TNA Bound For Glory 2025: The Legacy Continues in Lowell, MA

Bound for Glory (2025)

Preview: TNA’s Big Night in Lowell

Date & time: Sunday, October 12, 2025 — doors at 6:00 pm, bell at 7:00 pm (ET)

Venue: Tsongas Center, 300 Arcand Drive, Lowell, Massachusetts

Promotion: TNA Wrestling (Total Nonstop Action)

This year’s edition of Bound for Glory marks the 21st event in the series.

It also marks a return to Lowell for TNA — the first live event in Lowell since 2013, and first pay-per-view in the city since 2008’s TNA Lockdown 2008.

Lowell and the broader Boston / New England region have long had passionate wrestling audiences — so it’s a smart pick for TNA’s “flagship” show of the year.

Ticket-sales data show about 4,769 tickets out as of Oct 10.

Expect a mixture of legacy stars, new blood, and a key storyline featuring inter-promotional crossover via the TNA / WWE-NXT partnership.

Key Matches & Storylines to Watch

Here are some of the top matches we know so far:

Trick Williams (c) vs. Mike Santana for the TNA World Championship. Santana is billed as trying to bring TNA’s top title “back home.”

Leon Slater (c) vs. Je’Von Evans for the X-Division Championship. This is one of the “dream match” style bouts given the youth & style of both competitors.

The Hardys (Jeff & Matt Hardy) vs. Team 3D (Bully Ray & D-Von) — billed as one “last time” match, in a tables match, legacy-heavy.

Call Your Shot Gauntlet — a multi-entrant gauntlet match with the winner earning a future title opportunity. One of the entrants is high-profile social media / YouTube star Brandon Collymore (aka BDE).

Women’s division: The title scene includes Indi Hartwell vs. Kelani Jordan for the Knockouts Championship. Jordan’s recent win came via surprise, so the question is whether TNA keeps that momentum.

Also: Other title opportunities, perhaps international / “International Championship” matches, and surprise appearances given the NXT tie-in.

Hall of Fame Ceremony

One of the big “moment” features of the night: the induction into the TNA Hall of Fame.

This year’s class includes:

Mickie James — former 5-time TNA Knockouts World Champion.

Velvet Sky and Angelina Love (together known as “The Beautiful People”) — former Knockouts tag champs.

The ceremony is scheduled for Sunday, October 12, ahead of (or during) the Bound for Glory show.

Given the presence of veteran stars and fan-favorite names, this induction is likely to bring high emotional energy and get strong reactions from the crowd. Including photos / quotes from this will be a big plus for your live coverage.

Venue & Fan Experience Tips

The Tsongas Center enforces a clear bag policy: only one of either a one-gallon clear plastic freezer bag, or one clear vinyl/PVC bag not over 12″ x 12″ x 6″. Small clutch bags allowed (max 6.5″ x 4.5″).

Arrive early: meet & greet / autograph/photo sessions are advertised post-show.

Streaming / PPV: The event will be available on TNA+ and via other providers.

Historically, Bound for Glory is positioned as TNA’s “biggest event of the year,” comparable (within TNA’s structure) to what WWE WrestleMania is to WWE.

Trivia: Bound for Glory started in 2005 and has been the flagship PPV ever since.

Trivia: Lowell hosting the PPV marks a return to New England after many years, and the arena capacity (~10,000) suggests TNA expects a strong regional draw.
