WWE & TNA Partnership

With the WWE and TNA partnership official announced. What could we possible see take place? Maybe with the upcoming WWE 2K25 set to be released at some point this year (maybe in March), could we see TNA stars be featured in the game, like Day 1, or maybe a DLC pack? Be cool if they added all TNA championships to the game, like:

Current

    - TNA World Championship

    - TNA Knockouts World Championship

    - TNA X Division Championship

    - TNA Digital Championship

    - TNA World Tag Team Championship

    - TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship

It would be cool if they added these championships too.

Retired

    - TNA Legends Championship

    - TNA Global Championship

    - TNA Television Championship

    - TNA King of the Mountain Championship

    - Impact Grand Championship

    - TNA World Beer Drinking Championship

Along with maybe adding TNA Arenas.

But the real question is, what is the plan for WWE and TNA going forward? Also, will these be a better partnership than TNA had with AEW?

It will be interesting to see what they have planned. Maybe we could see some Main Roster stars appear on TNA programming. Like TNA Legend AJ Styles go back home for another appearance.

But also, could we see WWE and TNA create a championship or a few championships to be defended in both championships. Just so many ideas that could take place with the multi-year partnership, and it will be interesting to see what goes does. Such a crazy history they have had in the past, and now the current will be something that we have never seen before with the two companies.

WWE & TNA Wrestling announce multi-year partnership

WWE part of TKO Group Holdings and TNA Wrestling, one of the world’s top wrestling brands and a subsidiary of Anthem Sports & Entertainment, today announced a multi-year partnership aimed at creating unprecedented crossover opportunities within WWE and TNA programming for NXT Superstars and TNA Wrestling Stars.
The agreement will enable talent to garner additional exposure across key WWE and TNA programming, including weekly flagship shows such as NXT – which airs live on The CW – and TNA iMPACT!, select WWE Premium Live Events and TNA pay-per-views, in turn bolstering their in-ring development with exposure to world-class talent and coaching.
“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 response to our collaboration over the past year has been tremendous and both companies have benefited, but the fans have reaped the greatest rewards from this talent crossover and working relationship.”
“We look forward to growing and evolving our partnership with TNA Wrestling and its outstanding group of athletes by creating new opportunities to further the development of our talent and to elevate the viewer experience at home,” said WWE Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative Shawn Michaels.
Former TNA Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace and Joe Hendry frequently appeared on NXT programming in 2024, highlighted by an NXT Championship match featuring Hendry and Ethan Page at No Mercy, and an NXT Women’s Championship match featuring Grace and Roxanne Perez at Battleground.
Many NXT Superstars also crossed the line into TNA Wrestling, including Wes Lee’s short-lived reunion with The Rascalz, Charlie Dempsey and the No Quarter Catch Crew, Riley Osbourne, Dante Chen, Gallus, Arianna Grace, Tatum Paxley, Izzi Dame, Wendy Choo, Brinley Reece and more.
TNA iMPACT! airs on AXS TV and TNA+ in the U.S., in addition to being distributed internationally on TNA+ and other leading broadcast platforms, including Sportsnet 360 across Canada.
In November 2023, WWE and The CW announced a five-year agreement to bring NXT to broadcast television for the first time in its 13-year history.

As announced by WWE on their website, and on X.

Thought's on WWE Tribute to the Troops

I thought that WWE Tribute to the Troops was an amazing idea. Paying tribute to the troops who fought so hard for the United States. But over the years it felt so different. Like in the early days of it, it was held on Military bases, but then it just seem like that went away and they just used regular venues to host the event. WWE would host the final event in 2023. However, the event was not hosted in 2024. Could this be the end of the event, or could it be that they might be revamping it for 2025. Would you like to see it come back and go back to the original format of it being hosted in the Military bases, or do you want it to just be hosted in regular venues, or even yet, do you not want it to come back at all. Please leave your comments below on what you would want to happen to WWE Tribute to the Troops.

A. Come Back and be hosted at Military Bases

B. Come back, but be hosted at Regular Venues

C. Not Come Back at All (And what is your reason why)
