Event . At Bound for Glory , Jeff Jarrett turned on Samoa Joe during their three – on – two handicap match against Sting , Kevin Nash and " The Pope " D ' Angelo Dinero . The main event of Bound for Glory was a three – way match between Jeff Hardy , Mr . Anderson and Kurt Angle for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship . Near the end of the match , Eric Bischoff came to the ring with a chair and attempted to interfere in the match , but was stopped by the surprise appearance of Hulk Hogan . Hogan and Bischoff appeared to have a disagreement , but this was a ruse as they helped Hardy win the match . After the match , it was revealed that Abyss , Hogan , Bischoff , Jarrett and Hardy were " they " . Aftermath . On the following episode of Impact , Dixie Carter ' s attorney , Guy Blake , accosted Eric Bischoff and accused him for getting Dixie to sign a different contract other than the one to carry out the firing of Abyss , alleging that Bischoff switched contracts and had her sign it under false pretenses . Bischoff declared that Carter openly signed the papers live on TV and welcomed any legal action as Blake made his intentions clear that he would further the case . Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff firmly stated that they were the new owners of TNA and together with their new group , " they " were Immortal . Fortune joined their regime after Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan exposed that they had gotten over their past differences . At that time , new TNA World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Hardy admitted to being responsible for Abyss critically attacking Rob Van Dam in order to remove him from the TNA World Title picture , and although Kevin Nash and Sting were invited to align with Immortal , they refused and chose to leave TNA . Carter was also ejected from the building while trying to find out why Hogan and Bischoff conned her into taking over the company . Soon enough , Carter eventually slapped Hogan with a court order . On the March 3 , 2011 edition of Impact , when the case settled , Hogan made his return and publicly announced that the judge ruled in his favor , and he would take full control of TNA as the owner , while Carter would only " provide the money " . On this same episode , Sting returned and from then on , did everything in his power to turn Hogan back to the good side , ending with their match at Bound for Glory 2011 , that saw Sting defeat Hogan ( before Hogan changed for the better ) , with the stipulations that Carter would get back control of TNA if Sting won . Fortune and EV 2 . 0 continued their feud into Turning Point 2010 , where Fortune picked up the victory in their final group versus group war , which allowed Fortune to " fire " a member of EV 2 . 0 that manifested itself as Sabu . EV 2 . 0 gradually crumbled before Fortune divided from Immortal in January 2011 to start their next rivalry . Kurt Angle prepared to retire by giving his farewell address following his loss at Bound for Glory , but found himself in a dilemma over the situation , when he discovered a loophole that he wasn ' t pinned or submitted in the match . Interrupted , Jeff Jarrett re - lit his feud with Angle , blaming him for making his life a living hell after recruiting him to TNA and was seeking to return the favor . Around the same time , Samoa Joe sought retribution against Jarrett for placing his trust in him and getting betrayed , which converted into matches at the next two PPVs . Upset over Tara winning the Knockouts Championship , Madison Rayne called Tara out to the ring and demanded that she lay down and hand her the title , claiming that Tara " owed her " for bringing her back to TNA . Tara agreed , and she surrendered the Knockouts Championship to Rayne . Afterwards , Rayne would feud with Mickie James over the title ; defeating her at Genesis and Against All Odds ( with Tara ' s help ) before losing the title to James at Lockdown .
