Should TNA push Eddie Edwards as a single competitor while Richards is out?

Since signing with TNA it seems like the wolves can never catch a break with the injuries. It was looking like the current direction in TNA was building a Wolves vs Beer Money match. But at the recent UK Tapings Davey Richards suffered a injury and will be out for some time. Which honestly might be good. I was afraid TNA was going to rush the Beer Money vs Wolves feud. Now with the wolves out it gives time for tag teams like the Decay and others to make a name for themselves. It also gives fans a match down the road between the wolves and beer money the fans can look forward too.

Now the question is with Davey Richards out. What is there for Eddie Edwards? I think it would be a great opportunity to put the KOTM title On Eddie Edwards. He's a young up and coming talent. Why not give him a shot. With Eli Drake sitting on a KOTM #1 contender shot. It gives Edwards someone to feud with. They already have something going right now seeing both are in tag teams at the current moment. Have Edwards feud with Drake. Let the younger guys like the "Miracle" Mike Bennett, Eli Drake, Eddie Edwards, Drew Galloway, Robbie E, Etc... Make something out of this KOTM title. Focus on the up and coming guys. Keep the Veterans like Anderson, Roode, Eric Young away from this division for awhile. See if these younger guys have what it takes to make this division great. It will be a stepping stone to see if they have what it takes to lead this company one day. I think right now Eddie Edwards would be a great Babyface to start off with feuding with Drake and Mike Bennett if you put the title on him.

Eddie can be this years option C.

It's time for option C to win title again and Eddie can beat Matt, wont hurt anyone. He can lose the title shortly after to Matt himself or to Lashley, EC3, Drew.

God i hate option c, except for Austin Ares it does more harm then good by devalueing the x-division belt and normaly hotshot a wrestler to champ before they lose it the next month makeing the whole thing pointless (looking at you Mr Sabin...).

Build up Eddie in the KOTM division or if they do put him in xdivison have him keep the belt saying he values it and whats to put it back on the map. Give him a long reign then when Davey back reform the wolves, or delay that by haveing Davey screw him out of the belt....

Edwards vs Young for the KOTM title could be a good feud.

They could also have him go after the x title,

Yea hope they do. Edwards has always been the talented one of the duo. If he works with the right guys, he's got the potential to main-event.

Yea he great in ring, but man he doesn't seem that good at promos which idealy your World champ should have. And both drew and ec3 are babyface now so if was gona feud with eddie someone gona have to turn heel (Drew would be my pick if so...)

I think alot of time in wrestling it comes down to luck on if you get a push, in that eddie finds himself going solo just when the main event scene seems to be crowded. You've got ec3 out for revenge, Bennet against Gallowy, whatever Lashley gona be doing and jeff to return so where would eddie fit in? Im not saying he couldn't but most fans will know him as tag team wrestler only, I didn't know he was RoH champ, so build him up in the KOTM devision, maybe picking up wins against ey, bram, anderson etc before giveing him a shot at the World champ

they should but they won't. tna see richards and edwards as curtain jerking tag guys nothing more

richards should be pushed as a singles guy too..richards was roh champion for a year almost, longer than seth rollins who wwe fans see as one of the future building blocks (and non wwe fans think is buried despite leaving mania 31 as wwe champion and holding that belt for 7 months). lets not forget cesaro NEVER won the roh title!!!!

putting edwards or richards in x-division is a joke in 2016 and they would be better off wrestling singles matches on xplosion..which is where they always end up as singles competitors anyway
