestler. If a heel doesn't win cleanly from time to time it makes he/she look like he/she doesn't deserve the title. In this day and age they are no true jobbers so when is there an opportunity for
Roode to prove he is worthy of being a champ?

This idea that the only time a heel should ever win is if he cheats is a falsehood. Another one tried over and over in TNA and yet no ratings spike.

Try something different and see what happens.
Whatcha' going to do?

You think the ratings would spike, just because Roode goes over Hardy cleanly? I personally think it doesn't make much of a difference in the ratings, to be honest.

the dirtsheets would be all over it for one... two the fans would be like holy shit... He just pinned Hardy cleanly.

I don't know what the overall outcome would be however it would be something different. When companies try something different to generate buzz usually more people tune it to see what's going on. Plus it would work perfectly with the Sting feud.

Sting is insinuating the only way Roode can win is if he cheats. Well if he won cleanly then that would disrupt things then wouldn't it.

This was great show! It had a very old school feel to it.Looking forward to this thursday, Wrestling Matters in Tna! Every match has a purpose or storyline! Which makes for very enjoyable matches unlike that other company where Wrestlers are having matches for no rhyme or reason !
