Filming, however, would become postponed due to the legal issues between then TNA President Billy Corgan and the company.[4] Corgan would lose his injunction on TNA, which had prevented filming of any kind on October 31,[5] allowing filming for Total Nonstop Deletion to commence later that week.[6] During the buildup for Total Nonstop Deletion, Matt Hardy would make a surprise appearance at Ring of Honor's Final Battle, issuing a challenge to The Young Bucks.[7]
