TNA is rolling into 2025 with lots of momentum.
In June, Anthem Sports – the parent company of TNA Wrestling – hired former WWE executive Rob Kligman as their Chief Revenue Officer. Kligman quickly made his intentions known, stating that they want to maximize distribution for TNA across both broadcast and streaming platforms.
Just about one month ago, Anthem also hired Carlos Silva to oversee Anthem Sports Group – which includes TNA Wrestling, Invicta FC, and Fight Network – who stated that his near-team focus is to find the best distribution available and sponsorships.
Matt Hardy has repeatedly stated that Anthem/TNA is “actively working on that”, referring to finding TNA a bigger and better platform in 2025.
Tommy Dreamer – who is a producer/agent and park of the Talent Relations department – is echoing the sentiments of many other people coming into 2025 with TNA Wrestling, and that is the company will find themselves in a bigger and better distribution deal this year.
During a recent episode of “Busted Open Radio,” Dreamer laid out his two main visions for TNA in the coming year.
”TNA, I kind of have two bold predictions for. Number one, they will be on a larger television platform come 2025,” Dreamer said. “I think it’s needed and I think it’s trending in the right direction. And my bolder statement is that they have a 10,000 seat arena coming up and close to a 20,000 seat arena, I do feel in 2025 that they will sell more than 10,000 tickets for an event.”

So far, 2025 is off to a great start. The last 2 weeks of 2024, TNA confirmed the Bodyslam report that they would be partnering with Sportsnet in Canada for an exclusive, multi-year deal to air their weekly TNA iMPACT programming.
The company also announced via Sports Illustrated on New Years Eve that AJ Francis had signed a new contract with the company.
