In his latest blog entry, WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross talked about last night’s TNA Bound For Glory 2015, where Matt Hardy won his first ever TNA World Heavyweight Championship (click here for full results from the show). Below are some of the things he noted:
On Bobby Roode vs. Bobby Lashley:
“Bobby Roode and Bobby Lashley had a damn good match. So did the Wolves tag title bout. Enjoyed two of my favorites in Gail Kim and Awesome Kong but thought the finish could have been better strategized.”
On the TNA World Title main event:
“Never book two fan favorites versus one villain in a triple threat match. It won’t work as a rule and did not work as it could have or should have. No issues with Matt Hardy winning the TNA Title by pinning Drew Galloway while EC3 remained undefeated but he lost his title. The champion losing his title without being pinned or submitted is as lame as being able to win a cage match by escaping the cage.”
On Kurt Angle’s In-Ring Return & match with Eric Young:
“Impressed with Eric Young’s skill set a heel and Kurt Angle is still a badass and effective if not over exposed. Angle at Wrestlemania Texas vs. Brock Lesnar would be a massive hit but it seems that the decision makers in WWE don’t share my optimism but I might be wrong.”
JR’s grade for the show:
“Gave the show a C+ grade as it had some good moments including the talent working hard but some of the booking was suspect IMO.”
