TNA Wrestling: How to Watch, Roster, Champions, and More (May 14, 2026) Update)

How to watch TNA Wrestling, the weekly TNA iMPACT and PLEs, all the TNA Champions are here. All of this comes from something Mustafa Ali recently said. “Sometimes, you would tell people about TNA, and the first question was: Where can we watch it? That was the number one question. That was the biggest challenge the company faced. I’ve always believed in the locker room, in the talent, and the production team. We just needed to get the right eyes on it.”

This Thursday night, the company debuts its flagship show, iMPACT, on AMC TV, with a potential viewership of 60 million homes in the US. TNA Wrestling finally takes back its rightful place on a major US cable TV channel. It’s time to ensure that no one ever tells Mr. Ali what people have asked him before so many times. Let’s Nygma-dive into the portrait of an absolutely unique company.

A Bit of History

Founded by Jeff Jarrett and Jerry Jarrett in 2002, following the end of World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 2001, TNA Wrestling is a subsidiary of Anthem Sports & Entertainment. From its inception, TNA had been considered the second-largest promotion in the United States behind WWE, a position it would hold for most of the 2000s and early 2010s.

By 2019, the promotion was viewed to have recovered through its sustained international distribution. The purchase by its parent company of AXS TV subsequently began carrying the promotion’s programming. TNA is currently seen as the third-largest wrestling promotion in the United States.

The Shows

After two years of weekly PPVs, in May 2004, TNA introduced its weekly flagship, iMPACT! With the show’s première, TNA introduced a six-sided wrestling ring, which would later be changed to a classic four-sided one. With the AMC era, the name will become “Thursday Night iMPACT.” TNA Xplosion is a secondary weekly show. New episodes premiere on Fridays on TNA+, and are uploaded the following Tuesday to TNA’s YouTube channel.

The company has its “Big Four PLEs,” TNA Genesis, TNA Rebellion, TNA Slammiversary, and TNA Bound for Glory. Slammiversary celebrates the anniversary of the promotion’s first event. TNA Bound for Glory was created to serve as the company’s flagship PPV event, similar to WWE’s WrestleMania. Every month, TNA Wrestling airs a live TNA+ Special Event, like Victory Road or Emergence.

How and When to Watch

Thursday Night iMPACT! airs every Thursday at 9 PM EST on AMC in the USA and Sportsnet in Canada. Replays and additional content are available on AMC Plus in the US. The rest of the world can watch on TNA+.

TNA Xplosion premieres on Fridays on TNA+. It is uploaded on the following Tuesday to TNA’s YouTube channel. All TNA PLEs and Special Events air on TNA+.
