Bound for Glory was the first TNA pay-per-view event held in a location other than Nashville, Tennessee, or Orlando, Florida, since the first two weekly pay-per-views in June 2002, which were held in Huntsville, Alabama. The Compuware Sports Arena was also the site of the first TNA house show. This was the first pay-per-view to feature a half-hour "Road to" preview airing the night before. This continued for future pay-per-views.[1] This was the first and only time that all of TNA's active championships at the time changed hands in one night.[2]
In October 2017, with the launch of the Global Wrestling Network, the event became available to stream on demand.[3]

Eleven times we've seen all three titles successfully defended on the same night, but only once have we seen all three change hands. Bound for Glory (2006) saw Sting win the World Title from Jeff Jarrett, Chris Sabin defeat Senshi for the X title, and LAX over Styles and Daniels to win the tag titles.
