Welcome to Ringside News’ live coverage of Impact Wrestling’s Hard To Kill pay-per-view. The show will start at 8:00 PM EST. Keep refreshing and we’ll include highlights throughout the night.

Tessa Blanchard will face Sami Callihan for the Impact Wrestling Title. This could result in Blanchard becoming the first female to hold that belt. Yesterday’s onslaught of allegations about Blanchard’s behavior caused her to miss yesterday’s media junket.

The X-Division Title just got a face lift and it will be on the line tonight as Ace Austin defends his title against Trey. The North vs. Willie Mack and Rich Swann might not happen as Swann is now injured.

You can check out the complete card below. We’ll kick off the results after the show gets going.
