The rivalry between TJP and Rohit Raju intensified last night!
Once again, Raju hosted his open challenge for the X-Division Title, but TJP came instead. Annoyed with seeing the former title holder looking for another opportunity at his prestigious belt, Raju blasted the veteran and told TJP that he had his opportunity at Bound For Glory.
TJP ignored his statement and shot back by criticizing the way Raju has held onto his belt thus far and put over the struggles that he’s overcome in order to get into the current position that he was in. Raju tore into the 36-year-old by calling him “pathetic” and a “has-been”.
TJP dropped the mic and pretended to leave but attacked Raju and sent the X-Division Champion running from the ring. Backstage, TJP requested one more match for the belt and Scott D'Amore granted him an X-Division title shot for next week. However, if TJP fails to win the title then he can no longer challenge for the X-Division Championship.
