Best And Worst of Bound For Glory

#1 Worst: What happened after the match

I don't know if Aries no selling the Brainbuster from Impact and just flipping off and walking out was a work, but if it wasn't, that was really unprofessional from Austin Aries. I don't know what's been his deal lately, but he needs to check his behavior. Very odd. #BFGCOMDA

Johnny Impact won the match by delivering his finisher- Starship Pain, on to Austin Aries. And then Austin Aries took the pin, got up, flipped the announcers and walked to the back, no selling the finish. It was a tragic end to what had been a great match until that point. There's no way to know if this was a work or not, but I thought this was a pretty ugly moment.

If this was a work, it was certainly believable. I wonder if Impact Wrestling is trying to capitalize on the hype of Conor vs. Khabib by booking a post-match angle that overshadowed the actual match. It could potentially play on to the television tapings in the coming weeks.

#ImpactWrestling #BoundForGlory #BFGComda If Aries legit just walked out on @IMPACTWRESTLING, you know there is a set of crazy pissed writers on that creative team — knowing they have to re-script EVERYTHING before this week’s TV tapings! #IMPACTonPOP

Whatever the case may be, this angle made the match feel phony. It was a tragedy that such a good match ended on such a bitter note. And therefore, I will list it as a worst.
