The October pay-per-view will see the Hardy Boyz and Team 3D (the Dudley Boyz) face each other one last time in Lowell, Massachusetts.

With Bully Ray having challenged the Hardys to one more match back, D-Von has opened up about his trust in his opponents.

A storied history between The Hardys and the team known to WWE fans as the Dudley Boyz will come to an end with a familiar stipulation.

As reported by PW Torch, the match between both teams will be a tables match, as confirmed during the TNA Impact tapings in Minneapolis.

With both teams in the ring, the Hardys agreed to put their TNA World Tag Team Championship on the line, though they also stated that a win for them would mean the Dudleys had to declare Matt & Jeff the best tag team of their generation.

It would be Bully Ray who would introduce the match stipulation, reflecting on a past encounter, saying:

“Despite the fact that we’ve won 24 world tag team championships and you’ve won 15 world tag team championships, it still bothers us.

“So in 2025, if we’re going to do this, let’s do this the right way. The Hardys, Team 3D, Bound for Glory for the TNA World Tag Team Championships in a tables match.”

Both teams chose to forego the usual contract signing, opting to shake hands instead, to much cheering from the fans in attendance.

Three other matches have so far been announced for TNA Bound For Glory, with NXT’s Trick Williams defending the TNA World Championship against Mike Santana.

Elsewhere on the card, Ash by Elegance or Masha Slamovich will defend the TNA Knockouts World Championship against Indi Hartwell.

There will also be a 10-person Hardcore War match which sees The System (Moose, Alisha Edwards, Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers & JDC) take on Order 4 (Mustafa Ali, Tasha Steelz, Agent 0 and The Great Hands (Jason Hotch & John Skyler)).
