TNA Hard To Kill Drew Solid PPV Buys – Earlier this month, TNA Wrestling made its triumphant return, rebranded during the Hard to Kill pay-per-view event held at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada. The event garnered attention and success, particularly in PPV buys.
Noteworthy Debuts
The show featured notable debuts, introducing former WWE stars Dana Brooke, Nic Nemeth (Dolph Ziggler), and Xia Brookside to the TNA Wrestling roster. Their presence added a fresh dynamic to the promotion’s lineup.
Main Event Upsets
In the main event, Alex Selley lost the World Heavyweight Title to Moose, creating a significant shift in the championship landscape. Additionally, Trinity dropped the Knockouts title to Jordynne Grace, signaling her likely return to WWE after concluding her stint with TNA.
PPV Success and Potential Milestone
Wrestling Observer Radio’s Dave Meltzer shared insights, suggesting that the Hard to Kill pay-per-view likely achieved its biggest buys since the Impact World Title match in 2021’s Rebellion, where AEW’s Kenny Omega triumphed over Rich Swann. The final PPV buy numbers are eagerly anticipated, with expectations of surpassing previous benchmarks. The full details are set to be released in two weeks.
“The TNA Hard To Kill show did great. Right now, this is basically a week and a half out, so this number will grow. But it was at 8,000 on television, which is a really good number for TNA. I’m sure it’s the biggest number that they’ve done since the Rich Swan-Kenny Omega match. And it actually has a fairly decent shot, I don’t know about beating that one. But being in the same realm as that one. And it’s possible that it could be the biggest since the Spike days, certainly already the third biggest since Spike days. The fact that they did this on a night that was against the NFL playoffs against [NJPW] Battle in the Valley, although they were not head to head completely with Battle in the Valley like the last hour, I think of TNA in the first hour of Battle in the Valley, we’re head to head, but they were completely head to head with [AEW] Collision. So, to do a number that big against that football game and Collision and Battle in the Valley. I think that’s great. There’s no other way to put it. That’s great.” Meltzer stated.
