Mustafa Ali Returns to TNA – Mustafa Ali has officially returned to TNA Wrestling, announcing his new contract with the promotion during the January 23 live episode of iMPACT Wrestling.
Ali made his comeback by interrupting Mike Santana during a promo, revealing that he has signed a long-term deal with TNA. Ali’s return brings renewed excitement, especially given his impressive run with the company in 2024.
Last year, Ali made a major impact during his TNA stint, wrestling 20 matches and winning the X-Division Championship in his debut at No Surrender. He defeated Chris Sabin to claim the title and held it until July, when he lost it to Mike Bailey at Slammiversary. Ali’s final appearance during that run came on the August 1 episode of Impact, where he unsuccessfully challenged World Champion Nic Nemeth.
For his return, Ali has continued using the politician-inspired persona he developed following his WWE departure in 2023. His sharp mic skills and distinctive character work add a unique dynamic to the TNA roster.
The January 23 Impact also featured another major development with Steph De Lander crowned as the new Digital Media Champion. De Lander introduced her boyfriend, Mance Warner, in a dramatic segment that tied into the “23” vignettes teased in recent weeks.
With Ali back and a strong roster filled with compelling storylines, TNA looks poised to continue delivering exciting action in the coming months. Fans can expect to see Ali making waves as he re-establishes himself in the promotion.
