Every year during the Countdown to Bound For Glory pre-show, TNA Wrestling presents their Hall of Fame ceremony.
In a similar vein to the WWE Hall of Fame, the company has honored some of the all-time greats in the company’s history.
Whether it be in-ring competitors or those working behind the scene, TNA has done a good job of honoring those responsible for what the promotion is today.
Here are seven potential new TNA Wrestling Hall of Fame inductees.
7. AJ Styles
At WWE Royal Rumble 2026, GUNTHER defeated AJ Styles to end the in-ring career of “The Phenomenal One.”
Then on the February 23 edition of WWE Raw, The Undertaker announced that Styles was set to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this April in Las Vegas.
In the past, Styles has stated that he was not willing to be inducted into anyone’s Hall of Fame until his in-ring career was officially over.
Now that he has left his gloves in the ring, it feels like the right time for the “GOAT” of TNA Wrestling to be entered into their hallowed halls months after his WWE Hall of Fame induction.

6. Eric Young
Looking at the current TNA Wrestling roster, there are not many who have the resumè in the company that Eric Young has.
Debuting in the company back in 2004, Young has practically done everything under the sun for the promotion over the course of the past two decades.
The former TNA World Champion is now looking to accomplish one last accolade that he has not achieved and that is becoming a X-Division Champion as well.
Despite still being active on the roster, Young feels more than worthy of a TNA Wrestling Hall of Fame induction this year.

5. Petey Williams
Speaking of Eric Young, he came into TNA Wrestling alongside his faction called Team Canada.
At that time in 2004, the leader or ace of the group had to have been Petey Williams.
Becoming an innovator in the company, Williams was known for his signature Canadian Destroyer finisher and being a stalwart of the X-Division.
Now working backstage as a producer for WWE, 2026 might finally be the right time for Petey to be inducted into the TNA Wrestling Hall of Fame for everything he accomplished during his in-ring career for the promotion.

4. James Storm
When TNA Wrestling first started in 2002, one of the first faces fans saw was none other than James Storm.
The Tennessee native became one of the anchors for the tag team division. He first debuted as one half of America’s Most Wanted alongside Chris Harris.
Then years later, Storm once again took the tag scene by storm with Bobby Roode as part of Beer Money.
A record 14-time TNA World Tag Team Champion and former TNA World Champion, Storm seems like someone who should have already been inducted into the Hall of Fame, but 2026 feels like better late than never.

3. The Hardy Boyz (Matt & Jeff Hardy)
The Hardy Boyz are one of the most iconic and decorated tag teams in the history of the pro wrestling business.
After a legendary run with WWE, Matt and Jeff Hardy made their own legacies in TNA, first separately and then as a unit.
With multiple runs in the company, The Hardys made their return in 2024 and have since become the biggest draws for TNA during this current era of the promotion.
Considering everything they accomplished and their importance to bringing the company to AMC in 2026, it feels appropriate to celebrate The Hardy Boyz and their influence on TNA Wrestling with a Hall of Fame induction.

2. Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin & Alex Shelley)
In 2025, WWE and TNA Wrestling officially announced their multi-year partnership that brought the two companies together for unprecedented crossover opportunities.
Now that WWE stars are allowed to appear on TNA, it means that the company can honor some of their all-time greats that are now on Raw, SmackDown or NXT.
After decades in TNA, The Motor City Machine Guns made the jump to WWE in 2024 and have since become WWE Tag Team Champions for the company.
With multiple reigns as TNA World Tag Team Champions and both men being former TNA World Champions, Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley have earned the right to be called TNA Wrestling Hall of Famers.

1. Bobby Roode
The AJ Styles tribute on the February 23 WWE Raw featured several different names that have known “The Phenomenal One” since their TNA Wrestling days.
Among those stars was Bobby Roode, who is a longtime friend of Styles and a current backstage producer for WWE.
During his time in the company, Roode was a two-time TNA World Champion, six-time TNA World Tag Team Champion and two-time NWA Worlds Tag Team Champion.
With his legacy already cemented, it feels more than right for Roode to join the likes of Kurt Angle, Sting and Abyss as a TNA Wrestling Hall of Famer this year.
