IMPACT Wrestling will revert to its previous Total Nonstop Action (TNA) branding in January 2024.
The transition is to go into effect at Hard To Kill, the company’s first pay-per-view event of 2024. The show takes place on Sunday, January 14th, at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The move came to light on Saturday night as the Bound For Glory pay-per-view came to an end, when a video was aired.
Further details will be revealed on Tuesday, October 24th, when IMPACT Wrestling President Scott D’Amore sits down with Tom Hannifan for an interview that will air live on IMPACT’s Facebook page, starting at 12 noon ET. The company stated that the Q&A will include questions from “worldwide pro wrestling media.”
IMPACT’s corporate owner, Anthem Sports and Entertainment, pushed out a press release late on Saturday night to confirm the switch.
In part, the release states:
TNA will launch 2024 with Hard To Kill on Saturday, January 13, with a second night of action-packed professional wrestling – the “Snake Eyes Extravaganza Show” – at The Palms on Sunday, January 14. The Snake Eyes Extravaganza Show will be taped to air on the company’s flagship weekly TV show, Impact!, airing every Thursday night on AXS TV (8 p.m. EST).
“We still hear the ‘TNA’ chants wherever we go,” said IMPACT Wrestling President Scott D’Amore. “Fans have longed for TNA Wrestling, so that’s what we’re bringing back in 2024: TNA Wrestling, we’re back!”
Tickets for both Hard To Kill on January 13 and the Snake Eyes Extravaganza Show on January 14 will be on-sale on Friday, November 4, at www.Impactwrestling.com
Company officials confirmed that the new year will launch a new-look TNA Wrestling that runs from the entrance ramp to turnbuckles in the ring to larger, more prestigious venues and much, much more. Further details on the TNA Wrestling return will be revealed on Tuesday, October 24, when D’Amore sits down for an exclusive interview with Tom Hannifan that will air live on IMPACT’s Facebook page, starting at 12noon EST. The Q&A will include questions from worldwide pro wrestling media.
