  • AJ Styles Teases Revival of Old Feud In TNA Return

    AJ Styles\’ TNA return might not be one off.

    The former TNA World Champion made his return to the Impact Zone as the company made their debut on AMC. He opened the night and led the fans into a TNA chant after a promo about the new era of the promotion.

    This wasn\’t the end of Styles\’ night, however. Later in the episode, we saw the Phenomenal One coming face-to-face with the current TNA Champion and his former rival Frankie Kazarian in a backstage segment.

    Instead of a warm welcome, however, the current WWE star received some stern words from the fellow veteran. Kazarian said that AJ should thank him for the house, and in response, Styles looked at the world title before uttering the thanks.

    AJ Styles has a long history with both Frankie Kazarian and the TNA World Title, and the little interaction tonight got a big pop from the crowd.

    With the 48-year-old having announced 2026 as his last active year in wrestling, the big question is if we can see him going after the belt one last time before he hangs up his boots.

  • Mike Santana Makes Pointed AEW Reference In Latest TNA Promo

    Mike Santana had an interesting comment.

    The former LAX member is set to challenge Frankie Kazarian for the TNA World Heavyweight title at Impact\’s AMC debut episode on January 15.

    The final episode of the Thursday night show before this move saw the two stars sitting down for a contract signing. During the exchange, Santana brought up both their time in AEW, referring to the company as a place that drained their wrestling passion:

    “At one point in time, we were both at the same place, miserable as all hell. We were at a place that tried to drain the passion out of what we love the most, and what did we do? We held each other up, we left that place, we bet on ourselves and today, we’re sitting across from each other about to go toe-to-toe for the grandest prize in pro wrestling on the biggest show in TNA history!”
