New TNA Title
So am I reading this right?

They will crown a New Champion...who doesnt get a belt, but then can challenge any title holder they want, whenever....

So its like a MITB, but a Championship?

Is this right? And What do you think of it?

Can't fault them for trying something else. Of course, they don't have a great track record with execution.

I just dont get the logic.

So if you win it, challenge the champ and lose, do you still have the right? Or does there start a new tournament?

On Monday, TNA began a tournament for a new championship that they are creating. According to WrestleZone.com, TNA has created a new title called the "Xplosion Championship". The premise behind this title is to allow the holder of this new belt to be able to challenge any other champion they want. The tournament began last night with Pope Dinero defeating Suicide.

Should be that you get to challenge the X-Division champion. Winning a tournament meant for guys that aren't over enough to be on the main show shouldn't get you a shot at the WORLD title. This is poppycock. Poppycock, I say.

So let me see if I understand this: It's a tournament for a championship, a physical belt or just a theoretical belt is TBD, where you can challenge one of the other champions for their title. For that matter, if the Xplosion Champion loses, does that mean you lose your championship to them and in turn they can challenge someone else for the title?

Would be less confusing to just hold a #1 contender tournament and winner decides what title they want instead of creating a championship that doesn't result in an actual "champion."

This is going to be even more confusing if this new championship has an actual belt that isn't worth anything title-wise.

Is it an actual belt or just a "title"? Like MITB? If It's a belt then it's retarded. If it's a position to win, then I can understand that, but like everyone else said, what happens if/when they lose? Run another tournament? Doesn't seem totally thought out yet

And what happened to their ranking system? Ditch that already?

I'm assuming the holder of the belt could "talk with management" earlier in the evening or show and say that they want to challenge a certain champion. If they are unsucessful, I would imagine they would have 2 "Top Contenders" face off to see who gets the belt after the original championship failed to win on Impact.....

I actually like the idea, but Russo will clusterfuck it up as always.....

It would be a great idea but they only have two hours of US tv time per week, couple that with The World Title, X Division, Knockouts, Tag, and TV Titles, and we have way too much for the time were given. Eh.... I am currently on an "Impact Wrestling" kick, needing something different than WWE and TNA has been doing okay the past three weeks but I hope this doesn't fuck it up entirely. I could see it being a great idea but it doesn't make sense yet. Plus, TNA doesn't execute great ideas, well, greatly.

Which causes it to make less sense. So US viewers will be treated to seemingly random title shots on Impact and/or PPVs? Yeeeah

TNA's PPV main events get little hype going in as it is, how long until someone decides to "cash in" on the show before a PPV because TNA haven't booked a proper main event yet?

it sounds like its going to be an Interim championship of sorts, it's just a different way of saying number one contender.

No one answered me, are they still doing the rankings? If so, that makes two ways to be a #1 contender. Which means two #1 contenders. If the rankings are gone I'm OK with this, except for the fact it'll be occurring on a show no one in TNA's main market can see

Honestly I would rather them cut some dead weight, bring in some fresh faces, and do a REAL NXT type deal.

Only Rookies with less than one year with the company are on Xplosion. Have its own champ. Build new talent and overseas fanbase with that. Rotate people in and out.

That was dumped just like that with no reasons given storyline wise.

So then they went with the typical "I'm the #1 contender because I say so" route? Then yeah, this is clearly an improvement

Doesn't really need to be a championship. Make it a trophy or some shit, and when someone cashes in, a new tourney is immediately started within two weeks. If it isn't yearly or done in this way, there's no point to it being a championship whatsoever. Just call it a tournament and be done with it.

The concept is fine. Being a title and being on Xplosion which, as pointed out, doesn't air in the US, makes it a bad idea.

I honestly don't get why TNA doesn't put Xplosion on YouTube or their TNA Vault thing for free. Knowing them, the "Xplosion Champion" will randomly appear on TV with no mention of it before and nobody will know what the fuck is going on.

trust me you don't want to see Xplosion
i'm the biggest TNA fan here and even i don't watch it.

you know that backstage camera that they use to make backstage segments look more rustic and realistic?

have you ever wondered "hey what would a wrestling match look like filmed in that style"?

well you see where im going with this

That doesn't take away from the fact that now that the show is going to mean something to the main show, their core audience (Americans) won't be able to see it.
