On Saturday night Impact Wrestling’s Hard To Kill pay-per-view, named because of the number of obstacles overcome to still exist, takes place at Skyway Studios in Nashville. The show has the potential to be one of the most successful events the promotion has put on since rebranding from TNA, and the reason for that is the down to Kenny Omega wrestling in the main event.
Omega became available to Impact after the promotion began a working relationship with AEW, and this played out on television when Omega aligned with Impact’s Don Callis. This led to Omega appearing on Impact on AXS, and an angle would take where Impact’s World Champion Rich Swann, Alex Shelley, and Chris Sabin were beaten down backstage by Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows, and Omega. With the babyfaces down, Don Callis made the six-man tag match official for Hard To Kill.
However, one day before the big show, Impact has now announced that Alex Shelley cannot travel to Nashville. His replacement will be former New England Patriots, St. Louis Rams, and Indianapolis Colt’s player Moose. The former NFL player is currently the (self-declared) TNA World Heavyweight Champion.
Hard To Kill is available to watch globally on through FITE.tv on Saturday, January 16 at 8pm ET/5pm PT. The show also features Eddie Edwards vs. Sami Callihan in a Barbed Wire Massacre match, and Impact Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo defending the title against Taya Valkyrie.
