Quote:3) We absolutely need to re-focus on title matches and finding contenders, and NEW contenders. The GMs really need to take the lead on this. I basically told Arch to book the Trios title match regardless of whether the champs were up for it or not. It'd been like 5 months without so much as one defense, just book it. When did title defenses become negotiable? I realize while saying this, I was in a position where I was trying to play out a story vs Griffin which resulted in very few defenses and even my own 'turning away' requests for matches, BUT, saying that, had a GM booked a tag title match, I would not have been offended or pissed off. As a title holder, you're expected to defend regularly.

I just got done talking to one of the GMs about this. It really isn't that difficult of a thing to enforce as long as you're giving your champion a week long rest between each title defense. An example of how I'd book champions:

Show 1:
ME: Wyatt vs Swagmire for the Euro Title
Diaz & Bute vs Nova & Scorpio for #1 contendership @ tag titles

Show 2:
ME: #1 contenders vs Griffin & friend for Tag Titles
Angel vs Samuels vs Mandii for #1 contendership @ Euro Title

And so on...

When it comes to championships, fuck the title holder's schedule. Be generous enough to give them a week off after a defense, but other than that, it should be game on.
