2026 has been a busy year for WWE departures, with over 50 stars exiting the company across the main roster, NXT and Evolve.
We have seen many of these names already make a splash elsewhere, including several former WWE Tag Team Champions, with The New Level (New Day) and Motor City Machine Guns arriving in AEW and TNA acquiring Joseph Sawyer & Samuel Shaw (Joe Gacy & Dexter Lumis).
Sawyer and Shaw may not be the last team to join up with TNA before the end of 2026 however, as the following three teams are still available and would all make for worthwhile additions to the roster.
Here are two former WWE tag teams to potentially join TNA Wrestling:
The Creed Brothers
The most recent pair of WWE departures was confirmed last week, when it was reported that Julius and Brutus Creed and WWE had parted ways following the expiration of their contracts.
After a memorable run in WWE NXT, The Creeds arrived on the main roster in late 2023 with a boatload of potential, but things never quite clicked for them as babyfaces or heels.
They struggled to build a real connection with the WWE audience, and their opportunities to do that became fewer and further between, especially after their former American Made stablemate Chad Gable went down with a shoulder injury in the summer of 2025.
Now that they’re officially free agents it will be interesting to see whether they continue their pro wrestling careers and move to a different promotion, or potentially branch off into another form of competition.
If The Creeds are to go anywhere, TNA feels like the most likely destination, as AEW already has a wealth of ex-WWE talent at their disposal and TNA has put a lot of focus on their tag division lately.
Julius and Brutus are still in their early 30s and have a ton of room to grow, so hopefully TNA gives them an opportunity to show a bit more of themselves than what they got in WWE.
Erick Redbeard (Erick Rowan) & Bo Dallas
With Joseph Sawyer & Samuel Shaw (Syx) building off their Wyatt Sicks WWE run in TNA, fans have wondered whether more former members of the group could potentially follow the pair.
Now, technically we have already seen Erick Redbeard (Erick Rowan) align himself with Syx – as he helped them defeat The Hardys at Bound for Glory 2026 – but he has not actually signed with TNA as of right now.
We have also yet to find out what the future holds for the former Uncle Howdy aka Bo Dallas. Dallas has spent the entirety of his two-decade wrestling career with WWE, and even during his time as a free agent in 2021-2022, he didn’t wrestle on the indies or make the move to any other notable promotions.
It’s hard to tell whether he will do things differently this time around, but so far there’s yet to be any sign of movement from the former NXT Champion.
Redbeard and Dallas joining TNA could present the promotion with an almost fully reformed Wyatt Sicks group; a potentially terrifying prospect for the rest of the TNA roster.
