With two TNA titles already in NXT&#8217;s hands, another TNA title on the line and up for grabs for an NXT talent, and the Hardys facing DarkState in a Winner Take All match at NXT Invasion, it&#8217;s easy to think Bound For Glory could become a TNA vs NXT event for all the TNA titles. With all the consequences it could represent for TNA.<\/p>\n<h2>What We Know So Far<\/h2>\n<p>TNA Wrestling currently has six Championships, with two yet in NXT&#8217;s hands. At NXT Battleground, Trick Williams defeated Joe Hendry to become the first NXT wrestler to hold the TNA World Championship. It was the first time a TNA title was on the line in a WWE event.<\/p>\n<p>On the September 4 episode of TNA iMPACT, the TNA Director of Authority, Santino Marella, made official the main event of Bound For Glory. Mike Santana and Trick Williams will meet one-on-one with the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/09\/05\/mike-santana-tna-world-championship-at-tna-bound-for-glory-2025-everything-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">TNA World Title<\/a> up for grabs. After <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">TNA Slammiversar<\/span>y, Williams would attempt legal action in hopes of avoiding another match with Santana, but was unsuccessful. Will Santana complete his Path of Purpose and bring home the TNA World Championship?
