FOX8 RESPONDS TO AUSTRALIAN WRESTLING FANS BY BROADCASTING TNA iMPACT! STARTING APRIL 5TH AT 10PM

Following numerous emails and online petitions from fans, TNA iMPACT! will finally be broadcast in Australia, as Fox8 signs a 12‐month agreement to exclusively air TNA Wrestling’s weekly flagship show. Fans can expect to watch some of the biggest names in wrestling starting 5th April, when the two‐hour show will be screened weekly on Saturdays at 10pm.

TNA Wrestling delivers a distinct brand of high‐risk, athletic entertainment. TNA’s roster includes the biggest names in wrestling today, such as Kurt Angle, Booker T, Kevin Nash and Christian Cage, as well as the hottest new stars in the business: A.J. Styles, Samoa Joe, The Latin American Xchange and the Motor City Machineguns.

TNA features the innovative six‐sided ring and the high flying X‐Division, as well as concept matches such as “Ultimate X,” “King of the Mountain,” “Six Sides of Steel,” “Lethal Lockdown” and “Elevation X,” considered the most dangerous match in professional wrestling.

Up until now, only TNA’s monthly pay‐per‐views have been available to Australian viewers, on PPV event channel, Main Event. However, fans began campaigning for more of the thrilling, non‐stop action from TNA’s renowned six‐sided ring. In response to audience demand, TNA is further expanding it’s presence in Australia with an extra eight hours of programming per month, .

Dixie Carter, President. TNA, commented: “TNA is ecstatic to bring ‘iMPACT’ down under and provide our Australian fans with what they have asked for and what fans in more than 120 other countries are seeing every week ‐ the best professional wrestling program in the world. We’ve been blessed to have the support of many Aussie fans in our six‐year history without the benefit of a TV program, so we are very excited to finally bring ‘iMPACT’ to these loyal, patient fans.”
