Mara Sadè looks to be signing with All Elite Wrestling.
It was officially announced by TNA that Sadè had finished up with the company and Fightful Select has reported that sources within both TNA and AEW expect her to land in All Elite Wrestling.
Sadè had been a part of TNA Wrestling since the summer of 2025 but her contract expired in July. She performed for TNA without a contract at the promotion's IMPACT tapings on July 31, losing to Heather By Elegance in the quarter-finals of the Knockouts Television Championship tournament.
Fightful noted that TNA increased their offer for Sadè but she looks instead to be AEW-bound. PWInsider has reported that TNA were happy with how she handled herself on the way out and they parted ways on amicable terms.
There was interest in bringing Sadè back to WWE but there is not believed to have been any lengthy conversations about a possible comeback for the former Jakara Jackson.
Mara Sadè already has connections in All Elite Wrestling as she is in a relationship with Kevin Knight. Sadé would just be the latest AEW signing in the summer of 2026, though, as the Motor City Machine Guns made their full-time debuts, with reports noting prior to MCMG's appearance that at least seven wrestlers were waiting to join Tony Khan's promotion.
