PPV Report: Bound For Glory 2013

TNA World Tag Team Title Shot
Gauntlet Match
Chavo Guerrero & Hernandez vs. Bad Influence vs. Eric Young & Joseph Park vs. The BroMans
This was good. I didn't expect TNA to allow Young and Park to get the title shot. Good beginning to the show I thought. BroMans win.

***

TNA X-Division Championship
Ultimate X
Jeff Hardy vs. Austin Aries vs. Chris Sabin vs. Samoa Joe vs. Manik

This must have been the most unexciting Ultimate X match ever. With all the talent in the ring this should have been far better plus it could have been a great open for the actual pay per view. Sabin won after using a ladder to win.

TNA World Tag Team Championship
The BroMans vs. James Storm & Gunner

While people on XWA shit over them I feel The BroMans actually did a good job here. Storm got a nasty cut on his leg. BroMans won the titles.

***

TNA Knockout Championship
Gail Kim vs. Brooke vs. ODB

Kim did some funny bumps but beyond that there was really nothing to this match. Le'D Tapa interfered so that Kim can win the title.

**

Bobby Roode vs. Kurt Angle

It had a real weird start but it became a good match. It would been better but we got a fuck finish with Kurt knocking himself out with his own Angle Slam. You just shouldn't do this on your biggest pay per view of the year.

***

Ethan Carter III vs. Norv Fernum

Highlight of this was Taz's commentary, which is a bad sign. It wasn't even a fun squash match.

DUD

Magnus vs. Sting

This would have been far better if we had a better crowd reaction. No one really expected Sting to tap out. Otherwise Sting actually did a good job here.

**

TNA World Heavyweight Championship
AJ Styles vs. Bully Ray

This was a very underwhelming main event. They just killed the match trying to sell a story. Styles took crazy bumps like doing a 450 from the ring through a table.

**

For the biggest TNA show of the year this was a very underwhelming pay per view. Just a huge disappointment overall. This is not worth paying 40 dollars for when Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling are offering far better for 15.
