Give the match to Bobby Lashley since he beat EY's ass clean twice or make it a triple threat with Bobby vs Joe vs EY. The only acceptable outcome is EY losing the title and end this failed experiment. Preferably with Joe coming out as champion. I too want the title off EY but if the alternative is Lashley then seriously just keep the title on EY for eternity. Lashley f***ing sucks. I would love to see Roode win the title. And him in the title match would be the logical thing given his prior title history, history with EY and the fact that he's not on the card. But his feud with MVP seems to be a way to turn him face so why would they put him in the match?

Watch it be Joe and he wins the title and turns heel for some reason, perhaps by Harley Race coming down to ringside and telling him "Now is the time".

The winners of Joe/Lashley and King/Aries will advance to the steel cage match to face EY.

So, Lashley beats Joe, and Aries beats King, setting up Young/Aries/Lashley in the main event? Or do they "stack the deck" against E-Bry and go Young/Lashey/King? I'd prefer if Joe just wins the damn title like he should have at Lockdown, but I can't see them booking Lashley to lose.
Either way, I agree, get the title off EY. Any of the other four options would be better. Even Kenny King.

Just me, I'd go King over Aries thanks to Lashley to start the show, hour 2 I'd go Joe over Lashley thanks to some sort of miscommunication between King and Lashley and then Joe pins King to win the title in the main. Now for the casino and NYC tapings you have Joe/EY, Joe/Lashley, Joe/Aries, Joe/Muta, Joe/X Division Champ (if not Aries) and then Joe/MVP (if he is healthy).

He's one of the best overall athletes they have and he's immensely talented. I feel he could be one of the best champions they could have when it comes to building legitimacy around the title.

Persoanlly, I think It's at least partially due to him somehow having negative presence despite physically looking like a monster.... and he tends to makes doofy faces that come of as comical instead of threatening, and then of course there's his voice...

I think Lashley can be okay in the ring, he just needs someone to lead him every step of the way (see his stuff with Cena) and TNA has no one that can do that. Throw in him not being able to cut a promo to save his life and looking like an overgrown child and you have someone that I have no desire to see on top.

There's no denying he does. So does Brock Lesnar. You know what you do for people like that? you give them a manager that can do the talking for them which is one thing MVP is amazing at. Lashley being the World Champion with MVP as his manager sounds perfect to me. I don't get where you're coming from when you say he sucks in the ring though? The guy can go with the best of them and he often has. He hasn't had much of a chance to show it since he came back to TNA but his match with King was pretty damn cool and that catching suplex was absolutely amazing. There's no one else on national TV today that can do something like that. He should be their Brock Lesnar. Period.

Brock even when he's standing there looks like he's thinking of seven different ways of murdering you. Lashley... doesn't.

I guess I see a presence that others don't and that's okay!

I've never been the biggest Brock fan (I like him, but don't love him) but I'd say he's light years ahead of Lashley. Lesnar may not have mic skills but he does have natural charisma, something Lashley does not. And yeah Lashley can impress on occasion with his power but he just doesn't do it for me in the ring. I've seen Lesnar have multiple great matches. I've never seen a great Lashley match.

I think Lashley should make you all EAT ALL THOSE CHEESEBURGERS!
Man, his career peaked early with that skit.

I wouldn't mind that scenario, as Joe should get another title run, but Russo hates him and I think they are going all in with Lashley. It will be interesting to see what they do. The only guy who would be a reach to win the title is King, as he's not presented as a main eventer, but then again, that's where the SWERVE can come in. At least it's unpredictable, if nothing else.

As far as Lashley, I think the issue with him is there is really only two ways to book him. As a heel, he has to be booked like Lesnar, and as a face he has to be booked like Cena. There can't be an in between with him. It is sort of the same issue that Matt Morgan had. Someone with Lashley's size/look can't be jobbing too often, and he is not great at anything in particular to make it in a mid-card role. He is a guy you have to go all-in with.
