TNA is definitely going all out when it comes to the upcoming Bound for Glory pay-per-view, since they already have a pretty solid card. Interestingly enough, fans might just get to see a surprising name make their TNA in-ring debut at the show as well.

Wrestling influencer BDE took to Twitter and stated he’ll be in the front row at Bound for Glory, but what he really wants is to take part in the Call Your Shot Gauntlet match. He even asked fans if anyone wanted to see him compete.

“I’ll be sitting Front Row at #TNABoundForGlory this Sunday. But… what I really want is to be in that Call Your Shot Gauntlet! It may not be soon, but my goal is to be in @ThisIsTNA Who else wants to see that?”

Tommy Dreamer noticed his passion and said he knows BDE has been training hard and has a big online following. Dreamer said he checked him out and heard good things from Sami Callihan.

Dreamer noted that Matt and Jeff Hardy also supported him and said he deserves a chance. AJ Francis made fun of him, and Nic and Ryan Nemeth laughed at the idea of an influencer wrestling. Dreamer said he would talk to Carlos Silva and Santino Marella about it.

“I hear u have been training hard & have a strong following I do my research @TheSamiCallihan put you over @MATTHARDYBRAND @JEFFHARDYBRAND said give you a chance @AJFrancis410 buried you @NicTNemeth @ryrynemnem laughed at the term influencer I will ask @carlossilva @milanmiracle”

TNA President Carlos Silva also took to Twitter and stated that they could take a look and see if BDE can really perform, saying he’s open to giving him a chance, saying, “Let’s take a look. See if he can hang. Happy to consider it.”

It is to be noted that BDE has already wrestled a few times in other places and impressed people with his in-ring skills. If TNA allows him to compete at Bound for Glory, it could mark the beginning of an exciting mix between wrestling media influencers and real in-ring action, so we’ll have to see if BDE will make his TNA debut this week.
