Mike Santana's Contract Expiry Spurs WWE Interest

Mike Santana, the current TNA World Champion, will see his contract expire in July. WWE has expressed interest in signing him, aiming to have him on the main roster by the end of the year and possibly route him through NXT first. Former AEW performer Santana left the promotion in March 2024, signed with TNA, and has become one of its top stars, previously appearing on WWE’s NXT program. Wrestling veteran Matt Hardy noted that joining WWE is likely Santana’s ultimate career goal, adding that many wrestlers aspire to a WrestleMania moment.

The potential move reflects the fluid talent market in professional wrestling, where performers often shift between major promotions such as WWE, AEW, and TNA.
