TNA Bound For Glory Buyrate?, Bellator/TNA Update

– In what is good news for TNA as Spike isn't moving away from this kind of content, Viacom has purchased a stake in the Bellator Fighting Championships MMA company. As noted yesterday, they will debut on Spike in 2013. You can get more information about the acquisition at Fightline.com by clicking here.

– Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney was at last night's TNA Impact Wrestling tapings in Georgia and will do some commentary on the November 10th episode. Expect a lot of cross promotion from Bellator and TNA, something you didn't see when UFC was on Spike.

– Early word on TNA's Bound For Glory pay-per-view is that it did between 20,000 and 25,000 buys. The 2010 Bound For Glory did between 35,000 and 40,000 buys.
