The BFG series really needs to either completely go or be seriously overhauled. I would be just fine with 4-6 wrestlers being in the BFG series. 12 is just way too damn many people to be tied up for all of that time. I mean, really...did even the markiest of marks out there think that Jay Bradley or Hernandez had any shot at winning the thing? I think 12 is a perfectly fine number if they just shorten it up. Look at what NJPW did last month with the G1 Climax - a 20 man round robin tournament and it only took 9 shows. A 12 man round robin can easily be done in 6 shows, 5 shows if they want to rush it.

They've said before that a James Bond film, and Bond himself, is only as good as his villain. The same applies in reverse, of course. Bully's simply not had the opponent to match up to him, the best one was Anderson and that was a one-and-done deal it seems. I think the Sabin title win was genuinely planned it to be a good run, that it would be popular with the smart fans to go for someone like him and also to reflect a similar Punk/Bryan viewpoint, but then typically then just lost interest again and went back to Bully. TNA didn't lose interest in Sabin's run as much as the vast majority of wrestling fans called BS on it, which is to be expected with the way that the booking went in that one.

Sabin was going to be a transitional champion. You could tell how he was booked that was the idea. If TNA was serious about giving Sabin a decent title run, he would had been booked as an equal to Bully Ray in both of his matches against him. Him beating Ray was meant as a swerve not an elevation.
