Throughout the course of 2025, TNA Wrestling has not been shy about acquiring talent to fill out spots on their roster.
Whether it be former WWE stars like Indi Hartwell or independent prospects like Myla Grace and Harley Hudson, the company has been active in the free agency market.
Considering the current landscape of the free agents, there are plenty more stars who could be signed in the weeks and months to come that could make an immediate impact.
Here are eight TNA Wrestling debuts potentially coming soon.
8. Cedric Alexander
Back in February, WWE released a slate of talent, which included former Cruiserweight Champion Cedric Alexander.
Since his departure and the end of his non-compete clause, Alexander has hit the ground running on the independent scene with some notable bookings.
While many fans believed his next destination would be for All Elite Wrestling alongside The Hurt Syndicate, TNA Wrestling looks to be his next home and somewhere he could excel on his own.
Whether it be in the X-Division or potentially propelling to a top spot, it feels like Cedric has a much higher ceiling in TNA Wrestling than anywhere else in the wrestling business right now.

7. Trevor Lee (Cameron Grimes)
Another former WWE star who could make their way back to TNA Wrestling in the near future is Trevor Lee.
After being released from WWE in 2024, Lee has found himself back on the indies where he has been delivering time in and time out thanks to his exceptional in-ring ability.
Being someone who never got the chance to shine on the WWE main roster, the former Cameron Grimes has been working with a chip on his shoulder that could be a benefit for whatever company he signs with next.
Returning to TNA, Trevor Lee could be relied upon to deliver a top notch in-ring performances and help to bolster their roster significantly.

6. Josh Terry (Riley Osborne)
The latest crop of WWE talent cuts occurred on May 2 with over 15 different wrestlers being released.
One of the lesser known names who departed the company was Josh Terry (fka Riley Osborne), formerly part of the Chase U faction.
At just 27 years old, Terry should have his whole career ahead of him and could become an asset for the next company he signs with.
Considering his brief appearances with TNA Wrestling as part of the partnership with WWE, it would make sense for Terry to sign with the promotion to become part of the X-Division should they be interested in him.

5. Duke Hanson (Duke Hudson)
To the surprise of some fans, Duke Hudson was released from WWE back in February after a six year run with the company.
The former Chase U member has a great size and look that benefitted him throughout his lengthy career in pro wrestling.
Since leaving WWE, Hudson, now known as Duke Hanson, has not wasted any time returning to the independent scene.
Hanson signing with TNA Wrestling could work very well where he has enough experience to add some much needed depth to their roster right now.

4. Mandy Sacs (Mandy Rose)
Since being released from WWE at the tail end of 2022, Mandy Rose has not actively competed in the pro wrestling business.
Outside of a few appearances at signings and on the indies, Rose, real name Mandy Sacs, has relatively stayed away from the industry, but she has recently teased a return to in-ring training.
While it is very likely she would return to WWE if they were interested, Sacs could find some new opportunities to grow as a performer in another promotion.
Mandy Sacs heading to TNA Wrestling could put her front and center as the new face of the Knockouts division and bring something new to the table that the company does not have at the moment.

3. Daria Berenato (Sonya Deville)
Another shocking WWE release in 2025 saw Sonya Deville cut after negotiating a new deal with the promotion.
Deville, real name Daria Berenato, has departed the company after a 10 year run, where she performed in a variety of roles.
Showing her versatility and flexibility as an on-screen act, Berenato was an in-ring performer, authority figure and manager at different points of her career.
Now that she is doing commentary for the company’s MMA partner in Invicta FC, it doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibilities to see Daria Berenato make the move to TNA Wrestling where she could play a key role in the Knockouts division.

2. Gallus (Wolfgang, Mark & Joe Coffey)
On May 2, WWE announced its latest slate of talent cuts, which included Gallus who were most active on NXT and Evolve.
Wolfgang, Mark and Joe Coffey had become one of the most prominent stables on NXT UK before making the jump to the main NXT brand.
Despite winning the NXT Tag Team Championships, Gallus were never consistently pushed as a top end stable act on WWE TV.
With prior appearances on TNA IMPACT, it seems likely TNA Wrestling would give a look to Gallus to bring in these veterans into play where they could be pushed in a more significant way than in WWE.

1. Nixon Newell (Tegan Nox)
In November 2024, WWE released Tegan Nox after two up-and-down stints with the promotion.
Plagued by injuries for much of her two runs, Nox had finally found her footing, but she just never were given the opportunities to truly shine as a singles stars throughout her time in the company.
Now that Nox has returned to her Nixon Newell name, it feels like the right time for her to finally be spotlighted in a major promotion wherever that could be.
Newell signing with TNA Wrestling could be a huge boost for the Knockouts division and set up some tantalising matchups with the likes of Masha Slamovich, Killer Kelly or Tessa Blanchard.
