TNA Bound For Glory

TNA Bound For Glory

Bound for Glory is a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced every October by the American Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) promotion. The event was created in 2005 to be their premier event of the year, similar to the company's main rival World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and its WrestleMania event. As of May 2013, eight events have occurred under the chronology.

Since its inception in 2005, all events have been held in the United States. It has been held in five different U.S. states, where every event has been held in an indoor arena. Each event featured wrestlers from TNA competing in various professional wrestling match types. Since the inaugural event, seven championship matches have taken place in the main event. Sting has competed in the four main event match matches, in which he has won either one of two world heavyweight championships TNA has controlled—the NWA World Heavyweight, owned by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) governing body, and the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.

Bound for Glory pay-per-views, like other professional wrestling shows, feature matches that are prearranged by the promotion's writing staff. These matches are non-competitive performances that combine elements of catch wrestling, mock combat, and theatre. Leading up to the pay-per-view, wrestlers are portrayed as either villains or heroes in the scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match at the event.

Famous quotes containing the words bound and/or glory:

    The essence of the modern state is that the universal be bound up with the complete freedom of its particular members and with private well-being, that thus the interests of family and civil society must concentrate themselves on the state.... It is only when both these moments subsist in their strength that the state can be regarded as articulated and genuinely organized.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    The object of government in peace and in war is not the glory of rulers or of races, but the happiness of the common man.
    William, Lord Beveridge (1879–1963)
