The next set of matches are more interesting. If Griffin beats Rua but Rampage fails against Hamill then she should get a title shot. Of course if Rampage wins but Griffin dosen't then again he's next in line. With that said in regards to the last part however, if Rua wins and Rampage win, I would also love to see a match between them for the #1 contender spot instead of pushing Rampage ahead.

If Rashad wins, he'll fight for the belt, no question. But if Davis beats him I don't think he'll get the shot, unless he wins in spectacular fashion. He's got an opportunity here, but it's still a long shot.
If Rampage wins he's next in line, no question. If Hamill wins there is certainly a marketing angle in that he is the only one to technically *beat* Jones (cough cough), but I think they'd make him win one more fight.
Regardless of who wins Griffin-Rua II, the winner should fight Machida. If it's Rua, it would be a rubber match. If it's Griffin...terrible stylistic match-up...he's one of my favorites, but I wouldn't give him a prayer against Machida. The winner of that fight should step to the front of the line.

So, to sum up:
1)Rashad wins, he gets title shot
If 1) is false;
2) Rampage wins, he gets title shot
If 1) and 2) are false;
3)Winner of Rua-Griffin fights machida, winner of that gets title shot

I can not see the 3) even being an option. That would sideline Jones until next spring and he will be ready late summer/early fall.

I think Rampage should fight Machida again if he beats Hammil and if Forrest wins and Rashad win they should fight again, But I really wanna see Forrest fight for the belt again, at least we know the fight will be exciting to watch, Forrest has a great ground game and IMO if Jones takes him to the ground Forrest could get the sub
