TNA Bound For Glory Results:

-The show began with a recap video that detailed all the major matches on the show.

-After, the National Anthem was played and the first match walked out when Steve Maclin made his entrance to the ring.

-Steve Maclin defeated Frankie Kazarian to win the TNA International Championship. Maclin won the match with the KIA and it was a back and forth, but action-packed encounter. The audience loved Maclin throughout the match and during the bout, Maclin's mother gave Kazarian the double bird.

-TNA World Champion, Trick Williams, was interviewed backstage. Williams said that everyone should thank him for bringing viewers to TNA and fans to the building. Williams said he turned TNA upside down. Williams said that the TNA Champion isn't the guy with the best story, but the guy that is best for business. He said that man was him.

-Tessa Blanchard and Gia Miller made their entrances to the ring and started their match.

-Tessa Blanchard defeated Gia Miller. The match wasn't much of anything and Blanchard took most of the match on offense. Miller had Blanchard up for a big powerbomb, but Blanchard smashed her in the face with a roll of quarters. Blanchard then picked up the victory. A bit of a strange way to use Tessa Blanchard at the biggest show of the year.

-Nic Nemeth and Frankie Kazarian both won the Call Your Shot Guantlet Match. Nemeth and Kazarian were the final two competitors in the match and both pinned the other. With two referees out in the ring, they both counted both sets of shoulders down. Santino Marella declared that both men won the match for the first time in history.

-The Gauntlet Match featured the returning Rich Swann, Matt Cardona, The Rascalz, and other key talents in TNA.

-Kelani Jordan defeated Indi Hartwell to retain the TNA Knockouts World Championship. The match had some sloppy moments in it, but Jordan connected with a Split Leg Moonsault to earn the victory.

-After the match, Jordan offered up and shook hands with Hartwell before raising it in the middle of the ring. After, Jordan celebrated and Hartwell was consoled by her family.

-A recap video aired that detailed the storyline between Order 4 and The System. After, the rules of a Hardcore War match were read and the teams made their entrances.

-The System defeated Order 4 in a Hardcore War. The match featured thumbtacks, chairs, kendo sticks, chains, barbed wire, and a lot more. In the end, Mustafa Ali mistakenly crashed into a bed of tacks when attempting a 450 Splash. After, Eddie Edwards hit Ali with a running knee, while his knee was wrapped in barbed wire. Edwards then pinned Ali for the win.

-Leon Slater and Je'Von Evans made their entrances. The bell rang for the match to begin and the audience roared as both men stared one another down from across the ring. Then, both men locked up and the match began.

-Leon Slater vs. Je'Von Evans for the TNA X-Division Championship ended in a no-contest. Initially, the match ended in a time limit draw when the action went to the 20-minute mark. Santino Marella walked out and gave the match five more minutes, but before there was a finish, DarkState interfered and destroyed both guys.

-The match between Slater and Evans was tremendous. State of the art athleticism, but with strong storytelling and investment from the audience.

-Chris Bey walked out and revealed that Bound For Glory 2025 set a new North American attendance record for TNA.

-Team 3D and The Hardys both made their entrances to huge reactions from the audience.

-The Hardys defeated Team 3D in a Ladder Match to retain both the TNA and NXT World Tag Team Championships. Team 3D put Matt Hardy through a table first and then Jeff Hardy hit D-Von with a Swanton Bomb from a ladder and through a table to even the odds. Later in the match, The Hardys pounded on Bubba Dudley with a chair until Dudley essentially gave up. Both Hardys dropped their steel chair and then lifted Dudley high into the air before slamming him through the table for the victory.

-After the match was over, both teams embraced in the middle of the ring as the audience cheered for them. The Hardys raised their titles in the air and walked away, but Bubba and D'Von stopped them. They then removed their boots and gave them to their rivals as their sign of retirment from pro wrestling.

-Mike Santana made his entrance through the crowd ahead of the main event TNA World Championship match. Trick Williams followed. Both started to brawl before the match officially started and that brawl took them into the audience stands and back. Once they got back to the ring, the match began.

-Mike Santana defeated Trick Williams to win the TNA World Championship. Santana battled Williams and his lawyer toward the end of the match, but was able to connect with the Spin The Block for the victory.

-Santana celebrated and his daughter cried in the crowd. As he did, Nic Nemeth's music hit. It appeared as if Nemeth would try to cash in the title shot he won earlier in the night. Instead, the lights went out and Elijah appeared from behind Nemeth. Elijah crushed Nemeth with his guitar.

-Back in the ring, Frankie Kazarian appeared and wanted to try his cash-in, but didn't have the trophy. Santana crushed him with Spin The Block and ended that threat.

-Mike Santana celebrated with his daughter in the ring. He gave her the title belt and then raised her hand as well as the Puerto Rican flag.
