TNA Impact Wrestling Power Rankings: BFG Battlelines Drawn

Check out this week’s TNA Impact Wrestling Power Rankings to see who’s ready for Bound For Glory.

WHAT?: Cody Rhodes’ vignette for his arrival at Bound For Glory just spiced up TNA in a big way.

Honorable Mention: Moose: His match with Michael Bennett at Bound for Glory will be an important one for his young TNA career and a great way to assess what he’s capable of. A wrecking machine, Moose has the fans support, but a solid, 10-minute match, where he actually sells a bit, will do wonders for him.

5: Mike Bennett: He’s such a bastard, but how can you not love what he does in the ring? With Moose in his sights, Bennett needs a big win in order to get some much-needed momentum on his side. With Maria Kanellis definitely losing the Knockouts Championship at Bound for Glory, Bennett needs to pull out one for the family as well.

4: Drew Galloway: His win this week in the Grand Championship tournament puts him in the final. With Aron Rex in his sights, Galloway has a lot to prove and if he wins the new Grand Championship, his heel turn and dastardly deeds the past few weeks will all be worth it.

3: Aron Rex: Hungry for gold, Rex will get a shot at the new Grand Championship at Bound For Glory.

2: Ethan Carter III: Thought originally to be injured for Bound for Glory, Carter has made a face comeback and will get his shot against Lashley and the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. TNA’s poster boy has proven himself countless times over the past year, but a win at BFG would be huge.

1: Bobby Lashley: The most dominant World Heavyweight Champion TNA has ever had, Lashley is going to have his work cut out for him against Ethan Carter III at Bound For Glory. But like he always has, expect Lashley to step up for crunch time.

Don’t Forget About: Decay/The Hardy Boys: Their feud is easily the best in TNA right now. Expect them to take it to another level at Bound for Glory.
