Two Matches Announced For Impact Hard To Kill

After Impact Wrestling's Turning Point on Saturday night in Las Vegas, two matches have been announced for the Hard to Kill pay-per-view on January 8.

The Impact Knockouts title will be on the line at Hard to Kill, as champion Mickie James defends her belt against the woman she defeated for the title, Deonna Purrazzo.

After James retained the gold over Mercedes Martinez at Turning Point on Saturday, she was attacked by Purrazzo, who spiked her with a piledriver. Purrazzo vowed to regain the title at Hard to Kill.

James won the Knockouts title (her fourth) at Bound For Glory on October 23, ending what was a 343-day reign for Purrazzo.

Also announced for Hard to Kill is a women's Ultimate X match, the first such match in Ultimate X's 18-plus year history to feature women participants.

No names have been announced for the match yet, nor have any stakes been revealed.

The current card for Impact Hard to Kill, taking place Saturday, January 8 at The Bomb Factory in Dallas, is as follows:

* Impact Knockouts: Mickie James (c) vs. Deonna Purrazzo

* Knockouts Ultimate X: Participants TBA
