do you agree AJ should have won at Slamaversery ? Did anyone else think it just felt "right" ? and last how would you book AJ to now go onto the World Title if you agreed.
I would have Joe turn on MEM with Taz and win the Title from Kurt in the next couple of PPVs, from there have AJ and Joe fued and have AJ get his revenege in some type of wild stipulation match, somthing brutal which has AJ come out as champ at BFG.
To the first two questions, no. TNA is still trying to attract fans so it can grow, and AJ as champion wouldn't do that because nobody outside of TNA knows who he is (or at least not nearly enough to have a big effect on viewership). TNA is making Slammiversary one of their big 4 PPVs, so they're going to have big name draws in the Main Event, while showcasing their younger talent (AJ/Joe), however, to increase viewership, they have the big name draws win. If someone who never watched TNA sees some kid from Georgia beat the legendary Mick Foley and Kurt Angle, they'll just laugh and probably never watch again.
Another thing is the title is just a prop. There's no true competition for it, and whoever is champion (even in WWE), is who can attract the most fans at a given time (John Cena, Edge, Orton, HHH, Jeff Hardy...all lead in merchandise sales). Before TNA got national viewership, Styles was a 3-time champion. Once it got big, and TNA had the opportunity to grow, guys like Sting and Angle were brought in to add prestige to the company and title. Down the line, when AJ or Joe win the title again, it'll mean more because guys like Sting, Foley, and Angle all had it, rather than just Jerry Lynn and Jeff Jarrett (him owning the company doesn't help legitimize the title).
Bound for Glory, their equivalent to WM, is in October, so the storylines for that seem to already be in the work. But, just like in WWE, the Main Event is going to be with guys that can sell to the fanbase outside of what TNA already has. More people are going to pay for Angle (c) vs Sting vs Jarrett vs Foley than they are for Angle (c) vs Joe vs AJ vs Daniels. AJ is also the Legends champion, which although no one seems to care about here, the company probably (hopefully) for that. With Booker/Steiner seemingly forming this tag team, AJ is going to need to feud with someone, and the only "legend" left is Sting (Angle/Jarrett/Foley are all mixed together, and Nash vs AJ wouldn't be very good matches). A win for AJ Styles against Sting at BFG would be good for his career, but having Sting beat him in a tough match (like Matt Morgan) would also be good for his career, as he can then reclaim the Legends title from Sting later on. Or have a showcase of two future stars with AJ vs Matt Morgan. It doesn't have the draw appeal, but it would be a great clash of styles that we'll probably see a lot of down the road.
In all honesty, I see Joe becoming world champ before AJ does, and if either of them have a storyline where they could be in the title picture by BFG, it's Joe eventually turning on the MEM. Right now AJ doesn't have anything, and hopefully that changes, but Joe has so much going on that he seems to be the immediate focus in regards to which future stars comes first.
BFG 2005 - Jarrett vs Kevin Nash
BFG 2006 - Jarrett vs Sting w/ Angle as Enforcer
BFG 2007 - Kurt Angle vs Sting
BFG 2008 - Samoa Joe vs Sting (with Sting taking the title from Joe)
So one, it seems like it'll be a 1 on 1 match, if history shows anything. The 2008 PPV also had Angle vs Jarrett w/ Foley, Booker vs Christian vs AJ, a fatal 4-way monster ball tag team title match, and the Steel Asylum. There was still big name appeal all over the card plus gimmicks. If it had to be 1 on 1, I would go with Angle vs Joe in something like a no dq submission, with Joe losing by unconsciousness, rather than tapping out (then winning at Genesis), like Stone Cold's loss to Bret. This can leave possible Jarrett vs Foley, and Sting vs AJ
EDIT: I would love to see the Fatal 4-Way, which would no doubt help AJ and Joe, but based on the first four BFGs, they seem to be trying for a 1 on 1 match. And even in the 4-Way, I still see either Angle or Sting walking away. Sting is toward the end of his career, and if he wins, only to be hunted down by Joe, Joe ending Sting's career would be a huge push for heel Joe.
