On tonight's live airing of "TNA Impact," the TNA World Tag Team Champion Ryan Nemeth punched his ticket as the fifth challenger to head to Bound for Glory next month as part of its six-way scramble for the vacated X-Division Championship.Tonight's qualifier match started with Nemeth shoving KJ Orso (Fuego Del Sol) into the corner. Unmasked in tonight's match, Orso connected a nice scoop and slam for only a single count. On the outside, Nemeth hit a neckbreaker, slid himself and Orso back in the ring, for only a one count. Later in the match, Nemeth survives an Orso driver. Putting the match away, Nemeth sent Orso into the ring post before hitting a big Hollywood Ending to secure the finish. Nemeth now joins Fabian Aichner, KC Navarro, Rich Swann, and Cedric Alexander (via rematch clause) in Tampa, Florida, to determine who the new X-Division Champion will be.The upcoming six-way scramble came to be after Leon Slater, who won the X-Division Championship for the second time in his career over Alexander, chose to seek the "Option C" clause at Lockdown in August, which allows for any X-Division Champion to vacate the title for a shot at the TNA World Championship. Slater will face the current world champion, Nic Nemeth, at Bound for Glory in the main event.Bound for Glory will air live on Sunday, October 11, on pay-per-view and TNA+.
