Bound for Glory 2005 was the first annual Bound for Glory professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. It took place on October 23, 2005 from the Impact! Zone in Orlando, Florida. The tagline was "A Time for Greatness". The show was dedicated to Reggie "The Crusher" Lisowski, who died the night before.
Unlike previous TNA pay-per-views (except their first three-hour pay-per-view in November 2004, Victory Road 2004), a paid ticket was made available at the TNA website, which purchased both entry into a pre-show experience on October 22 at a Doubletree hotel near Universal Studios, and priority seating for Bound for Glory, Universal Studios' audience participation policy prohibiting actually charging for admission to the show.
