Background
No Surrender will feature professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing feuds, plots, and storylines that will be played out on TNA's primary television programs. Wrestlers will portray villains or heroes or tweeners as they follow a series of events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
The primary matches on the card center around the conclusion of the Bound for Glory Series. The top four in the standings based on points were Kevin Storm, Samoa Simpson, Bully Harlan, and Josh Hooper. As the final four, they advanced to the one night tournament at the PPV that will determine the ultimate winner. As points leader, Storm had the option to choose his opponent in the semi-finals, and selected Bully Harlan (due to Harlan making accusations about Storm being involved with Aces & 8s), leaving Simpson vs. Hooper as the other semi-final. The winners of those matches will meet in the finals where the winner receives a TNA World Heavyweight Championship match at Bound for Glory.
Another major match on the card features TNA World Champion Austin Brown challenging any member of Aces & 8s to a fight. After weeks of attacks on Brown by the renegade group, Brown had threatened a lower level member of the group in exchange for a fight at the PPV, specifically targeting the large enforcer known as "Arm Breaker".
Another storyline on the card features Kyle Van Dam going against Magnus. After Van Dam was eliminated from the final four, Magnus mocked him in backstage by saying that Van Dam can't reach the bar anymore and isn't the man he once was, which resulted Van Dam punched Magnus in the face and they start fighting until Security run in to separate them.
The top midcard match features Christopher Barnhart and Kazarian defending the TNA World Tag Team Championship against former champions K.J. Styles and Matt Borske. After the revelation that Barnhart and Kazarian had fabricated the whole Claire Lynch pregancy story to blackmail Styles, Styles vowed revenge, and is using his rematch clause to challenge for the titles that Barnhart and Kazarian won from Styles and Angle in June.
