Just realised that the AJ/Daniels can never wrestle again stipulation is going to have to be waved for this seen as they'll need to at least compete once in the series. I am not sure how to feel about this one :/ I seriously hope they'll keep up continuity and do something about it. At least Daniels schould mention it and do everything do avoid a regular wrestling match.

I really hope Aries wins the series and they can mention how he has two wins over Bully Ray.

The fact that they kept referring to Magnus as the next breakout star combined with the fact that he is number 1 in the rankings via a pretty sweet Texas Cloverleaf submission win makes me a very happy man. I swear if the give him the W in the series and then have him go over Ray at Bound For Glory, TNA will have a HUGE star on their hands with Magnus. He really is the future if they don't go all TNA and f*** it up.

He really is the future if they don't go all TNA and f*** it up. I think they will use the BFG Series to make Magnus a main eventer, but not sure they will pull the trigger on him so fast. He would make sense as one of the guys to take the title from Bully, since he has been feuding with Aces and Eights, but it is probably too soon for him to be headlining BFG. I think he will win the title in 2014 though. He is getting over, on the road, so his time will come (hopefully).

Didn't we say all of this about Magnus last year, though?

Didn't we say all of this about Magnus last year, though? This year TNA has gone out of their way to promote Magnus as a breakout star, so I think they have big plans for him. It has been a very organic build too. They didn't have him lose matches and then instantly change it when he turned face. It has been gradual. He was a heel when he lost to Samoa Joe, but he kicked out of the Muscle Buster in their PPV match and after Joe won, he gave him a nod of respect. Then Magnus was attacked by Aces and Eights and came back as a face and has been built slowly from there. You can notice his crowd reactions are growing every week as well. I don't see Magnus winning the BFG Series, but if there is one guy that will be elevated by this tournament, it will be him.

i figure the final 4 will be AJ, Magnus, Anderson (so they can tease the anderson/bully aces and 8s EXPLOSION!!!), and i want to say Aries with aces and 8s costing Jeff a shot "oh hardy's a lock going into his final match- uh-oh it's aces and 8s! what? they just hit hardy's opponent, Hardy loses 10 points for the dq loss and is out of the semis!"
AJ v Anderson (to tie up Anderson made to look bad by AJ refusing to join aces and 8s) AJ wins Magnus vs. Aries- hard fought match Aries manages to win- almost want to say Magnus but 1) just making the semis will be a big boost for him and 2) they want to make sure AJ gets cheered in the finals so better to use a heel for that match, 3) Aries has "hired" aces and 8s in the past to help out, of course they'll be willing to help again to stoip AJ from facing Bully
AJ vs Aries- AJ wins

We've never seen a televised Aries/AJ one-on-one match in TNA and if they give them some time (on maybe a special Impact for the end of the BFG Series?) then it would be an awesome way to end what I'm sure will be an excellent BFG Series.

Updated with the most recent house how results.
As far as the final four I'm thinking Joe, Anderson, Magnus, and AJ. Thus they'll have the MEM guy, Aces & Eights guy, younger guy getting a push and the tweener on his redemption.
Roode, Kaz, Daniels, and Hardy are possibilities, but I have my doubts. Hernandez, Park, and Bradley are non-entities most likely. I'm convinced Aries will probably be replaced by Sabin while the former goes to do Plan C.

Got to figure that Bobby Roode isn't going to take losing his first two matches very well. Something's going to give, there.
