With a busy Summer in professional wrestling already heating up, TNA Wrestling could be on the hunt for some hot new talent.
From stars that have recently departed AEW to others who are working on making new names for themselves since leaving WWE – there are quite a few free agents that TNA could be interested in.
Here are seven potential TNA Wrestling signings that could be revealed soon.
7. The Righteous
After having been granted their releases from AEW and ROH, the pair have not wrestled in any matches together on the indie scene – perhaps suggesting that they are poised for a debut elsewhere sometime soon.
While a cryptic vignette was released while Vincent and Dutch were still members of the AEW roster that seemed to suggest they would be joining up with former WWE star Elias (known as Elijah) – it was later clarified that Elijah had not signed with AEW.
Rather, he has since been revealed to be signed with TNA Wrestling – and now the Righteous have been granted releases.
Perhaps subject to a non-compete, it isn’t exactly known when The Righteous will be free to return to TV in another company but with Karrion Kross also teasing a possible alliance with the duo – they seem to be headed for big things somewhere.

6. Shayna Baszler
Recently being released from WWE, Shayna Baszler remains a viable threat to whatever opponents she may be set to face in the future.
With a legitimate MMA background, Shayna Baszler use a chance to re-start in the TNA Knockouts division to return to her dominate “Queen of Spades” persona from NXT.
Able to immediately challenge Tessa Blanchard or Masha Slamovich, Baszler could have the chance to shine in TNA Wrestling in a way that wasn’t afforded on the WWE main roster.
Active since departure in GCW’s Bloodsport – hopefully Baszler finds a new landing spot for her vicious talents very soon.

5. Elayna Black (Cora Jade)
Former NXT star Elayna Black (Cora Jade) has hit the ground running, booking numerous independent dates for the Summer and doing her first official post-departure interview with Ariel Helwani.
Since the Knockouts division in TNA Wrestling continues to thrive, bringing in new talent as of late – Black would be an ideal addition to the roster.
After already having appeared in TNA Wrestling during crossover with NXT, she is certainly familiar with Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich already!
Black shared during her interview with Helwani that she would be open to signing with AEW – so the former

4. Danhausen
While Danhausen remains signed with AEW, he has not been featured on TV in a very long time.
However with the news that Danhausen’s AEW contract will be up in July 2025 – there seems to now be a potential target date for when fans could see the star again.
With the ‘Very Nice, Very Evil’ star a fan favorite – it would make complete sense for another promotion to be anxious to swoop him up – potentially TNA Wrestling or even WWE NXT.
While it remains to be seen what the future holds for Danhausen, hopefully he gets a chance to continue to entertain soon.

Since being released from WWE NXT, the former Jakara Jackson has taken the opportunity to re-brand.

While she also debuted her new in-ring name, Mara Sadè, she has confirmed that in addition to working on her influencer career – she will be taking pro-wrestling bookings.
With the TNA Knockout’s Division cultivating young talent – like the recently signed Myla Grace – TNA could be the perfect place for Sadè to continue her pro-wrestling journey.

2. Duke Hudson
After having been released by WWE, the former Chase U MVP is now wrestling under the single moniker – Duke.
While he hasn’t competed in a lot of in-ring efforts since his departure, it seems highly likely that the captivating star will turn up in another promotion soon.
Having released a series of intriguing vignettes, it seems that Duke is not done with pro-wrestling yet – and rather still has a lot of creative talent to share.
Potentially able to join multiple storylines on TNA Wrestling – Duke would be an iconic addition to the current roster as the promotion looks to replace stars like Joe Hendry that could be moving on after their current contracts end.

1. Shotzi
With the TNA Wrestling and WWE NXT partnership already having featured some concurrent storylines between the two sets of rosters – Shotzi would make complete sense to appear over in TNA.
Also making a post-departure appearance on the MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, Shotzi revealed that she was definitely going to continue her career in professional wrestling.
Already getting back into in-ring action, Shotzi was recently made a surprise appearance at a GCW show and is set for more dates with the promotion this Summer.
Definitely with still a lot to contribute – perhaps Shotzi will take her talents to TNA Wrestling in the near future.
