I think this could be really good.
The comments made about Sabin going back to the mid-card a month later come from a train of thought based on past examples. Booker T got his World Title shot at WrestleMania, but went back to mid-card hell afterward. Same goes for guys like Benoit, RVD, Kane, etc, etc, etc. Then you've got WCW where after Mysterio beat Nash on Nitro, he was then defeated by Nash on PPV and his push went nowhere (there's a whole story behind that match/feud).
But this is TNA, where Scott D'Amore is the booker. Not Bischoff, not Nash himself, not Vince Mcmahon. D'Amore wouldn't even do this angle if it didn't lead to a younger star getting put over the older star.
The only thing I worry about is Nash. He's proven to be very difficult to work with in the past, not to mention injury prone as fuck. He probably will duck out before the culmination of the storyline, but it would be really huge for Sabin and the X-Division if he doesn't.
It's too bad entire storylines about TNA get leaked like this. You hardly see anything this indepth from WWE.
