Leon Slater beat Nic Nemeth at TNA Bound for Glory in Tampa to become the youngest TNA World Champion in the company's history. POST Wrestling reports that the 22 year old English wrestler won in 18:19 at the Yuengling Center. He had to pull out many of his biggest moves to get the win, which sounds like the kind of performance that makes a new champion

There were several other title changes. Indi Hartwell beat Xia Brookside for the Knockouts World title. Shayna Baszler and Zoey Serrano beat Allie and Kiera Hogan for the Knockouts Tag titles. Amazing Red won a seven way match for the vacant X-Division title, beating Rich Swann, Ryan Nemeth, Cedric Alexander, Fabian Aichner, KC Navarro and BDE

Jason Hotch won the International title against Mustafa Ali, John Skyler and Special Agent 0. Frankie Kazarian won the 21 man Call Your Shot Gauntlet in 34:34, his third win in a row. That gives him a title shot whenever he wants it, which always makes for interesting television

Elsewhere, Moose beat Max Caster in Caster's TNA debut in 11 minutes. Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw beat the Hardys in a Falls Count Anywhere match, and Ricky Sosa beat Eddie Edwards in the opener. It was a busy card with plenty of new champions

Slater's win is the big story, though. He has been one of the most exciting high flyers in wrestling for a couple of years, and TNA has trusted him with its top prize. A young British world champion is a great sign for the company's future

Did TNA make the right call with Slater? And who do you want to see challenge him first?

Be excellent to each other
