In a groundbreaking move, WWE has announced a multi-year partnership with TNA Wrestling, designed to create crossover opportunities between the two wrestling promotions. This partnership will see NXT Superstars and TNA Wrestling Stars collaborating and appearing across major programming, including NXT on The CW, TNA’s iMPACT!, WWE Premium Live Events, and TNA pay-per-views.
TNA stars such as Joe Hendry and Jordynne Grace have already been integrated into key NXT storylines, significantly boosting the visibility and appeal of both brands. Under the new agreement, wrestlers from TNA and NXT will have the chance to crossover between promotions, offering them increased exposure and opportunities for in-ring development.
“This historic relationship demonstrates that collaboration and competition do not have to be mutually exclusive,” said Ariel Shnerer, Senior Vice President of Content & Distribution for TNA Wrestling and Anthem Sports & Entertainment. “Our partnership allows the TNA Wrestling brand and its incredible athletes to reach a significantly wider audience, while giving WWE and NXT stars an opportunity to cross the line and gain valuable experience as they join forces with one of the most talented rosters in professional wrestling today.”
The deal marks a major shift in the professional wrestling landscape, as WWE and TNA aim to create an exciting new era of collaboration and talent-sharing across their platforms.
