Short title runs *BDCA*

From my understanding, Kurt Angle just beat Sting for the TNA title. That is retarded. It makes Sting look like a fluke. And even though I don't like Sting, he isn't a fluke, he is the Icon, at least that is what TNA calls him, too bad they don't follow through.

Now, here is BDC quick reference guide to when short title reign are acceptable, and how:

If the champion is a legit champion, he either needs to have at least a 2 month title riegn or it needs to be less than 48 hours to be acceptable. Why? Because if he is someone who can be a legitimate champion, the he should have a legitimate run and less than 2 month without special cirumstances is unacceptable.

But what about this 48 hour rule? Well if the champion loses in 48, it can be said he was beat up and not at his best. Prime example, HHH at No Mercy winning from Randy, then fighting Umaga and going against Randy again.

Now if the champion is a fluke champion, then the title riegn should last longer than a week, but no more than 2 months (i.e. 2 ppvs). And very few guys can or are willing to pull this off, the only 2 I can think of are Mikey Whippwreck or Eric Young (if Young was ever a world champion, it should be breif).

Also, wether it was a fluke champion, or a screw job title riegn, there shouldn't be another short title reign for a long time without very good reason. And selling tickets in and of itself is not a good reason.

Discuss.
