TNA Bound For Glory _ Oct 12, 2025 - Kelani Jordan Vs Indi Hartwell _TNA Knockouts World Championship Match
00:00It is all about the Knockouts World Championship.
00:03NXT's Kalani Jordan defends the Knockouts World title against Indy Hartwell.
00:14There are no countouts, no disqualifications.
00:17First woman to gain pinfall or submission in the ring
00:19is the future number one contender to the Knockouts World Championship.
00:23Come down for glory.
00:25Jackknife cover, oh hold on, Hartwell, Hartwell, Hartwell's going to bow for glory.
00:35We're having a battle royal and the final two knockouts of that battle royal
00:42will compete to crown a new TNA Knockouts World Champion.
00:48It's Laying Lee versus NXT's Kalani Jordan with Indy Hartwell.
00:54Now it's the special guest referee.
00:56The winner is the new Knockouts World Champion.
01:02The referee is down.
01:05One of a kind!
01:07Kalani Jordan is your new TNA Knockouts World Champion.
01:13I'm bound for glory.
01:14I'm going to show you just why no one can do it like Kalani.
01:19I have the support of the locker room.
01:21I have the support of the fans.
01:23And at bound for glory, I will bring that title home
01:28and accomplish my dream of becoming TNA Knockouts World Champion.
01:38Right now, let's take a look at the tail of the tape here at bound for glory
01:41ahead of this Knockouts World Championship matchup.
01:44You have Kalani Jordan, a woman representing two brands
01:46yet questioned by two locker rooms.
01:49Jordan finds herself within and without.
01:51Meanwhile, will our Knockouts World Championship be reclaimed for TNA Wrestling?
01:56Tonight, will the girlhood dream come true for Indy Hartwell?
02:01There she is.
02:18Indy Hartwell walking into what she literally told me earlier this afternoon
02:23was the biggest match of her career, the biggest match of her lifetime.
02:28This opportunity is so important to her that she had, and there they are, her family,
02:37four flights across the globe from Australia to get here to Massachusetts
02:43to watch Indy Hartwell potentially leave with a childhood dream in hand
02:48and becoming Knockouts World Champion.
02:52Indy Hartwell grew up in Australia as a huge TNA fan.
02:56All she ever wanted when she got into pro wrestling
02:58was to become a knockout, become TNA Knockouts World Champion,
03:02and be a part of Bound for Glory.
03:04You saw moments ago the highlights from Showdown this past Tuesday.
03:18It's a complicated situation with Kalani Jordan.
03:21On one side, I can absolutely respect a competitor and an athlete
03:25who took advantage of an opportunity at Victory Road a few weeks ago,
03:29but you could feel how uneasy it was between Jordan and her fellow NXT stars
03:34who were her opponents and then her own teammates
03:37who were obviously cooperating well with her throughout that matchup,
03:41but still, Jordan has got to feel like someone living in two different worlds right now.
03:47That's one of the things that makes this whole partnership,
03:50and especially with the rising tensions between TNA and NXT,
03:53it's what makes it interesting, but it's also, to your point,
03:58what makes it very difficult for those representing both brands with championships.
04:08The Knockouts World Championship is at stake tonight at Bound for Glory.
04:14The following contest is scheduled for one fall
04:23and is for the TNA Knockouts World Championship.
04:31Introducing first the challenger from Melbourne, Australia,
04:37Indy Harswell.
04:42And her opponent, from Boynton Beach, Florida,
04:50she is the TNA Knockouts World Champion,
04:56Kalani Jordan.
05:03We heard earlier tonight on the countdown to Bound for Glory
05:07from the brand new TNA Hall of Famers,
05:10the beautiful people, and Mickie James,
05:13the significance of the Knockouts World Championship,
05:16how it has consistently represented opportunity
05:19and excellence in women's wrestling since 2007,
05:24and how appropriate, as this title is on the line tonight,
05:28and it was introduced first at Bound for Glory at 2007.
05:33TNA Wrestling has been the home and hotbed for women's professional wrestling for decades now,
05:46and now these two are fighting for the richest prize in that entire game.
05:51If you're Indy Harswell, how do you compartmentalize all those emotions,
05:55those thoughts you've had ringing around in your head since you were a teenager?
05:59You take that and you combine that with everything you've done.
06:02Let's not forget, Indy Harswell is a former champion.
06:05She's not some ingenue off the block here.
06:08She's been in this situation before.
06:09Shoulders down, shoulders down, kick out.
06:11And she can do it again.
06:13Oh, Jordan with a crossbody.
06:14Hartwell rolls through.
06:15Here's the cover.
06:16Here's the cover.
06:17The referee counted two.
06:20Indy Harswell with everybody here, her family, the pressure.
06:23Oh, and Jordan just got off the mat.
06:26That's great strength from Kalani Jordan there.
06:29Backside here by Jordan, and another kick out, this time by Harswell.
06:33Very even in the early going.
06:34Back and forth, very even with her Indy Harswell.
06:38I mean, she said, she might have even cursed herself a little bit.
06:41She said, I can't lose.
06:43There's too much on the line here tonight at Bound for Glory.
06:47Indy is a perfect 6-0 in singles action here in TNA with wins over three former
06:55knockouts world champions in Rosemary, Tessa Blanchard.
06:59We mentioned it's Slammiversary and Tasha Steeles.
07:01Meanwhile, Kalani Jordan has been beaten in singles action since June across TNA and NXT.
07:09I see a little bit of frustration from Kalani Jordan earlier there, but now taken back over.
07:16Shoulders down.
07:17Shoulders down and a kick out.
07:19Oh, nice drop kick there by Jordan.
07:22Michigan State brought a big kick attempt there, and Hartwell backing off just in time.
07:27And both these incredible athletes, and we also know a shared history, too.
07:33Indy Harswell talked about it on TNA this past week.
07:37She was in Kalani Jordan's first ever NXT matchup as a tag team partner.
07:42And now here they find themselves in Bound for Glory.
07:45Hold on a second.
07:50Oh, down goes Jordan.
07:58Jordan charges at Indy Hartwell in the corner.
08:01Oh, two wrestlers who have known each other for about three years.
08:07Oh, beautiful leg drop out of the corner.
08:10Jordan stacks up Hartwell.
08:11Oh, and a kick out.
08:13That was close early on here.
08:15That's that gymnastics prowess of Kalani Jordan coming through.
08:19As I mentioned, it was three years ago that Indy Hartwell tagged with Kalani Jordan in her very first live event matchup in NXT.
08:27It's been remarkable to see the growth of Kalani Jordan, and then also for Indy Hartwell to see how this has come to this moment that she's envisioned ever since she was a child.
08:37And Indy Hartwell literally helped Kalani Jordan acclimate to the wrestling world to NXT at the time.
08:44A little bit of a mental arcana situation, but that's hard.
08:48Spine buster off of the ropes.
08:50Oh, and a kick out there by Jordan.
08:52Some high-impact offense by Hartwell.
08:54Great adjustment there.
08:59Great adaptation.
09:00So you take a look at this incredible crowd this evening here at the Sanga Center.
09:05We're live on pay-per-view and TNA Plus around the world in Lowell, Massachusetts for our biggest event of the year.
09:11Bound for glory.
09:14Now Indy, look at spine busters.
09:16Turn the matchup in her favor.
09:18Is it enough here?
09:18She got her shoulders pressed down, and a kick out there by Jordan.
09:24And you can almost see the pressure on Indy's face.
09:28You can see it behind her eyes, how much this means to her.
09:31To your point, the question you asked at the beginning of this matchup, I know he's been in these situations before, but you can see how much this one, in particular, means to her.
09:40Difficult situation here for Kalani Jordan.
09:44Could Indy Hartwell earn a submission victory from this position?
09:48Jordan, extremely flexible, given that gymnastics background you talked about.
09:53And it's necessary in a situation like this.
09:57Nearly bent in half by Indy Hartwell.
10:00Trying to withstand Hartwell.
10:03So much on the line for Indy Hartwell.
10:06Trying to bring the Knockouts World Championship back to TNA Wrestling tonight.
10:10A Bound for glory.
10:14Oh!
10:15Finally, relinquishing the hold there against Kalani Jordan.
10:20Trying to pivot.
10:21Out of the corner, it was Kalani Jordan.
10:24A heavy haymaker of a clothesline there.
10:27Both athletes down to the mat in this one.
10:31Some of the bursts that we've seen from Kalani Jordan.
10:34Whether she's competed in TNA or NXT.
10:37Tremendous fire.
10:39I certainly admire the way that she's handled this situation.
10:42An active NXT star.
10:44Her own locker room is questioning her allegiances.
10:47Meanwhile, she just wanted to win a championship.
10:49And she captured one of the most prestigious titles in women's wrestling.
10:53Look.
10:54You end up with a crown.
10:55You're going to have a lot of people looking to take you down.
10:58And that's exactly what you get as a champion.
11:01No matter what brand.
11:02I don't care what company you work for.
11:04You have people coming for you.
11:05Your loyalties will be tested.
11:08Off to the uppercut.
11:09Hartwell trying to pick up the pace.
11:11There's a forearm shiver by Kalani.
11:12Jordan now taking down Hartwell.
11:14Taking Mack.
11:15Control of the matchup.
11:16Maybe.
11:17Maybe you think it hurts.
11:18Don't it?
11:20Jordan clearly did her homework.
11:22Great scouting there.
11:23Oh!
11:25Hartwell back elbow.
11:30Now Jordan starting to come alive here.
11:35I like the champion for a reason.
11:38You can see that confidence returning to Kalani Jordan.
11:43Shot right to the midsection by Kalani Jordan.
11:45Up onto the shoulders.
11:52Hartwell.
11:53Oh!
11:54He's trying to set up maybe for a Death Valley driver.
11:57Kalani Jordan with a jawbreaker.
12:00Trying to retain the Knockouts World Championship.
12:03And a kick out by Hartwell.
12:05But Jordan held off.
12:06Smart move from the champion there.
12:08Not letting your opponent get an inch.
12:10Oh!
12:11Look at this!
12:12Strong kick right to the spine here of Indy Hartwell.
12:15More of an aggressive side of Kalani Jordan out here tonight.
12:18Single leg Boston crab.
12:20Jordan wants to shut people up.
12:22Over the last few weeks, ever since Victory Road,
12:24she's been hearing a lot of people doubting her.
12:27Jordan's got something to prove.
12:29Also shows what threat she takes.
12:31Indy Hartwell's family at ringside.
12:34We're all the way here from Australia to see Indy Hartwell here at Bound for Glory.
12:39Shame it would be to Andy.
12:41A heartbreak for Indy Hartwell.
12:43But Kalani Jordan dead set on tapping Hartwell out.
12:51Jordan shoved off there by Hartwell.
12:55Champion's advantage, of course, to Jordan.
12:57Title cannot change hands via countout or disqualification.
13:00Only be a pinfall submission in the ring.
13:04It's a breathing room here now for both competitors,
13:07but Jordan back up, start climbing the ropes here.
13:11What is in the mind of a knockout's world champion?
13:15Kalani Jordan.
13:17The cross body off of the top.
13:19Hartwell, ever rolled through.
13:21Look at the straight.
13:24Indy Hartwell trying to get Jordan up.
13:27Hartwell.
13:28Oh, couldn't hold on.
13:29There's the cover.
13:30Oh, and a kick out at two.
13:32Great counter there from Jordan.
13:34Almost a small package, but look out.
13:37Hartwell.
13:39Hartwell trying to gain control here against Kalani Jordan.
13:43Power bomb.
13:43Power bomb.
13:45Blanted.
13:46Don't have a new knockout's world champion.
13:48Oh, and a kick out.
13:49And the frustration continuing to mount for Indy Hartwell here.
13:56The prestige of the TNA knockout's world championship hangs heavy over this matchup.
14:04First captured by the TNA Hall of Famer, Gail Kim.
14:08Other Hall of Famers like we saw earlier on tonight.
14:11Mickey James.
14:12Angelina Love.
14:13The likes of Awesome Kong.
14:14ODB, Tara, who we saw earlier on this evening.
14:18Madison Rain, Deanna Purrazzo, and Jordan Grace.
14:21You see the defiance and the odds of Kalani Jordan.
14:24Oh, beautifully done.
14:25That was incredible.
14:26That was outstanding and completely.
14:30Could be lights out here for Indy Hartwell.
14:34Hartwell's down.
14:35Could she be in position for Jordan?
14:38Jordan going up to the top.
14:41Watch who's going to go for the one-of-a-kind.
14:43One-way and moonsault, but instead a frog splash.
14:46Enough to retain.
14:47No.
14:48Another cover.
14:50Wait, wait, wait.
14:50Referee.
14:51Referee doesn't see it.
14:52Another cover.
14:53Another cover by Hartwell.
14:55And again.
14:55A third cover.
14:57Hartwell's still alive.
14:59Kalani Jordan really trying to keep Indy Hartwell on the back foot here.
15:04Forced her to keep kicking out, keep adapting, keep changing.
15:08Hashtag TNA found for glory is trending on social media.
15:13We are worldwide live on pay-per-view and TNA Plus for our biggest event of the year.
15:21Oh.
15:22And now Jordan, the outside.
15:24Oh, face first.
15:27Good counter there by Indy Hartwell.
15:30On the move.
15:31Bird right to the face there by Hartwell.
15:33Jordan's down on the outside.
15:35Now look, TNA Hartwell's starting to pick up steam.
15:38When she gets this confidence going, she can really take over the matchup.
15:42She has to rise above that pressure.
15:44She has to build some momentum here against Kalani Jordan.
15:47It's been very evenly matched for much of this bout.
15:5150-50 don't win titles.
15:53Look out!
15:54Elbow right to the spine.
15:56Trying to shoot the half.
15:57Fork to the leg.
15:58It's the knockout's real title.
16:00Coming home now.
16:01A kick out by Jordan.
16:02You mentioned it in the past, Ray.
16:07Well, there are three TNA titles on the line tonight that could go home with NXT stars.
16:12Take another look here.
16:14Almost bringing it home with that elbow to the spine of Kalani Jordan.
16:19But Jordan finding a way to dig down deep and stay in this matchup.
16:23Wait a minute.
16:24Going for Hertz.
16:25Toeing it once again.
16:26Jordan had an answer once again.
16:28And shoulders down.
16:29Kick out.
16:30Now Jordan down.
16:31Hartwell can't win the title.
16:33And this one now really starting to pick up steam.
16:36Whoa, whoa.
16:36They can cut her.
16:39Jordan.
16:40Oh, got caught!
16:41Hertz don't it!
16:43Hertz don't it!
16:44Do we have a new champion?
16:46Do we have a new champion?
16:47Oh, Jordan got her foot on the roll.
16:49The match continues.
16:51Just barely.
16:54A second away.
16:56Inches away.
16:58Depending on positioning.
17:00Indy Hartwell had the matchup there with Hertz Donut.
17:05No one has kicked out of Hertz Donut here in TNA Wrestling.
17:10Indy Hartwell is undefeated in singles competition in this company up until now.
17:19Now, headed back up to the top rope.
17:24Hartwell just fired off the best shot in her arsenal.
17:27He's got to regroup.
17:28Going to the top rope.
17:29The reason they call it high risk.
17:33Jordan having an answer here.
17:37Wait a second.
17:38This is dangerous.
17:40This is risky.
17:41Can Hartwell resist?
17:44The knockouts world champion was trying to set up maybe for a Spanish fly.
17:49Hartwell blocked it.
17:50Hartwell had an answer.
17:51Now, once again, big and elbow.
17:54Oh, over the elbow.
17:55Over the spine.
17:55One more time.
17:56Jordan sensed it coming.
17:58Oh, there's a big kick right to the face.
18:00Crash landing.
18:01And now, look out.
18:03What of a kind.
18:04The split-legged moonsault.
18:06One.
18:07One.
18:08Two.
18:09Three.
18:09Jordan retains the knockouts world championship.
18:14Here is your winner.
18:16And still, the TNA knockout world champion.
18:22Kalani Jordan.
18:27Look at the expression on Jordan's face.
18:32A heartbreak for Hartwell.
18:33But a message sent from Kalani Jordan.
18:38I am no longer that kid you met day one in NXT.
18:43I am your knockout world champion.
18:46TNA president Carlos Silva awarding the championship to Kalani Jordan.
18:50But going to check on TNA star, Indy Hartwell.
18:53Who's just lost her first singles match in TNA.
18:57The greatest stage this company has to offer.
19:11A great sign of respect between Kalani Jordan and Indy Hartwell.
19:20But a heartbreak for Indy here at Bound for Glory in front of her family.
19:25A valiant effort regardless.
19:27But it's back to the drawing board for Hartwell.
19:31Heartbreak for Indy Hartwell.
19:33She's been sold by her family here at ringside.
