There may not be a Forbidden Door left following Slammiversary. Its hinges were already a bit loose, and now it has blown off completely.
On Saturday, 23 October, IMPACT Wrestling's Bound For Glory pay-per-view - in Las Vegas, presumably the first IMPACT show away from Skyway Studios - will be an interpromotional event also featuring All Elite Wrestling, New Japan Pro Wrestling, and Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. You can likely add the National Wrestling Alliance to that list, too.
The seeds have already began to be planted for more crossover before then, however. As alluded to earlier, Deonna Purrazzo was confronted post-win over Thunder Rosa by Mickie James. The returning star invited 'The Virtuosa' to NWA's Empowerrr pay-per-view next month, with the two getting into it slightly.
Furthermore, Jay White - New Japan's NEVER Openweight Champion - came face to face with the Super Elite at the night's conclusion, with the FITE TV feed cutting as someone ran in. According to Sean Ross Sapp, this was FinJuice, with White hitting his finish on David Finlay - his upcoming challenger.
Bound For Glory is going to be massive. Arguably, it's going to be the most important night in IMPACT's history, something that is said every pay-per-view it seems. Bring it on.
