9 Ups & 4 Downs From This Week's Impact Wrestling (Aug 16)

2. Full Of Himself

In his few weeks as X Division Champion, Jake Crist has been one of the most entertaining members of the Impact roster. Dubbing himself 'The Golden Draw', the oVe member has been overly full of himself, which was evidenced quite clearly when he assumed six of the X division's finest would be wanting a shot at him.

The six men in question were the men involved in the six man tag team match from earlier on in the night - Rob Van Dam, Willie Mack, Rich Swann, Dez, Trey, and Wentz. While it's likely that they would have their eyes on the championship (if not, what are they in the X division for?), there wasn't really a need for this. It didn't do anything to set up a future match between any of the guys.

Jake can be as cocky as he wants with the championship around his waist because he shows he can back it up in the ring. We saw it last week when he faced Aiden Prince for the title, so just keep having him wrestle as opposed to being in these tedious backstage skits.
