TNA held talks with Nick LoPiccolo during Sunday night's TNA Lockdown pay-per-view over a potential strategic partnership.
LoPiccolo revealed on X/Twitter that he was in attendance for Lockdown in Chicago, Illinois, posting images of himself at ringside and backstage at the pay-per-view. PWInsider has reported that LoPiccolo's RARESTNDRD company was the reason for him being at Lockdown, along with music executive Brandon "Brigante" Marquez and Stone Canyon Pictures' Tarek Tohme, and they held talks with TNA President Carlos Silva.
Those talks revolved around a potential working relationship, including RARESTNDRD possibly helping to raise capital for TNA or making their own investments in the Anthem-owned pro wrestling promotion. Any talks were considered preliminary conversations.
Nick LoPiccolo was previously a sports agent at Paradigm for 17 years until he and the organisation parted ways in January 2026. LoPiccolo's list of clients includes several WWE wrestlers, including CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Damian Priest, and Jade Cargill. LoPiccolo founded RARESTNDRD earlier this year.
Nick LoPiccolo has been active on social media in recent years commenting on professional wrestling, which has included accusations made against Tony Khan and All Elite Wrestling.
