With recent talent losses hitting the roster, TNA needs some big-time heroes to step up at their biggest show of the year. Here are my Top 5 wrestlers who should return or debut at Slammiversary.

Top 5 Heroes TNA Needs at Slammiversary 2026

  • James Storm is the obvious choice. He’s a TNA legend and I’m sure Carlos Silva will bring “The Cowboy” back where he belongs.

  • We haven’t seen Low Ki in a while, but he’s a proven X-Division hero. Bringing him back would instantly add credibility and intensity to the division.

  • Jonathan Gresham should be the hero who helps Mike Santana retain (or win) gold. “The Octopus” is exactly the kind of talent TNA needs right now.

  • Andrew Everett needs to take notice and become the savior TNA is missing. A big return from him at Slammiversary would be a perfect feel-good moment.

  • Sami Callihan: The Death Machine needs to return to TNA at Slammiversary. His chaotic energy and intensity would be exactly what the company needs right now.
