More On TNA iMPACT! Live, Maria, SD!'s Move, McCool, & More

As noted last night here on the website, TNA Wrestling will broadcast the October 23rd edition of iMPACT! live from Las Vegas, Nevada at The Joint in the Hard Rock Cafe & Casino. This will be the company's first broadcast in High Definition. Previously, TNA has only held one edition of iMPACT! live as the March 27th broadcast was live from Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida because of all of the WWE fans in town for WrestleMania XXIV. This will be the first episode of Impact outside of Orlando.

There will be several WWE appearances this week to help promote SmackDown's move to MyNetworkTV. Maria will be at the My13 area at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California on Thursday from 2 PM to 4 PM. Jeff Hardy will be at the Westfield Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, Maryland on Thursday from 2 PM to 4 PM.

WWE is also holding a Block Party in New York City on Friday from 6 AM to 10 AM. It will be held at 1211 Avenue of Americas between 47th and 48th street and will feature appearances from Jeff Hardy, Zack Ryder, and Curt Hawkins.

WWE has made the Beth Phoenix vs. Michelle McCool match for this week's edition of SmackDown a lumberjack match. WWE will tape this week's edition of SmackDown, which will be the premiere on MyNetworkTV tonight from the Resch Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
