If James Storm is not able to compete in the finals of the Bound for Glory series, I submit three ways to get around the predicament.
1. Prior to the 4 way match, have someone attack Storm and take him out of action. It would then be a 3 way match for the title shot at Bound for Glory. The attackers could be Bully Ray or Gunner, or both working together in an effort to better their odds. That either gives additional heat to whichever was responsible for the attack, or sets up Roode as a sentiment favorite to win the series. Having Roode overcome two members of Immortal could also give him much needed momentum in anticipation of him facing Angle for the title.
2. Move whoever was in 5th place in the standings into Storm's spot. If memory serves me correctly, that would be Rob Van Dam. If so, RVD has the credibility to headline a show for the title. The others in the finals are certainly lacking in star power, and seem like automatic wins for Angle in my opinion. I'm under the assumption that Lynn and RVD will settle their differences before Bound for Glory, which would then open up the possibility of Angle defending against Van Dam.
3. Samoa Joe follows through with his threats to wipe out competitors in the series, a la Crimson last week on Impact. Again, it could easily be done in a backstage segment and result in Storm being too injured to compete. That continues Joe on his path of destruction and gives credence to his efforts to move back up into a more prominent position in the company.
