Anyone think there is a chance of Chris Sabin staying champ until Bound for Glory? As I said in one of the other threads I hope they keep the belt on Sabin three or four months, but given that Bound for Glory is TNA's Wrestlemania I just don't see that happening. With needing to build up to the big show I think the longest Sabin could possibly hold it would be until late September/very early October. That way they can get someone more marketable or convincing to go into the big show as champ.
If they do go into Bound for Glory with Sabin as champ though I think Sabin/Hardy would be my choice. Sabin beating Hardy who is TNA's most marketable full-time wrestler could go a long way in establishing him. Conversely, putting the belt on Hardy, their most marketable full-time wrestler would at least be logical.

If they're going the wrestling "new direction" route, I'd like to see AJ/Sabin, Joe/Sabin or Daniels/Sabin at BFG. If they're going to go for the end of Aces and Eights then have Sabin go over Anderson in the Main Event with 0 shenanigans and I'd be cool with that.

If Bully doesn't win the title back by BFG I can see them doing him vs Rampage.

The only way TNA would put Chris Sabin in the main event of BFG is if they felt they had a loaded undercard (i.e. Rampage vs. Angle, Bully vs. Hogan, etc). I mean, it's possible. Not something I would bet on, but definitely possible.
I still think Bully wins the title back, faces AJ or Magnus at BFG, and loses the title again.

Just taking a random stab in the dark at the card, trying to fit all the main players on the card. This is how I would expect TNA's card to look:
1) Manik (c) vs. Chris Sabin vs. Greg (Trent?) - X-Division Title
2) Mickie James (c) vs. Velvet Sky vs. Taryn Terrell - Knockouts Title
3) Storm/Gunner (c) vs. Bad Influence vs. Hernandez/Chavo vs. Brisco/Bischoff - Tag Team Titles
4) Kurt Angle vs. Rampage Jackson - Octagon Rules
5) Hardy vs. Aries vs. Roode - #1 Contendership for the World Title
6) The Ace's and Eight's (Mr. Anderson, Devon and Knux) vs. The Main Event Mafia (Samoa Joe, Magnus and Sting) - Losing Faction Disbands
7) Bully Ray (c) vs. AJ Styles - TNA World Heavyweight Championship
Might be missing some people, tried to fit everyone of importance in though.

I think your triple main event for the BFG card is obviously the following:
AJ/Bully for the TNA World Heavyweight Title with Hogan as the special enforcer.
Anderson/D-Von/Knux Vs Sting/Magnus/Joe
Kurt Angle Vs Rampage Jackson in a Shoot Rules match
I think with Jeff Hardy you'll have him take on Roode or Aries (I'd prefer Roode)
Your X-Division match could be Sabin/Aries/Manik which would be very decent as we all already know.

After last night's Impact, if they decide to not have Styles win the BFG Series, I could see a Styles/Hardy match at BFG. They work well together and Hardy really has nothing going on storyline-wise right now.

I'm predicting that somebody will cost Sabin the title vs. Bully, which will lead to a one-on-one match for Sabin at BFG.
Who's going to cost him? I have no idea whatsoever.

They seem to be teasing Roode for that spot. He's getting increasingly angrier and it's all about the World Title for him. I could see him costing Sabin the belt and those two wrestling at BFG. It'd be a fine match also.

It'd have to be somebody who'd have a reason for wanting Sabin to lose the strap to Bully, even an indirect reason (e.g. doesn't have to be an Aces and Eights member). Tough to figure who that could be.
For the record, I'd absolutely kill for it to be a returning Alex Shelley, but I'm not holding my breath.

From another board: I've been tracking down the tickets sales for Bound For Glory since the day they went on sale and I can confirm you that around 2800 tickets have been sold so far. I believe this is a good number considering that we are still 2 months away from the event.[/img] Don't know how credible it is since it's just a fan but if they really have sold 2800 already with no matches announced then we could probably see the biggest BFG crowd ever this year.

My birthday is on Tuesday, and my family surprised me a week early with a ticket to BFG.
The ticket is in section G, which based on the map posted in the first page of this thread, had already been sold out according to Ticketmaster.
So either they released more tickets since this thread was started or Ticketmaster misled someone.

You can check out ticketmaster.com right now and count exactly how many seats are left/were sold.

You can check out ticketmaster.com right now and count exactly how many seats are left/were sold. I don't know how to do that but: The floor is entirely sold out which would be about a thousand seats and they've sold out 7 other sections if the map on the first page is correct (Unable to buy tickets in sections P, N, M, L, K, J, H I think that fits the 2500-3000 estimation although if I'm wrong I'd love someone to tell me so.

They have sold out section C since I posted last night also. Only cheap seats available for that section. Very cool.

So it's Bully Ray defending against AJ Styles, officially.
I'm going to guess Aries, Magnus, and Joe team up to face E.G.O., either a 3-on-3 or in three individual matches.
The biggest issue is what they will do with Jeff Hardy. Hard to believe they have nothing for him, and haven't since Lockdown.
