Description
The primary feud heading into Bound for Glory was between Sting and Hulk Hogan. On the January 4, 2010 special 3 hour Monday night episode of TNA Impact!, Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff debuted in TNA. From the moment they arrived, Sting suspected that they were up to a conspiracy and tried to warn TNA President Dixie Carter to no avail. The master plan was soon revealed on October 10 at Bound for Glory 2010, when Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff, Jeff Jarrett, Abyss and newly crowned TNA World Heavyweight Champion Jeff Hardy were revealed to be "They", an entity Abyss claimed for several months would come forth at the event. The group subsequently named themselves Immortal and Sting, along with his ally Kevin Nash, who had stuck by him and his suspicion for months, were invited to join the group but the two left the company. After several months of Immortal controlling TNA, Sting returned on the March 3, 2011 episode of Impact! to win the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, retaining the belt during his feud with Immortal until on June 12 at Slammiversary IX, where he began a short back-and-forth rivalry with Mr. Anderson for the title and eventually won it back. During this time, Sting began to assume a maniacal, Joker-like gimmick dubbed the "Insane Icon". On August 8 at Hardcore Justice, Sting lost the title to Kurt Angle following interference from Hogan, recruiting Angle to Immortal in the process. After Hogan cost Sting the opportunity to regain the title on two separate occasions in September 2011, Sting started plaguing Hogan to change for the better and fought long-time rival and Immortal member Ric Flair to earn the victory and a match against Hogan on October 16 at Bound for Glory. On the October 6 episode of Impact, Hogan agreed to give TNA back to Dixie Carter if Sting won the match.


Bobby Roode, winner of the 2011 Bound for Glory Series.
During June, the implementation of a three-months long points tournament referred to as the "Bound for Glory Series", became the focal point in determining a number one contender for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship at Bound for Glory out of twelve top contenders. According to the rules, the top four wrestlers that accumulated the most points that were earned from matches held on Impact!, live shows, and pay per views, would compete in tournament finals matches at No Surrender, where the winner would gain the opportunity to challenge for the TNA World Title at the company's biggest annual spectacle. In September, Bobby Roode, Bully Ray, Gunner and James Storm emerged as the top four contenders heading into No Surrender. At the PPV on September 11, Roode and Bully Ray finished tied in the top of the standings, after Roode defeated Gunner via submission and Bully Ray defeated Storm via disqualification. Roode then defeated Bully Ray later in the night to break the tie and become the number one contender to the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.

A.J. Styles versus Christopher Daniels was another rekindled feud heading into an "I Quit" match at Bound for Glory. On the March 31 episode of Impact!, Daniels returned saving the heroic Fortune group from a beat down by the villain group, Immortal, who had also been responsible for an injury which temporarily sidelined Styles. On April 17 at Lockdown, Daniels teamed with the rest of Fortune to defeat Immortal in a Lethal Lockdown match during which saw the return of Styles seeking retribution against Immortal member Bully Ray. In June, Styles declared he was returning to the X Division for one night when it would be commemorated. Challenged by Daniels, Styles later accepted the match, with the two agreeing not to make the competition compromise their friendship. On July 10 at the X Division-based Destination X PPV, Styles defeated Daniels in the main event. Over the next several weeks, Daniels asked for a rematch which took place on the September 1 episode of Impact!, with Daniels picking up the win. After the match, Daniels refused to shake Styles' hand. On the September 22 episode of Impact!, Daniels kept bragging about his victory over Styles, which eventually led to a brawl between the two that was broken up by Fortune member Kazarian before Daniels then hit Styles, completing his turn into a villain. Two weeks later it was announced that, under Daniels' request, the two would face each other in an "I Quit" match at Bound for Glory.
