<\/p>\n

Last night’s NXT Showdown<\/a> <\/span>was an excellent wrestling show, but TNA and NXT ended up in a tie. TNA won the Tag Team titles bout and the NXT vs TNA Men’s match. NXT retained the NXT North American Championship and won the NXT vs TNA Women’s match. Storyline-wise, there was enough to feel a bit frustrated.<\/p>\n

We could expect betrayals; there were none. History was meant to be made, and it was. As we are now a few days away from TNA Bound For Glory<\/a><\/span>, in which many NXT talents will compete, NXT Showdown leaves the fans with a lot of question marks. Is the war between NXT and TNA over? Can we expect more surprises as TNA Bound For Glory is just four days away?<\/p>\n

The Hardys Made History, Once Again<\/h2>\n

Matt and Jeff Hardy did something incredible. Their careers have always been made up of incredible moments. With the TNA Bound For Glory match<\/a><\/span> being a TNA Tag Team titles match, the chances for the Hardys to win were important. Team 3D, Bully Ray and D-Von, were there, front row, to witness the first time TNA Wrestlers have captured an NXT Championship.<\/p>\n

At 51 and 48, Matt and Jeff Hardy gave a lesson to DarkState. A lesson of resilience, passion, and most importantly, wrestling. The Hardys are now the NXT and TNA Tag Team Champions. For the old-time fans like me, it was a true feel-good moment. More than becoming double Champions, the Hardys’ legacy earned the right to make history again and be the first TNA talents to win an NXT Championship.<\/p>\n

Now, at Bound For Glory, things should be a bit more complicated. Team 3D vs The Hardys “One Last Time” is a Tables Match for the TNA Tag Team Championship, which means DarkState could interfere in the match without consequences. Also, as the Hardys are double Champions, Team 3D could up the ante and ask for the two Championships to be on the line.<\/p>\n
