TNA IMPACT WRESTLING AND NUVOLARI SIGN NEW DEAL AFTER ITALIAN
SUCCESS
ROME (June 1, 2015): TNA IMPACT WRESTLING and popular Italian
sports broadcaster Nuvolari TV have signed a new deal to extend
their successful partnership.
After a year of high ratings and a first ever live event in
Italy featuring TNA Superstars, IMPACT WRESTLING will continue
to be broadcast in Italy and surrounding territories including
Vatican City, Republic of San Marino, Malta, Capodistria,
Principality of Monaco and Italian speaking Switzerland.
IMPACT WRESTLING will premiere on Nuvolari each Thursday night
at 9pm, with repeats on Sundays at 11pm. Nuvolari will also
broadcast re-runs of 2014 TNA programming every weekday at 6pm,
as well as the 2015 Slammiversary and Bound For Glory special
events.
Fans can watch Nuvolari via digital terrestrial TV, satellite
and live web streaming.
Corrado Azzolini, LT Multimedia Vice President, said: “We are
really happy about renewing TNA IMPACT WRESTLING, which allows
us to broadcast many more amazing matches.
“Our viewers are so excited about this great news and are
looking forward to watching new TNA programming every Thursday,
as well as some of the best action from last year. Nuvolari is
the television channel for TNA IMPACT WRESTLING lovers in
Italy.”
TNA’s Italian announce team of Alessio Di Nicolantonio and
Daniele De Micco added: “We are happy and honoured to continue
as the Italian IMPACT WRESTLING commentators. TNA’s popularity
in Italy keeps growing day by day and the Rome event in
February, hosted by local independent group EPW, was a landmark
event for wrestling in Italy.”
TNA President Dixie Carter said: “Our growth in Italy has been
fantastic and we are delighted that fans will be able to
continue to watch IMPACT WRESTLING on Nuvolari.
“This is a partnership that extends beyond the TV screen to
media and live charity events, one in Rome this past February
alongside Italian sporting legends Giancarlo Fisichella and
Francesco Totti.
“I cannot wait to see what the next year brings for our company,
our Superstars and, above all, our fans in Italy.”
TNA IMPACT WRESTLING is the world’s most innovative experience
in professional wrestling and is currently broadcast in more
than 120 countries around the world. The company recently signed
multi-year deals to broadcast across Africa on SuperSport, the
Indian subcontinent on Sony SIX and Europe with various
prestigious partners.
