So at an NWA Texoma event the Godzilla Jax Dane lost to Tim Storm making Tim Storm the new World Heavyweight Champ.
Now, I have not bee the biggest fan of Jax Dane. And I like Tim Storm. However, here is the problem I am having. Tim Storm has lost to Jax Dane so many times. So, so many. Including the last couple of major events. The last two Cauliflower Club Main Events in Las Vegas have been Jax Dane defeating Tim Storm. Once to unify the Nation and North American Title and once for the World Title. I know there was at least one other match up where Storm lost head to head with Dane. Now this could have been good if it had been a unified story. As if there was some reason Storm continued to deserve title shots, or the wins were less than clean, but they were. So, I struggle with this title change a bit.
There seem to more deserving people out there than Storm such as Badd Blood or Greg Anthony or Matt Rivera. Or even a Jason Kincaid or Chase Owens if you wanted to go a real different direction.
But Jax Dane is appearing in an ROH event coming soon, and that may have prompted the dropping of the title. And Tim Storm keeps the main place of business with the title as Texas. Dane appeared pretty regularly in Smoky Mtn as well, but Storm has never been there. Storm has appeared at Mid South a few times, so maybe they get to see the World title a bit.
I would think that Storm makes sense to enter into a feud with Raymond Rowe. Current National Champ Jake Logan ought to get to be in the ring with the Storm too. Storm could also bring it back to Louisiana to take on Vordel Walker.
Either way this is a big turning point. Tim Storm's win seems out of no where, and it will be interesting to see how long it lasts and where Storm takes the title from here.
Current Champs:
World - Tim Storm
World Junior - John Saxon
Women's - Jazz
