Impact Wrestling will return to the TNA (Total Nonstop Action) name in January 2024. The change will become official at the company’s Hard to Kill pay-per-view on January 13, 2024.

The promotion was bought out by Anthem in early 2017 after turbulent years under Dixie Carter, Billy Corgan, and Jeff Jarrett. TNA completely rebranded as Impact Wrestling in March of the same year. As of January 13, 2024, the promotion will rebrand itself as TNA.

The news was announced during Impact’s annual Bound for Glory event, the biggest pay-per-view on the Impact calendar, and will now be the last under the current Impact Wrestling branding.

The announcement for the rebrand of IMPACT Wrestling back to Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA).

The new 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!, every Thursday night on AXS TV (8 p.m. EST).

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. 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 12 noon EST. The Q&A will include questions from worldwide pro wrestling media.

TNA Wrestling launched in the summer of 2002 and has long been known as the most innovative company in the world. TNA is known for its high-risk, action-packed X Division matches that have run with one simple motto: It’s not about weight limits; it’s about no limits. Stars of the X Division have included Chris Sabin, with a record 10 title reigns; A.J. Styles, the first-ever champion, along with Jay Lethal, Samoa Joe, Christopher Daniels, Petey Williams, Frankie Kazarian, and Trey Miguel, among others.

TNA is also the home of the prestigious Knockouts Division, widely regarded as the best women’s division in all professional wrestling. The Knockouts Division features Trinity, Deonna Purrazzo, Mickie James, Jordynne Grace, Gisele Shaw, Masha Slamovich, KiLynn King, Jessicka and Courtney Rush. Legendary past Knockouts include Gail Kim, Awesome Kong, The Beautiful People, Taya Valkyrie, ODB, Tara, Traci Brooks, and many others.

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 https://impactwrestling.com/
