"This decision has been years in the making and I'm so excited to announce it is finally happening on January 28."

"We are just a few tickets away from the London show setting a TNA attendance record, so I hope everyone spreads the word. If you are a fan of TNA, this will be one night you won't want to miss."

Barbara Gibbon, Challenge's Head of Channel, added: "It's a wonderful opportunity for Challenge's loyal TNA viewers to see their favourite sports entertainment shows in a UK context for the first time ever."
