Like every other wrestling company, TNA creates a weekly preview of its flagship show, Impact Wrestling. And, like every other wrestling company, they don’t always tell the truth when hyping their product. Thankfully, Dave is here to try to figure what TNA is trying to say, and tell you what he thinks, so you don’t have to do either.

Heading into the event, the nearly unanimous opinion in the wrestling world was that TNA had done a poor job making “their Wrestlemania” feel special in spite of four full months of TV time build angles. Let’s find out it was right.
It’s Bound For Glory Sunday! Which means it’s time for Dave to ask What’s the Worst That Could Happen? at BFG (you’d be surprised).
This week’s edition of Impact Wrestling is the go-home show leading into TNA’s biggest event of the year, Bound For Glory. What’s the Worst That Could Happen?
