Former AEW Star Returns To TNA Wrestling, Wins Championship

A former AEW star has made their return to TNA Wrestling and won a championship on tonight’s Lockdown show.

Back in September 2025, it was noted that Kiera Hogan had been removed from the AEW roster page, which signified her departure from the company after joining the company back in 2021.

Hogan was written off TNA television back in August 2021 ahead of her arrival in AEW, with Kiera spending most of he last few years in AEW as part of the ROH roster following Jade Cargill’s departure to WWE in 2023 bringing an end to the Baddies stable.

Kiera Hogan Returns To TNA, Wins Knockouts Tag Team Championship

At tonight’s TNA Lockdown pay-per-view, it was noted that Rosemary would be unable to compete in her and Allie’s Knockout’s Tag Team Championship match against the Elegance Brand, with Allie needing a replacement partner for the match.

It was then revealed that Allie’s replacement partner was the returning Kiera Hogan, making her first TNA appearance in five years.

Kiera and Allie would go on to win the match, with the two now officially recognised as the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions.

Following the match, it was confirmed that Kiera Hogan has officially been signed by TNA Wrestling.

Rebuilding TNA’s Knockouts Division

There have been a number of major departures from TNA Wrestling over the past few months, with the company’s Knockouts division also taking a major hit, with names like Tessa Blanchard, Killer Kelly, Dani Luna and Mara Sade all leaving the company.

However, with absence comes opportunity, and there are a number of talented women’s free agents and rising stars that TNA could look to build the future of the division around.

The seeds have already started with Xia Brookside and Elayna Black competing for the TNA Knockouts World Championship on tonight’s show, as well as the first Knockouts TV Champion being either Jada Stone or M by Elegance.

There are also a number of recently departed WWE stars that TNA could look at to add depth to it’s division, with names like Kay Lee Ray, Zoey Serrano (Zoey Stark), Charlie (Dakota Kai) and Nikki Storm (Nikki Cross) all potential great additions to add some star power to the top of the Knockouts division upon their arrival in TNA Wrestling.
