Impact Wrestling announced that Hardcore Justice will take place on the same night as WrestleMania’s first night. This surprised a lot of fans, but now Impact Wrestling might make a bit of a change because of it.
According to John Pollock, Impact Wrestling is considering starting Hardcore Justice much eariler on April 10th. That would avoid a WrestleMania conflict. Right now it appears that they still have a start time set for 8:00 PM EST, directly conflicting with WrestleMania.
An update from IMPACT regarding Hardcore Justice – other options are being discussed, so it’s possible the start time could change. Earlier today I was told by the company it would begin at 8 pm ET. If it stays at 8, it would go against night one of WrestleMania.
A lot of fans wondered what Impact Wrestling was thinking when they announced this event. WrestleMania’s two-night event was confirmed a long time ago. We will continue monitoring this situation here at Ringside News.
