– Bound for Glory will be airing in 113 theaters across the United States on Sunday, October 14th. The pre-show will air live at 7:30pm (EST) prior to the PPV.
– There are a few reasons why Jeff Hardy won this year’s Bound For Glory Series and got the main event spot against Austin Aries at TNA’s biggest show of the year. Aside from the fact that Hardy’s contract is expiring in February and TNA wants to keep him happy, Hardy’s drawing power is considered the main factor.
TNA expects Hardy to drive pay-per-view and movie theater sales for the show – and many more mainstream fans are willing to throw down money for Jeff Hardy (over James Storm, who was also in the running for the main event spot). TNA is also hopeful that merchandise, live event ticket sales and television ratings will go up with the company building a major program around Jeff Hardy.
