Former IMPACT World Champion Josh Alexander is looking for a fight at TNA Hard to Kill, and hopes that Alex Hammerstone will give him exactly that.

Hammerstone, a former MLW World Champion, is currently a free agent after finishing his time with the promotion. Earlier this week, Hammerstone issued an open challenge to anybody in wrestling to come and face him.

Taking to Twitter, Josh Alexander spoke about his difficult 2023, and what's to come in 2024.

"Today is a good day. And it feels good to say that because 2023 was not kind to me. I suffered injury after injury. I lost that thing that I fought so hard to earn and keep in that IMPACT World Championship. More than all that, I lost a piece of myself somewhere along the way. That thing that makes me special.

"But it's a good day. It's 2024, it's a new year. People are settling resolutions and goals and me? I'm no different. See, I intend on getting that piece back in 2024. And I'm going to do that on January 14th at TNA Snake Eyes when I right a wrong and face, once again, Will Ospreay one-on-one."

The Walking Weapon was happy to accept Hammerstone's open challenge and wants the match to take place at TNA Hard to Kill later this month.

"TNA is returning on January 13th, one day before that. Live on pay-per-view for the world to see. From the Palms Casino in Las Vegas. TNA presents Hard to Kill. I picked up my phone this morning, scrolling through social media and I stumble upon one of these free agents in the pro-wrestling world. This one's different from the rest. Rather than asking or demanding an opportunity, this one's offering one in the form of an open challenge.

"Let me get it out of the way. Alex Hammerstone, I would like to accept your open challenge. I spoke to TNA management already so this match is made, if you choose to accept. And I will give you the opportunity by opening the door here at TNA Wrestling. I will roll the welcome mat all the way down to the ring. You say you're a shark in open waters? Well come face the standard, the Iron Man, the Walking Weapon and let's find out. Because 2024, I'm going to get that piece back that I lost along the way and I am going to be the best pro-wrestler on Earth once again and it starts at Hard to Kill and it starts with you Hammerstone."



TNA Hard to Kill will take place on January 13. The show will mark the official relaunch of TNA after years of being IMPACT Wrestling. Morale within IMPACT/TNA is said to be very high ahead of this monumental relaunch.
