DreamBroken Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Thought this was a very enjoyable show with good matches top to bottom. Ultimate X was a fun little spotfest opener with the guys doing some crazy stuff like Tigre's 450 to the floor and Everett's springboard 630. Helms appearing was random, wonder if it leads anywhere. Gauntlet for the Gold was super fun, loved it. Fun little surprises with Snow & Dreamer. Tyrus winning was interesting with the setup after vs EC3. Tag title match was good stuff as was Roode/Lashley, both real solid. Gail/Kong was good and stood out as different from the rest. Angle/Young was strange with the match being called off but not really then just continuing randomly. Liked the big fight feel for the main. Thought EC3 might retain somehow but a cool moment for Matt. Hope to see Drew as champ in the future but happy for Matt to get his moment and world title run. Good show IMO. Hope new tapings are announced as I'm looking forward to more after this show. Results: *Tigre Uno def. Andrew Everett, DJ Z, & Manik (8:46) in Ultimate X to retain the X Division Championship. After the match, Gregory Helms came to the ring and shook Tigre's hand. *Tyrus won the Gauntlet for the Gold to become #1 contender (24:44) last eliminating Mr. Anderson. Match also included Jessie Godderz, Robbie E, Al Snow, Tommy Dreamer, Mahabali Shera, Abyss, The Pope D'Angelo Dinero, Aiden O'Shea, & Chris Melendez *The Wolves def. Brian Myers & Trevor Lee (13:59) when Edwards pinned Lee after Davey's superplex in to brainbuster to retain the tag team championships *Bobby Roode def. Lashley (14:18) after the Roode Bomb to retain the King of the Mountain championship *Billy Corgan introduced 2015 TNA Hall of Famer Earl Hebner *Gail Kim def. Awesome Kong (10:09) with a small package to retain the knockouts championship *Kurt Angle def. Eric Young (12:54) via ankle lock submission *Matt Hardy def. Ethan Carter III & Drew Galloway (20:12) after the Twist of Fate on Galloway, to become the new TNA Worlds Heavyweight Champion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Didn't watch the show, just read the results here. I also like Matt Hardy getting his moment and becoming a World Champion (though he may have earlier depending on how you think about the ECW Championship). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGFanJay Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Pretty sad show to watch. They went for a TNA Greatest Hits theme and you kinda got the 65 year old rockers who can kinda play, and some that can't. Kong-Kim was depressing, while the X Title and Tag Title matches at least had some life to them. Everett should get triple pay for taking that stupid bump off the X in this era of TNA. Roode vs. Lashley was technically good, but impossible to care about. EY-Angle was just a clusterfuck. The World title match was an absolute farce too and really didn't help anyone - even if Matt's celebration at the end was good and Big John's backstage bump was hilarious. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2015/10/tna-bound-for-glory-2015.html Screens -http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/5d6928w4sadag6aw76gk253g7wr1v1r1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nofuture Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Give credit to Gail Kim for carrying that match with Kong. What happened to Kong? She looked so deteriorated and slow, the match was pretty much at half speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She looked so deteriorated and slow, the match was pretty much at half speed. I believe she's been working with a back injury for several months now. No idea why she hasn't gotten it fixed.

cool arrow Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I would've thought she was in WWE long enough to get a little money squirreled away. Anyway, if this is truly the last live TNA PPV, then it sounds like it was a fitting end. (Going by the Meltzer and Bryan & Vinny reviews, that is.)

cool arrow Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) And she was under contract the whole time, so her travel expenses were almost nil.

DreamBroken Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 Yet Kong still managed to get in 2 WWE video games in that time too. Forgot about the mentioned John "Big" Gaburick bump at the end, that was indeed hysterical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamal Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I thought Gail/Kong was good given the state that Kong's back is in now. Liked that they went for some new stuff when they could have just as easily coasted. And I have to hand it to Gail. If any woman could just chill out and go on cruise control, it's her, but she continues to go out there and give 100%. It's a shame WWE squandered her as she would have been aces with the Revolution.

BEN! Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Kids, this Halloween, be safe out there. If you're approached by a stranger, even if you've got a dislocated shoulder, get away and tell an adult you trust. BEN!, on 02 Oct 2015 - 6:33 PM, said:I had no idea Matt Hardy was in the main event of BFG. I knew Jeff Hardy was special ref. I just thought it was a one on one match between EC3 and Galloway. Not that I think that's a money match or anything (because TNA) but at least there would probably be a clean finish and Galloway as champ could at least be a pretend fresh start for this dead-ass company. Now I just figure they're going to get too cute and do something stupid like have Matt win by pinning Galloway so they can keep EC3's fake undefeated streak going. I'd say I'm disappointed in TNA but I expect this from them. I get wanting a Hardy to get a big win on the PPV in North Carolina. Should've had him win the battle royal. Then he could've actually earned a title shot instead of just sneaking into another one. EC3's rematch will probably be another 3-way with Tyrus eating the pin so they can keep pretending that EC3 is undefeated for whatever reason. TNA really needs a spark of some kind and putting the WHC on another guy over 40 probably isn't it. I'll give the Carolina clique this, unlike Bully, they've at least gotten a couple of guys some shine that deserve it like Everett and Lee.

DreamBroken Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 I was surprised but they were treating this as the end of EC3's streak despite him not being pinned. Josh said something like "The end of 714!" after. Of course they could just have him keep claiming the streak since he wasn't pinned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Sweetser Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Josh is the worst heel Michael Cole ever. His sucking up to EC3 is even stupider than Cole sucking up to Miz. At least Cole had the decency to actually go full heel when he did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
