At Least One Former WWE Name To Appear At TNA Hard To Kill

Hard To Kill looks set to feature multiple new names in TNA Wrestling.

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, "the belief among those we've spoken with at TNA is that at least one former WWE name is coming in for Hard To Kill this Saturday in Las Vegas."

One former WWE name already confirmed for Hard To Kill is AJ Francis (FKA Top Dolla) as he and DJ Whoo Kid will premiere their music video, 'We Out$ide', at the January 13 pay-per-view. "One of the biggest signings" in TNA history is also being finalised in time for January 13.

Several former WWE talents officially became free agents in December 2023 after their 90-day non-compete clauses expired. The likes of Mustafa Ali, Nic Nemeth, Emma, Riddick Moss, and Shelton Benjamin were released by WWE as part of major post-UFC merger cuts in September.
