Some times you need predictability to make sense and sometimes you need unpredictability to shake stuff up. This is one of the times where they should have went with predictability. They had it perfectly set up to make Roode a main eventer and put him over on what was great build.

i bet on Angle in the vbookies :lmao
So you're the guy who put 8 credits on him :lol:

I didn't put much stock into Hogan's comments in effecting the result of the match but guess maybe I should considering the result. Can't wait for Impact when Angle tries to put over Roode during a promo and they think that is good enough.

As we discussed on the TNA Bound for Glory Post-Game show last night in the PWInsider Elite section, the original plan for the PPV was for Bobby Roode to defeat Kurt Angle for the TNA championship to close the PPV. The story going around was that yesterday afternoon, Hulk Hogan lobbied to have the finish change, feeling that Roode wasn't ready for a run with the title. So, the finish was changed.

Between that and the AJ Styles stuff in the last few days, there was a lot of resentment towards Hogan among the long time members of the roster. The resentment was especially at a high because Hogan was ripping on Styles on Twitter when everyone knew Styles had missed the TNA Fan Interaction event due to a death in the family.

One running joke I heard after the PPV, which to a person, everyone agreed wasn't a strong show, was whether roster talents could "request a transfer" to Jeff Jarrett's new India project.

Then if Hogan thought all that then why have Roode even win the damn thing. They always mess up the perfect timing to put the belt on a guy.

Perfect timing? He may be in the prime of his career but he pretty much stumbled into winning the Bound For Glory series. I'm still think he should have won, though.

Also, Kendrick/Aries was awesome. It was everything an ROH match isn't for the good reasons.
