Last night’s TNA Wrestling PPV “Hard To Kill” marked the company’s rebrand from Impact Wrestling to its original company name. Not since its early six-sided ring beginnings at the Asylum in Nashville had it made such an action packed splash. Las Vegas saw an incredible night of wrestling with the women’s division Knockouts competing in an ultra dangerous Ultimate X match, a crossover with AAA Lucha Libre from Mexico featuring the Mega Champion Hijo Del Vikingo, the possible farewell match of Trinity (formerly known as Naomi in WWE), and capped off by crowning Moose as their new TNA World Heavyweight Champion.
The wrestling world was shocked by the end appearance of Nic Nemeth who fans know as Dolph Ziggler in WWE. Last year during the rounds of WWE cuts before their TKO merger, Nemeth was released from his contract. To many WWE fans, Dolph had always been among the most underutilized talent on that roster. After Nic’s recent appearance in New Japan and his reveal as TNA’s landmark signing, there’s a ton of fan excitement to see what he will do in his new era.
Nic’s first match will be taped today 1/14 in Las Vegas during TNA’s Snake Eyes event and will broadcast at a later date on AXS TV during TNA Wrestling’s usual time slot Thursday nights at 8/7pm CST.
