Nic Nemeth, Ash by Elegance and more debut at TNA Hard to Kill; Moose is the new World Champion!

Several current and former WWE stars were spotted this weekend at TNA's Hard to Kill Pay-Per-View. The event emanated from the Palms Casino and Resort in Las Vegas.

Hard to Kill was the first pay-per-view for the company after the rebranding from IMPACT to TNA. The show featured major stars such as Moose, Rhino, Chris Sabin, Kushida, Brian Myers, Trinity (fka Naomi), and many more.

Nic Nemeth (fka Dolph Ziggler) showed up after the main event, where Moose defeated Alex Shelley for the TNA World Championship. Nemeth confronted the champ before hitting a superkick and a Zig Zag. He then proceeded to celebrate with the crowd.

Another former WWE star, Dana Brooke, also made an appearance during the Knockouts match between Trinity and Jordynne Grace. TNA introduced her as Ash by Elegance. Mercedes Mone and WWE's Damage CTRL member Bayley were also spotted watching the action from the stands.
