Major changes to BFG

[Double J]

The following changes have been made to the TNA Bound For Glory PPV:

* Chris Sabin & Alex Shelley vs. Consequences Creed & Jay Lethal has been added as a match at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time that will air for free on the PPV channel.

* Amazing Red has been added to the Ultimate X match, which is now a title match.

* Samoa Joe vs. Bobby Lashley is now a submissions only match

* The double tag title match is now a full metal mayhem match, with Tables, Ladders, Chairs and Chains legal.



The tag match is BS, they should just add that to the PPV itself, not a preshow match. And I'm guessing Red wont be having a long title run, my guess is Daniels wins.

Stupid that its MMA vs. TNA with the Lashley/Samoa Joe match.

The only thing im really hoping for, is MCMG to get over.. I mean srsly, I remember when they were in singles ripping up the X Division.. but look at them now.

I thought it was stupid to have an Ultimate X match without the Champ defending in it when he would have had nothing else to do so adding him Red was good, I don't see why Joe Vs Lashley has been made a Submission match, Lashley will be horrible and Joe is a Submission God so obviously they will have Lashley win, tag title match could be good even though they already have a Monsters ball match on the card, this should be the end of all these huge tag matches though, new tag champs will be crowned imo. MCMG Vs Lethal and Creed should be a good preshow match to get the crowd started.

This PPV is getting a little to gimmicky but atleast there is a nice mix of the gimmick matches rather then 3 of the same gimmick match each PPV...

I think the tag match was always suposed to be full metal mayhem, just that like it was like a ladder or tlc in which you would have to climb the ladder to win.....I mean lets be honest, there all the same type of match anyways, just cause its only called a ladder match doesn't mean you get dqed if you break out a chair. But the reason I think it always was supposed to be full metal mayhem is because thats what it said on the web site graphic when the match was first announced. On TNA's web site they posted the graphic and it said Full Metal Mayhem. The impact that took place after they called it a ladder match, but I think that was an error on the announcers part.

Let's face it. MCMG will only get on the preshow and let's just appreciate that they are at least wrestling.

Well Sabin should hit the gym and get back to the size he was in 04/05, Shelley should watch some tapes of Jericho and younger hbk and take advantage of all house shows they do and build a character, he was great in 06 , show some initiative and don't be held back by management . same with creed and lethal. Though they both are very young, honestly there's maybe 2 x division guys I can stand in the mic and that's Pope and Bashir. I would say homicide but half the time I don't understand a word he says. and is there any reason Kaz isn't up there with Morgan and Styles in this youth/fresh movement they are supposed to be having?

Personally, I have to disagree with most of the comments stated in this thread. Firstly, I agree that adding Amazing Red to the Ultimate X match was a good idea, it now makes this match worth watching, although I can see Red retaining but you never know I suppose, I'm already loving D-Dub as his manager although the ending of his match with Suicide was absolutely terrible on IMPACT! this week, making Dinero interfere just messed the whole match up, it would've made much more since if Red had just won cleanly, make it look like D-Dub is gonna look like a good manager.

Back onto topic though, I like the fact that Joe/Lashley is a submission match. Joe has lacked in the ring in most matches as of late but he is a submission machine. People may not understand why Lashley is being involved in a submission match but he'll likely lock in a few MMA manoeuvres, since the tagline is 'TNA vs. MMA'. TBH, I wouldn't be surprised if they just taped their ankles and had an Angle/Joe Lockdown 2008 type of style match, but we'll just have to wait and see, I'm personally hoping Joe comes out on top.

The Full Metal Mayhem stipulation to the tag titles match is very good, makes the match much more interesting for me, since Booker/Steiner may be leaving the company, I can definitely see British Invasion come out on top of this one. MCMG/Lethal Consequences match should definitely be added to the show, but after all, when Eric Young's push began, he was added to the pre-show of Lockdown with Danny Bonaduce, plus not too many were complaining when MCMG when in the BFG dark match in 2007, but I suppose they weren't over as much back then but with Steiner/Booker leaving and new theme music and such for the MCMG, I can definitely see good things for the MCMG after the BFG PPV, but that tag match should definitely be added to the card.
