Bound for Glory IV Results

Sunday October 12, 2008
For the third consecutive year, Sting was in the main event with a chance to win the TNA World Championship. Was Sting able to walk out of this event champion for the third straight year or did Samoa Joe put an end to this streak? The other big match of the night saw Jeff Jarrett return to the ring in a match that featured Mick Foley as the special enforcer referee. Did Jeff win his return match or did Kurt Angle make Jeff wish that he stayed retired?

During the semi-main event match, Kurt Angle made the mistake of hitting Mick Foley with a chair. After Angle hit Jarrett with the chair, Angle went for the pin. Foley pulled referee Rudy Charles out of the ring and then pulled Mr. Socko out of his pants. Foley applied the mandible claw on Angle and then Jarrett hit Angle with his guitar to get the win.

The main event was also marred by outside interference as Samoa Joe's former mentor Kevin Nash came to ringside towards the end of the match. Sting wanted to hit Joe with his baseball bat but Nash wouldn't allow Sting to use it. A few moments later, Nash hit Joe with the bat. Sting followed that by hitting Joe with the Scorpion Death Drop to get the championship winning pin.

Well, it looks like Kevin Nash is with Sting on the whole respect thing. Nash is wanting Joe to learn who paved the road for him. Do you think that Joe, Nash, and Sting will feud for the title?

Hi Big Dave,

Samoa Joe signed a contract on last Thursday night’s iMPACT against Sting that stated that regardless of how their match ended there would be no re-match.

While Joe can’t get his revenge on Sting, he can go after Nash.

As far as who will go after Sting next, my guess would have to be AJ Styles. The two of them have been calling each other out for weeks in this battle of respect between the young and old guys.
