TNA Wrestling is making its long-awaited return to Spartanburg, South Carolina, with back-to-back nights of high-octane pro wrestling action on Friday and Saturday, September 27-28, at the iconic Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium. This historic venue, which once hosted legendary Jim Crockett Promotions events, will once again be electrified by the energy of professional wrestling, marking the first TNA show in Spartanburg since 2012.
Back in 2012, the last TNA event held at this same venue featured epic matches such as Jeff Hardy vs. Austin Aries and a hard-hitting contest between James Storm and Bobby Roode. Now, 12 years later, TNA is returning to its roots with two nights of wrestling taped for the company’s flagship show, iMPACT!, which airs every Thursday at 8 p.m. EST on AXS TV in the U.S. and Fight Network in Canada. Fans in Spartanburg can expect the same high-quality in-ring action that TNA has built its legacy on, with top stars from across the roster in action.
Before the big shows, TNA legends Jeff and Matt Hardy will be in town on September 24-25 to meet with the media and make special appearances around the Carolinas. The Hardys, known for their groundbreaking tag team career and insane ladder match spots, are sure to build excitement for the event, and their media tour will rekindle fond memories for fans who’ve followed their journey over the years.
In addition to the Hardys, the TNA roster is stacked for the upcoming Spartanburg shows. The lineup includes a mix of veteran talent, rising stars, and international sensations, ensuring an unforgettable experience for fans. Some of the major names announced include:
- Nic Nemeth (formerly known as Dolph Ziggler in WWE), bringing his showmanship and technical prowess to TNA.
- Jordynne Grace, the powerful and determined Knockouts division standout.
- Joe Hendry, the charismatic Scottish star known for his unique style and infectious personality.
- Eric Young, a TNA original and multi-time champion who continues to redefine himself in and out of the ring.
- Ash By Elegance, the flamboyant and talented up-and-comer making waves in the wrestling world.
- Moose, a dominant force and former TNA World Champion, always ready to wreak havoc.
Additionally, other exciting talents include Mike Santana, fresh off his time in AEW, Josh Alexander, the hard-hitting former TNA World Champion, and Brian Myers (formerly WWE’s Curt Hawkins), along with Eddie Edwards, Frankie Kazarian, and PCO (Pierre Carl Ouellet). The thrilling tag team ABC (Ace Austin & Chris Bey) will also be in action, as well as breakout star Jake Something, the daredevil “Speedball” Mike Bailey, and British wrestling sensation Xia Brookside.
For fans of professional wrestling, this is a can’t-miss event, offering the chance to see their favorite TNA stars up close and personal.
