TNA World Tag Team Champion Matt Hardy appeared on the Battleground podcast to discuss a variety of topics. He expressed his belief that fans will be pleasantly surprised at TNA Bound For Glory when the Hardys defend their titles against Team 3D, consisting of Bully Ray and D-Von Dudley.

Matt Hardy said, โ€œIโ€™ll be honest. Bubba has still been actively competing a little bit, Dโ€™Von has not in a little while, I know heโ€™s had some health issues. I had no idea where he stood, if he could get back in the ring, if he would be okay to be cleared. According to Bubba and those guys, he is. I think I almost came to the conclusion that it wasnโ€™t gonna happen, just because Dโ€™Von wasnโ€™t healthy enough, but now that it is, itโ€™s really cool and I want to make it as special as possible. I feel like this match, we want to celebrate the legacy of everything weโ€™ve done for all of these decades, especially looking back at that one night โ€” the night that we had the tag team tables match at Madison Square Garden in January 2000. We did a type of match that nobody had ever seen in WWE, it was a car crash. Weโ€™re probably not going to go that all out again, but we are going to surprise a lot of people. I think weโ€™re going to exceed expectations and I think itโ€™s going to be a very smart match we put together. I think itโ€™s going to be excellent.โ€
