A former WWE star has reportedly re-signed with TNA Wrestling, with details emerging on his future.
As was first reported by ESPN host Skubie Mageza, AJ Francis – fka Top Dolla in WWE – has re-signed with TNA Wrestling in a deal which will see him remain with the promotion for the rest of 2026.
Mageza shared the following on Twitter:
Former Maryland Terrapin, and NFL Defensive Lineman, A.J. Francis has re-signed with TNA for the remainder of 2026.
He said a major reason behind his decision is the continued exposure and growth of the partnership between TNA & AMC.
With TNA Wrestling since confirming this re-signing, AJ Francis has now shared a “TNA re-signs AJ Francis” graphic with the caption:

Francis previously wrestled for WWE as Top Dolla, with the former NFL athlete signing with the company in January 2020, and making his TV debut on NXT in May 2021.
After moving to SmackDown with the rest of the Hit Row faction, Francis was let go by WWE in November 2021. He returned in August 2022 and remained with the company during his second run until September 2023.
Francis made his TNA Wrestling debut at the January 13, 2024 Hard To Kill event, and has since went on to hold the company’s Digital Media Championship.
