On Thursday night's iMPACT!, Jim Cornette said there will be a Knockouts Gauntlet Match at Bound for Glory in which ten women will go at it to determine the first TNA Women's World Champion. Cornette said the match will feature "five girls you know and five girls you don't know." The five women confirmed to compete in the match are Christy Hemme, Gail Kim, Ms. Brooks, Jackie Moore and Roxxy Laveaux. We don't have any names yet regarding the five mystery women, but they will likely be composed of girls from the all-women's indy promotion SHIMMER for the most part. There is also a good chance that some of the mystery women will turn out to be former WWE Divas. TNA has shown interest in the past in Shelly "Ariel" Martinez and Nidia, but as valets and not wrestlers, so you can probably cross them out.(wrestlingexposed.com)

10 women in the ring fighting can't be a bad thing!!
