Why Team 3D Is Facing Tommy Dreamer & Abyss At TNA Bound For Glory, Original Plans For MVP, More
- TNA and Wrestle-1 officials were still working on the Bound For Glory card on Monday, the day they announced it.
Regarding Team 3D vs. Abyss and Tommy Dreamer, that match was thrown together because Team 3D had no one else to face. The original plan for Abyss was a singles match against Bram, who hasn't been announced yet.
It was said that there's more to the X Division Title Match in regards to Samoa Joe's health and the status of the title. As noted, Joe will be defending against Low Ki and former WCW star Kaz Hayashi in a three-way. Apparently Hayashi was put in the match to help carry it in case Joe isn't able to perform well. We noted before that Joe will be ready to go for the pay-per-view but will not be 100%.
MVP was originally going to face 450 pound Ryota Hama, a former Sumo wrestler. They ended up going with MVP vs. former WWE talent Kazma Sakamoto and Hama will be facing Ethan Carter III.
