WWE/TNA
In January 2025, WWE and TNA Wrestling announced a multi-year partnership to create unprecedented opportunities for the stars of both companies and the fans.
Since then, fans have seen various talents from each roster showing up in the opposite promotion, including the likes of Jordynne Grace and Joe Hendry showing up in last year’s Royal Rumble.
With the WWE Royal Rumble 2026 event on the horizon, fans could see even more names from the TNA Wrestling roster showing up in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia this Saturday.
Here are eight TNA Wrestling stars to potentially enter the 2026 WWE Royal Rumble.
8. Leon Slater

Over the past few months, WWE fans have been introduced to current TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater.
Whether it be challenging Oba Femi for the NXT Championship or teaming with Je’Von Evans against AJ Styles and Dragon Lee on WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, “The Youngest In Charge” has been firmly established as the future of wrestling.
Following his recent strong showing against Carmelo Hayes for the United States Championship on the January 16 SmackDown, it would make a ton of sense to give Slater the spotlight once again at WWE Royal Rumble 2026.
Slater’s awe-inspiring high flying skills and moment making ability could be on full display during the Men’s Royal Rumble this year.
