It's not like they have a lot of options. They are an upstart organization.

IMO, what they should do is sign another solid LHW and have a 4 man tournament between Babalu, Tito, Lil Nog and whoever, their other LHW is over the course of 2-3 events and then name one of them the champ.

You also have to remember, Anderson Silva was MW champ after only beating Leben to get his shot at Franklin and Fedor only beat Sylvia in Affliction to get his HW championship from Wamma. It's not like it's highly unusual.

They're just looking for some solid talent with a big name and a former champion to build the organization. No Tito, shouldn't just be named champion if he beat Babalu, they should all have to earn it.
