TNA Wrestling Signs McKenzie Mitchell – TNA Wrestling has announced the signing of McKenzie Mitchell as the company’s new ring announcer. The news was first reported by Sports Illustrated and later confirmed by TNA.
Mitchell is no stranger to TNA, having worked as an on-screen personality and backstage interviewer for three years before joining WWE in September 2019. During her time with WWE, she became a familiar face as a digital host and interviewer on NXT and other programming. However, she parted ways with the company in late 2023.
Her return to TNA began at Genesis on January 19, 2025, in Dallas, where she reprised her role as a key presence on-screen. Now, with her official signing, she is set to take on a new responsibility as the promotion’s lead ring announcer.
