A new TNA X Division champion will be crowned at the upcoming Bound For Glory pay-per-view after new champion Leon Slater surrendered the title to exercise option C and challenge for the TNA World title instead.

TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella confirmed yesterday that a series of qualifying matches will start on Impact, where each winner will then advance to a final match at the pay-per-view. The match will be a six-way and the winner of that bout becomes the new TNA X Division champion.

Former X Division champ Leon Slater, who won the title at Lockdown, will take on Nic Nemeth in the main event of the show.
