on the october 10 edition of "impact wrestling", daniels and kazarian announced bobby roode's induction into the "ego hall of fame", which led to a roode diatribe about how he should have been selected for the actual tna hall of fame instead of kurt angle. angle then returned after an extended hiatus, fought off all three members of ego and challenged roode to a match at bound for glory. the following week, angle stated his discontentment with roode mocking his hall of fame induction and told roode he would make him tap out. roode responded by attacking angle with help from his faction, ego, forcing angle to submit to the crossface hold in a precursory act prior to their match.
