announced

Wednesday huh

Probably in commemoration of them originally being a Wednesday night pay-per-view company.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

It’s funny too because I was saying only a couple weeks ago that this was a really good pay-per-view name that they only use once in 2005 and I really thought that they should’ve continued with it.

 

[Chris]

My calendar still says Thursday lol

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Oh yeah, mine says Thursday too.

So this is just a special named impact then.

No, most likely it'll air at 10 PM after and be live bc it's Vegas so that's 8 PM there. Otherwise I think it would be branded as a live Impact already like the Full Sail show. They've done this before with a Multiverse show over Mania weekend

TNA Unbreakable Comes to Las Vegas, NV on April 17​

For the first time in 20 years, it’s back! TNA Wrestling presents Unbreakable streaming LIVE April 17 on TNA+ from the Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas, NV.

This appears to be the case. The TNA site lists it as a TNA+ show and voices of wrestling lists the start time as 7pm local (10 eastern…right after Impact) on their WrestleMania weekend guide. I couldn’t find a start time anywhere yet and assumed it would be confirmed when presale starts Wednesday….but they say it’s 7 and they look a lot harder for it than I would.

btw…their guide on that weekends shows is consistently updated when new shows or talents booked for them or announced matches happen. Highly recommended if you are into watching the tons of shows that exist that weekend.

TNA Wrestling Presents “Chris Bey, All Day” To Celebrate, Honor & Fundraise For Multi-Time Champion Chris Bey​

Press Release / April 10, 2025 / by TNA Wrestling Staff

Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys Tickets​

TNA Wrestling announced today that its Unbreakable live event on Thursday, April 17, from Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas will feature a full day of events to spotlight Chris Bey, who suffered a broken neck last October 27, during a match in Detroit, Michigan.

The festivities to celebrate, honor and fundraise for Chris Bey – fittingly called, “Chris Bey, All Day” – will kick off April 17 with the first-ever “Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys” at Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas, a special two-hour event starting at 10 a.m. local time. TNA announcer Tom Hannifan will host the intimate gathering for a limited number of fans, many of whom will have the opportunity to ask questions of the reigning TNA World Tag Team Champions, Jeff & Matt Hardy.

The “Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys” will stream live on TNA+.

Chris Bey will make an appearance at the “Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys.”

Attendees at the “Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys” will receive a limited-edition 11×14 photo featuring Bey, The Hardys and more – and other TNA stars will attend the two-hour event. Attendees will have the chance to enjoy Bey’s favorite cookies, which he calls “Cream Betweens.”

Admission to the “Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys” is $50 – and all proceeds will be donated to Bey. To purchase tickets to the “Breakfast Q&A With The Hardys,” go to: tnamerch.com.

When Unbreakable kicks off live on the TNA+ app starting at 7pm local time, fans will notice that all TNA personnel – including wrestlers, referees, announcers and others – will for the first-time ever wear a new Chris Bey Shirt. All worn Chris Bey/Unbreakable Shirts will be auctioned on TNA’s eBay page – and all funds will be donated to Chris Bey.

“We are incredibly proud of the progress Chris has made and continues to make,” said TNA Wrestling President Carlos Silva. “We are incredibly excited for ‘Chris Bey, All Day,’ as wrestling fans worldwide can unite in support of one of the most inspirational wrestlers of all time.”

Bey made his pro wrestling debut in 2017 and made his first TNA Wrestling appearance in late-2018. During his run in TNA, Bey is:

• A three-time TNA World Tag Team Champion with Ace Austin
• A TNA X Division Champion in 2020
• A three-time TNA Year-End Award-winner
• One to Watch in 2021
• Male Tag Team of the Year (2023, 2024) with Ace Austin

Unbreakable Six-Man Tag Team Match Will Set the Stage for Rebellion​

As The Hardys prepare to defend the TNA World Tag Team Titles against Nic and Ryan Nemeth at Rebellion, another opportunity for revenge has been revealed.

As TNA makes its presence felt in Las Vegas during the biggest week of the year in professional wrestling, The Hardys and The Nemeths will find themselves on opposing sides of a six-man tag team match at Unbreakable.


Uniting with The Hardys will be Mike Santana, while his bitter rival Mustafa Ali joins forces with Nic and Ryan Nemeth. Santana and Ali are also set for an emotionally-fueled rematch just days 10 later at Rebellion. Which team will reign supreme?

Barbed Wire Massacre Returns at Unbreakable As Sami Callihan & Mance Warner Settle the Score​

For only the sixth time in TNA history, we will bear witness to one of the most extreme, hardcore and dangerous matches – Barbed Wire Massacre.

For months, Sami Callihan and Mance Warner have been at each other’s throats, attacking, assaulting and mauling each other at every turn. A brutal Street Fight at Sacrifice was not enough to settle their score – and now, there must be more. After their match in the TNA International Championship Tournament turned to chaos, Director of Authority Santino Marella demanded that they finish what they started once and for all – in Barbed Wire Massacre at Unbreakable.


With no disqualifications, no count-outs and no shortage of barbed wire weaponry, Sami Callihan and Mance Warner are sure to tear each other apart. And while one man will win the match, neither will leave Las Vegas unscathed.

Champions & Challengers at Rebellion Collide in Big-Time Tag Team Bout at Unbreakable​

TNA’s spring pay-per-view extravaganza, Rebellion, will host two must-see World Championship matches: Despite his doctor’s advice, Joe Hendry will defend the TNA World Title against Frankie Kazarian and NXT’s Ethan Page. Plus, Tessa Blanchard will challenge Masha Slamovich for the Knockouts World Title.

But just 10 nights prior, all-important momentum is up for grabs in a tag team clash at Unbreakable: TNA World Champion Joe Hendry will join forces with Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich to battle the team of Frankie Kazarian and Tessa Blanchard. With Rebellion right around the corner, a win here could make all the difference heading into the big event. Will the champions stand tall? Or will the challengers make a bold statement?​
