The bound for glory series is a legue system of 12 wrestlers who will match up with each other for points. The wrestler with the most points at the end will be given a shot at the heavyweight championship. Scoring: 10 points for a submission. 7 points for a pin. Current table: 1. Crimson 17 pts 2. AJ Styles 14 pts 2. Gunner 14 pts 2. Matt Morgan 14 pts 2. James Storm 14 pts 6. RVD 7 pts 6. Scott Steiner 7 pts 6. Bully Ray 7 pts 9. Samoa Joe 0 pts 9. Pope 0 pts 9. Robert Roode 0 pts 9. Devon 0 pts Do you think this is an effective way to make the middle roster matches 'matter'? At least they are earning something for the match.
A good way to make their midcard matches matter is having midcard matches on Impact, rather than a series squashes followed by a four-minute Main Event. Also, AJ Styles is midcard again? It's bad enough the commentary for his flustercuck against Bully Ray presented a two-time Grand Slam champion as overmatched, but if he's the leader of Fortune common sense dictates he should be in the Main Event scene.
