Knockouts title match added to Impact Wrestling Bound for Glory

Mickie James is gunning for the title she never lost. 

As revealed during the closing segment of Thursday’s Impact Wrestling episode, James will challenge Trinity for the Knockouts World Championship at the Bound for Glory pay-per-view set for Saturday, October 21 in Chicago. 

James made the save for Trinity as the champ faced a two-on-one attack from Savannah Evans & Jai Vidal following a win over Giselle Shaw in the main event of this week’s Impact show. James then announced her intentions to challenge Trinity at Bound for Glory. Impact then officially announced the bout in a social media post. 

James was forced to relinquish the Knockouts World title due to injury this past April, and never lost the Championship in the ring. 

The Knockouts title bout is one of two new matches announced for Bound for Glory, as an X-Division title match with Chris Sabin defending against KENTA was also added to the lineup this week. 

Here is the current Bound for Glory card:
