The Ghost of bps21 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 Samoa Joe vs. Jushin Liger Ultimate X: Matt Bentley vs. Chris Sabin vs. Petey Williams 30 minute Iron Man rematch: AJ Styles vs. Christopher Daniels ... Methinks they'll push the X division plenty in the Spike TV era.
Astro101 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 3 matches announced. 3 matches that make me want to buy.
TheFranchise Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 Shame, i'd rather see Joe/Styles one on one for the X Title. Still, you can't really argue with those matches. Good stuff.
Styles Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 Ah, so Bound For Glory is guarenteed to kick ass. Good to know! Feed Jarrett to Monty and they could have the perfect card.
natey2k4 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 Ah, so Bound For Glory is guarenteed to kick ass. Good to know! Feed Jarrett to Monty and they could have the perfect card. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fuck that, feed Jarrett to to Shark Boy and we'd have the perfect card. lol joking.. I'd love to see Austin Aries & Roderick Strong team up to take on Alex Shelley & if a deal is worked out Sean Waltman... if not, make it a Three Way Dance. Add AMW v. Team Canada (Eric Young & Bobby Roode) v. The Naturals in a steel cage.. (our Second Monsters Ball as Predicted) Give us... Hoyt v. Brown v. Raven v. Abyss.. and have Raven win to take on Jarrett (more so for whatever name value is left). Whatever the case, the card looks fantastic so far.
jwpeer Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 I might actually order Bound for Glory JUST to see Joe v. Liger. Does anyone have any ideas whether Joe will actually go over, will it be a DQ finish? etc.
tpww7 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 This'll be the first TNA PPV I've ordered since they moved to the monthly format so they must be doing something right.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 Sounds awesome. Hope Joe/Liger goes clean. BTW, I believe ESPN just launched a weekly show called "Bound For Glory".
Epic Reine Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 What's gonna be hanging above the ring in the Ultimate X? A contract for a future X title shot perhaps?
Guest aural angel dust Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 It's usually a big plastic red X that's hung in non-title situations.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted September 23, 2005 Author Report Posted September 23, 2005 Joe pretty much has to go over since they're banking on his one on one rematch with Styles to carry a future show.
Rendclaw Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 And he should. Joe and Monty are the future of TNA in a lot of ways, in both the short and long term, along with the X Division as a whole.
Corey_Lazarus Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 I still hope that the main event is Raven/Jarrett III with Raven going over this time.
Guest Biggles Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 New match added: Monster's Ball with Rhino vs Sabu vs Jeff Hardy vs Abyss
Dangerous A Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 Tito Ortiz will be working in the main program for Bound for Glory. He'll probably be a ref, cornerman or outside enforcer in the Jarrett-Nash main event, which will be made clear on Tuesday when they do the Spike tapings for the first two shows. Credit: Observer site While the rest of the card is excellent and trumps the NWA Title match, Jarrett-Nash is just beyond lame. I really hope they put that match on last and half or more of the audience walks out so Spike and Co. get a clue that Jarrett and Nash are NOT people who should be on top.
Precious Roy Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 New match added: Monster's Ball with Rhino vs Sabu vs Jeff Hardy vs Abyss <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Guest IttoOgami Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 What exactly is a Monster's Ball match? I never saw the first one. What does it entail? Also, I am hyped to see the Samoan Submission Machine taking on JUSHIN F'N LYGER. That's worth it right there.
Carnival Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 I think it's like a hardcore match. NO DQ, weapons, tables....that sort of thing.
ChrisMWaters Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 New match added: Monster's Ball with Rhino vs Sabu vs Jeff Hardy vs Abyss <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Jeff Hardy being called a monster?
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 First you are locked in a dark room overnight and not allowed out til right before the match. Then you have a garbage brawl. That's what Monster's Ball is basically.
Precious Roy Posted September 24, 2005 Report Posted September 24, 2005 I think it involves Raven dosing everyone with LSD the night before the match...
Hunter's Torn Quad Posted September 25, 2005 Report Posted September 25, 2005 Tito Ortiz will be working in the main program for Bound for Glory.

Guest *KNK* Posted September 25, 2005 Report Posted September 25, 2005 You have to love Kevin Nash leaving when the company went dark and suddenly is back once it gets an national tv spot. You couldn't have a worst omen in the world for your promotion's "new" start then placing wrestling's two biggest box office failures in one collective main event.
Rendclaw Posted September 25, 2005 Report Posted September 25, 2005 BTW DA, when are you going to start the Danger Zone back up?
Hunter's Torn Quad Posted September 25, 2005 Report Posted September 25, 2005 You couldn't have a worst omen in the world for your promotion's "new" start then placing wrestling's two biggest box office failures in one collective main event. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But they have 'star power', so we're stuck with them in the main event, while the guys who do have talent are forced into the background while a guy who refuses to accept he isn't a star and never will be and the worst drawing WWF Champion of all time get to play at being stars in a company that seems doomed to failiure on its current heading.
Dangerous A Posted September 25, 2005 Report Posted September 25, 2005 BTW DA, when are you going to start the Danger Zone back up? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Possibly in the next 24-36 hours.
Styles Posted September 25, 2005 Report Posted September 25, 2005 Eh, they had a suprisingly good match at Against All Odds (ironicaly named show) which is either a good sign because they could do it again or a bad sign because it's likely never to happen again. Not the main event I'd go with but if everything under it is awesome, which it looks like it will be, it will be forgivable.

Not the main event I'd go with but if everything under it is awesome, which it looks like it will be, it will be forgivable. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The problem is that even if they use every gimmick under the sun, which they will have to do to work around the limitations of a match involving both men, it won't come anywhere close to being as good as Liger/Joe, Ultimate X and Styles/Daniels. The last thing TNA need, apart from Jarrett on top, as to have Jarrett and Nash in their first NWA title match on their first post-Spike PPV and have them so obviously upstaged by the guys underneath. What does it make TNA look like if they have two guys on top working a gimmick-laden match that will be **1/2 at best, and underneath them are guys working ****-level affairs? It makes them look like idiots for not putting what even their new found casual fans can see are their most talented workers on top.
