Production
Background
On October 21, 2023, at Bound for Glory, Impact Wrestling announced that the 2024 Hard To Kill would take place on January 13, 2024, at the Palms Casino Resort in Paradise, Nevada. At the same time, Impact announced that it would revert to its original Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) name beginning with the 2024 Hard To Kill.[1][2]
Storylines
The event will feature several professional wrestling matches, with results predetermined by TNA. Storylines are produced on the company's weekly program, Impact!.[3]
At Bound for Glory, Jordynne Grace won the Call Your Shot Gauntlet to earn the right to challenge for any title of her choice. After the match, Grace stated that she will challenge for the Impact Knockouts World Championship at Hard to Kill. Later in the night, Trinity successfully defended the Knockouts World Championship against Mickie James, setting her up to face Grace at Hard To Kill.[4][5]
At the same Bound for Glory event, backstage, Gia Miller was interviewing Moose after his Monster's Ball match. Moose then stated that he would cash-in his Feast or Fired contract and challenge for the Impact World Championship at Hard to Kill. In the show's main event, Alex Shelley retained the world title over Josh Alexander, meaning for now he will face Moose at Hard To Kill.[4][5]
