In October 2017, with the launch of the Global Wrestling Network, the event became available to stream on demand.[4]
Storylines
Hardcore Justice featured seven professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[5]
This year, TNA changed the event's name from Hard Justice to Hardcore Justice in honor of the Extreme Championship Wrestling reunion show theme that it adopted. The show was originally going to be main evented by a match between Rob Van Dam and Jerry Lynn. However, the match had to be cancelled when Lynn pulled out due to a back injury. The replacement main event was Rob Van Dam vs. Sabu.[6][7]
