First event | Sacrifice (2005) |
Sacrifice is a professional wrestling event held by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. It was originally held as a pay-per-view event between 2005 and 2014. The first Sacrifice event took place in August 2005. When event names were shuffled by TNA for 2006, the event was moved to May. Sacrifice has had a tradition of being the final round of tournaments. Sacrifice 2005 saw Samoa Joe defeat A.J. Styles to win the Super X Cup. Sacrifice 2006 was the final round of the World X Cup Tournament. Sacrifice 2008 continued the tradition with the finals of the Deuces Wild Tag Team Tournament. Sacrifice 2009 featured Beer Money, Inc. defeating The British Invasion in the finals of the Team 3D Invitational Tag Team Tournament. All events take place inside the Impact! Zone. On January 11, 2013, TNA announced that in 2013 will be only four PPVs, dropping Sacrifice. In 2016, Sacrifice was held as a special edition of Impact Wrestling and the promotion revived it as a monthly special for Impact Plus in 2020.
History
The inaugural Sacrifice event took place on August 14, 2005, at the TNA Impact! Zone in Orlando, Florida. On the third Sacrifice, which took place on May 13, 2007, at the Impact! Zone in Florida, Kurt Angle became the inaugural TNA World Heavywight Champion, by defeating Christian Cage and Sting in a three-way match. Sacrifice remained a regular TNA's pay-per-view until the last event at the time, which took place on April 27, 2014, at the Impact Zone. On April 26, 2016, TNA filmed a special televised Sacrifice event at the Impact Zone, which aired on tape delay on April 26. On 2017, after Anthem Sports & Entertainment purchased a majority stake of TNA, Anthem re-branded TNA as Impact Wrestling.
On January 29, 2020, Impact retrieved the Sacrifice event as a monthly special for Impact Plus, where the event itself took part on February 22, at the Davis Arena, in Louisville, Kentucky. Since of April 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, Impact had to present the majority of its programming from a behind closed doors set at Skyway Studios in Nashville, Tennessee. The 13th Sacrifice event, which took place on March 5, 2022, at the Paristown Hall in Louisville, saw the return of live attendance.
