In June 2007, Big Vision Entertainment, owners of XPW, collaborated with MTV on Wrestling Society X, which featured many XPW alumni. This project rekindled interest in the promotion and gave the company the idea to organize a reunion show for the defunct wrestling organization.
Cold Day in Hell took place on May 24, 2008, at Aviation Park in Redondo Beach, California. The event was a reunion show for Xtreme Pro Wrestling, produced by Kevin Kleinrock, Mike Hartsfield, and Kris Kloss. Notable wrestler Vic Grimes had been scheduled to appear but withdrew due to injury.
Big Vision Entertainment released Cold Day in Hell on DVD and Blu-ray in January 2009, including the full event and a 45-minute pre-show, making the reunion accessible to fans beyond the live audience and preserving the event for the XPW fanbase.
