Did the TNA Legend's title change to the Global Title?
Also where does it fit in? Is it suppose to be the same league as the TNA title? How many titles do they need?

yes , the legends title was such a stupid concept for a title

think of the global title as the TNA version of the intercontinental title, anyway 3 singles titles is pretty good also considering one of those 3 is a 'cruiser weight' type title

The X Division isn't a cruiser weight title, Fat Joe and Angle have held it and there is no weight restrictions.

Agreed. I think why it is even considered a "cruiserweight" title is the b/c the X Division is a style based on a fast-paced, daredevil type of wrestling usually found in lightweights. Aside from Fat Joe and Angle, the champions list is primarily "cruiserweights"

The X Division Championship has always confused me.

I'm sure at one point it had a weight restriction on it like the Light Heavyweight & Cruiserweight Championships did, but then like BDC said, Samoa Joe (Who's way over the weight restriction) won the title and suddenly everyone was saying that theres no restrictions or something but apparently, the weight restriction still stands?

TNA confuses me.

The only reason the X-Div is "cruiser weight" is because the TNA undercard is primarily "cruiser weight."

Intercontinental was meant to represent a champion of the North American and South American continents, so no not really.

When you think of it Intercontinental and Global are just as close to World. Intercontinental means between the continents, which essentially means it can be between all the continents. Now the United States championship or Intracontinental Championship would be different, they would deliniate a specific area where as Intercontinental, Global, or World Championship do not.

Eric Young claimed in the Global title to say that he's not going to defend the title on American soil or to any Americans. Which is a gimmick that could work if TNA put on shows out of America more than once a year.

This is just a stupid nit picky thing people pick to take a dig at TNA. Their is plenty of things wrong with TNA why nit pick this useless bit? Either way this is the dumbest thing to get upset about since the 25th Anniversary of Wrestlemania debate. Sure, you're technically correct but who cares?

PS.
The X-Division has always from it's very start been "not about weight limits it's about no limits." Which has always been muddled in my opinion, but that why Samoa Joe held the title, and Kurt Angle held the title because of a match where he won all the titles.

the IC title came about when the North and South American Titles were unified. So it has no nering on all continents, just more than one.

The Intercontinental title was a huge misnomer, as it was intended to be the equivalent of a North American championship. The correct word should have been "intracontinental".

That having been said, from what I've heard, the Global title is only to be defended outside the U.S. Not really sure, that's just what I've read.

From a kayfabe point of view, each singles title should be as important as the other. Apart from the name, what benefits does a 'World' champion get over a 'Inter continental' champion? Obviously we know one is held in higher regard than the other but why? It's never sort of put across in kayfabe terms that a World Champion receives more money or anything. I'm know I'm looking into it way more than necessary but I think it's worth mentioning.

TNA's titles always seem to work on the basis than anybody could win any title at any time.

The Mackem: The IC title was intended to be the equivalent of a North American title, as I just stated above. Hence, the IC champion is technically the "champion of North America", while the World/WWE champ is the "champion of the word". Not that that distinction matters much in real-world matters, but it's wrestling.
