It is the ninth event under the Genesis chronology. Unlike the previous events, this event was not held on pay-per-view (PPV) and instead, like Destination X 2013, Hardcore Justice 2013 and No Surrender 2013, it was featured as a special edition of TNA's weekly broadcast of Impact Wrestling. The first broadcast was dedicated in memory of Mae Young, who had passed away two days prior.
