2026 has been a busy year of comings and goings in TNA Wrestling, with the company seeing several former champions depart for WWE and AEW, whilst also picking up a few names let go by both companies as well such as Zoey Serrano, Fabian Aichner and Kiera Hogan.

With the company right around the corner from their biggest pay-per-view of the year: Bound for Glory on October 11, we could see even more new faces show up and make an Impact.

Here are three AEW stars who could potentially sign with TNA Wrestling.

Scorpio Sky

AEW star Scorpio Sky

Scorpio Sky is a two-time AEW TNT Champion and was one half of the inaugural AEW World Tag Team Champions with SoCal Uncensored.

While we don’t have an exact date or even month of when Scorpio Sky’s AEW contract will be expiring, reports back in June revealed that his deal was coming up soon.

Two weeks later, Sky would seemingly confirm his impending AEW departure, saying he was “focusing on finishing this chapter the right way.”

At 43 years old, it’s difficult to see WWE taking Sky on, even for NXT, despite the former two-time TNT Champion still being more than capable between the ropes.

TNA however, feels like a natural landing spot for Sky. Not only can he reunite with former SCU teammate Frankie Kazarian, but he can help bolster the company’s mid-card by joining the X-Division or International Title picture.

Max Caster

Max Caster has yet to wrestle on AEW television in 2026.

Another former AEW World Tag Team Champion who could be on the move is Max Caster.

‘Platinum Max’ became a true homegrown success story for AEW alongside his former tag partner Anthony Bowens as The Acclaimed.

The duo went from competing on AEW Dark to capturing the AEW World Tag Team Titles to a huge pop inside New York’s Arthur Ashe Stadium at Dynamite: Grand Slam 2022, however, their popularity would eventually wane over the subsequent years.

Caster’s AEW deal, like Bowens, is reportedly due to expire in October, and given that he hasn’t competed on AEW programming all year, it doesn’t appear likely that he’ll be re-signing.

While there is likely more value in Caster signing somewhere alongside Bowens, his former tag partner is reportedly the subject of interest from WWE, so Max may be venturing into free agency on his own.

Certainly an entertaining character packing plenty of charisma, Caster could become a solid mid-card act for TNA Wrestling or perhaps find himself a new tag team partner.

Dralistico

Dralistico is the most recent name to crop up in the news regarding his contract situation, with the La Faccion Ingobernable’s member’s deal said to be expiring soon.

Like Sky, it’s not known when exactly Dralistico could potentially depart, but there is an interesting extra wrinkle to the story: his brother Dragon Lee’s WWE contract is also expiring in the near future.

The fact that both have deals that are expiring soon admittedly casts doubt on a potential TNA move, as it feels likelier that one or the other will jump ship so they can reunite in either WWE or AEW.

However, if, for whatever reason, WWE weren’t interested in Dralistico, there could be an unexpected home for him in TNA. The former CMLL star could certainly land on his feet in the X-Division and get a chance to show more of his skills than he has done in AEW.
