TNA Rebellion 2025 will be a historic pay-per-view event for the company with a record attendance and big time matches scheduled.
With the company’s partnership with WWE, the possibility of certain talent “crossing the line” is more likely than ever.
After TNA World Champion Joe Hendry recently teased an appearance from a WWE megastar, this opens the door for a huge surprise to take place in Los Angeles for TNA Wrestling.
Here are seven WWE stars that could potentially appear at TNA Rebellion.
7. Oba Femi
On the April 22 post-WrestleMania 41 edition of WWE NXT, TNA World Champion Joe Hendry made a surprise appearance where he confronted NXT Champion Oba Femi and Trick Williams.
Staking a claim for the NXT Championship, Hendry looked to throw his name in the hat for the top prize on the brand.
With Hendry set to defend the TNA World Championship against Frankie Kazarian and Ethan Page at Rebellion 2025, the post match could see Femi return the favour from NXT.
Oba has appeared on TNA IMPACT earlier this year, so his appearance at TNA Rebellion could be a fun surprise that sets the stage for the two champions to do battle down the line.

6. Natalya
2025 has already been a quite eventful year for Natalya after re-signing with WWE last year.
After seemingly being lost in the shuffle in WWE, the Hart Family member is scheduled to appear for multiple promotions.
Making her debut at GCW Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XIII during WrestleMania 41 weekend in Las Vegas, Nattie Neidhart showed off her own new presentation for herself that could work anywhere she appears.
Natalya showing up at TNA Rebellion could lead to a dream match with the likes of Masha Slamovich or Tessa Blanchard that could further this new evolution for the former SmackDown Women’s Champion.

5. Giulia
On the April 21 WWE Raw After WrestleMania 41, Giulia made a surprise appearance and seemingly turned heel by joining forces with Roxanne Perez to jump IYO SKY and Stephanie Vaquer.
Since returning to NXT, Giulia has had her sights set on regaining the NXT Women’s Championship from Vaquer, but she could possibly make an appearance somewhere else.
The former NXT Women’s Champion should be presented as a force to be reckoned with and could step up to the plate to challenge for the TNA Knockouts World Championship as well.
If Giulia shows up at TNA Rebellion, this could be a major boost for the TNA Knockouts division and get a major player from the NXT women’s division in the company for a little while.

4. Trick Williams
The aforementioned surprise appearance for Joe Hendry saw him join forces with NXT Champion Oba Femi in getting rid of Trick Williams from the ring.
After being disrespected and seemingly skipped over for a NXT Championship match again, Williams snapped backstage and was removed from the arena by GM Ava.
This newfound attitude for Trick could be felt over in TNA Wrestling where he could potentially get a measure of revenge on Hendry.
Trick making an appearance to cost Hendry the TNA World Championship could lead to his official heel turn where his desire to regain the NXT Championship has finally made him go off the deep end.

3. Sheamus
At WWE Royal Rumble 2025, Joe Hendry made his main roster debut as the number 15 entrant in the Men’s Royal Rumble Match.
During his time in the bout, Hendry had a brief interaction with Sheamus where the former four-time WWE World Champion seemed quite impressed by the popular star.
Since this interaction, Hendry has teased doing more work with “The Celtic Warrior” in the near future.
TNA Rebellion feels like a great setting to have Sheamus come out to have Hendry’s back as he faces off with two challengers in the main event.

2. Randy Orton
At WrestleMania 41 Night Two, Joe Hendry answered Randy Orton’s open challenge to a huge pop from the sold-out crowd in Allegiant Stadium.
After picking up the win over Hendry, Orton showed some respect to Hendry before delivering a second RKO to his opponent.
With Hendry defending the TNA World Title against Frankie Kazarian and Ethan Page in the main event of Rebellion, the champion could be in need of someone to have his back if the two heels work together against Hendry.
Orton would definitely fit the bill for a WWE megastar and return the favour to Hendry for giving him his 20th WrestleMania opponent.

1. AJ Styles
Since TNA Wrestling started a working relationship with WWE in 2024, many fans have been asking and speculating about AJ Styles making a return to his former home promotion.
Widely considered the TNA Wrestling GOAT, “The Phenomenal One” spent 12 years in the company and won pretty much every championship made available to him at the time.
The former two-time WWE Champion would be the most satisfying potential appearance of anyone on the WWE roster.
Styles making a surprise appearance at TNA Rebellion could lead to a confrontation with the likes of Moose, Nic Nemeth or even his long time rival Frankie Kazarian to set the stage for his return match back in the promotion at TNA Slammiversary.
