Anderson then declared his intention to end Aces & Eights and gain revenge on Ray. On the November 7 episode of "Impact Wrestling", Anderson demanded a match against Ray to be a no disqualification match at Turning Point, which Ray accepted and then Aces & Eights attacked Anderson. A stipulation was added into the match that if Anderson won then Aces & Eights would disband and if Ray won then Anderson must leave TNA. At Bound for Glory, A.J. Styles defeated Bully Ray to win the World Heavyweight Championship. After retaining the title against Ray in a rematch on the October 24 episode of "Impact Wrestling", Styles refused to sign Dixie Carter's new contract and opted to leave TNA with the title belt. The following week, on "Impact Wrestling", Carter announced that she did not recognize Styles as her champion and a new eight-man tournament would take place to crown a new champion with Bobby Roode, James Storm, Kurt Angle, Chris Sabin, Samoa Joe, Jeff Hardy and Austin Aries announced as participants in the tournament, with the eighth man being determined via a gauntlet match later in the night, which Magnus won. Carter announced that all of the matches would have special stipulations that would be determined by her spinwheel called "Wheel of Dixie". Hardy defeated Sabin in a Full Metal Mayhem match on the November 7 "Impact Wrestling" and Angle defeated Aries in a submission match on the November 14 "Impact Wrestling" in the first round matches of the championship tournament. On the November 14 episode of "Impact Wrestling", it was determined via the Wheel of Dixie that Roode and Storm would compete in a Bullrope match and Magnus and Joe would compete in a Falls Count Anywhere match in the World Heavyweight Championship tournament at Turning Point. The first match of Turning Point was a Falls Count Anywhere match between Magnus and Samoa Joe in the first round of the tournament for the vacant TNA World Heavyweight Championship. After fighting back and forth throughout the backstage area and then through the ringside, Joe tried to charge onto Magnus on a chair but Magnus ducked and Joe ran face-first into the chair, getting knocked out and allowing Magnus to pin him for the victory.
