Saturday night’s Hard To Kill pay-per-view was a massive event for TNA, as not only did they return to the name where they found fame, but multiple former WWE talents debuted for the promotion. The first of these was Top Dolla, who is now going by his real name of AJ Francis alongside DJ WhooKid, with the pair introducing their new single; although, Joe Hendry would interpret this.
This was followed later in the evening by Xia Brookside, who was a participant in the Knockouts Ultimate X match, and Dana Brooke, who was shown in the crowd during the Knockouts Championship match between Trinity and Jordynne Grace. However, the biggest name was saved for last when Nic Nemeth, previously known as Dolph Ziggler in WWE, appeared after the main event to confront new TNA World Champion Moose before hitting him with a superkick and ZigZag.
43-year-old Nemeth signed with WWE in 2004, and except for OVW, their developmental territory at the time, he has never wrestled elsewhere. Still, he recently appeared at New Japan’s Wrestle Kingdom 18 to set up a match with IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion David Finlay and is booked to wrestle Puerto Rican pro wrestling legend Ray Gonzalez at WWC’s Euphoria next weekend, so that will soon change.
