The angle was shot for TV in Japan, but at the same time, Bernard had to give enough time because the match is airing as a TV main event for TNA's upcoming "Global Impact" special in the United States. It's going to be hard for TNA to not air the power bomb with an abrupt jump cut. Additionally, TNA officials obviously have no interest in airing something putting Bernard over their top star.
