An Xtreme Pro Wrestling (XPW) reunion show called Cold Day in Hell took place on May 24, 2008, at Aviation Park in Redondo Beach, California.[2] The event was originally going to be called "Hell Freezes Over", but was changed to "Cold Day in Hell".[3]

In June 2007, Big Vision Entertainment, the owners of XPW, worked on MTV's Wrestling Society X which featured many XPW alumni. While working on the project, the company came up with the idea to hold an XPW reunion show.[4] The event was produced by Kevin Kleinrock, Mike Hartsfield, and Kris Kloss. Vic Grimes was originally scheduled to be part of the event but had to drop out due to an injury.[5]

Big Vision Entertainment released Cold Day in Hell on DVD and Blu-ray in January 2009,[6] which included the entire event and its 45-minute pre-show.[7]
