TNA President Carlos Silva took part in a "Town Hall" that streamed for TNA+ subscribers last night. Highlights:
TNA+ VIP Membership "Being able to get exclusive content around the pay-per-view is a big deal for VIP members—it's almost like a director's cut that you can't get anywhere else. Getting early access to programming windows before regular members, original shows, podcasts, merchandise benefits, coupons, early access to exclusive merchandise, ticketing benefits with early buying windows, plus VIP content, experiences, and giveaways are all part of the membership. It's a great package."
Surprises at Sunday's Lockdown PPV "We haven't done Lockdown in 10 years, so there are absolutely going to be some great surprises. The fans are going to get wild moments and 'Oh my god, I can't believe it' reactions. Overall, the show is going to be super fun, exciting, and full of surprises."
The Next Business Opportunity for the Company "We are building the foundation of TNA. Next year marks 25 years. There have been ups and downs, but right now we're on a big up with AMC in the States, Sportsnet in Canada, Warner Brothers in India, and Claro in Mexico and South America as we continue to expand. The next opportunities are in Europe, Asia, Australia, and around the world to ensure TNA is seen by as many new fans as possible. What we've built on AMC has given us the gasoline in the tank helping us go, and over the next year or two, we'll see that expansion into the rest of the world."
Potential New Signings "Like any big sports team, you're always evaluating your talent, and the talent is always evaluating you. It's a two-way street. We've established a great relationship with our talent and communicate with them all the time. When people take new opportunities, it opens the door for others to come in. We've got new signings, including a few to be announced shortly that you've seen. We've announced some over the last couple of weeks and will continue to look at the roster, improve it, and bring in new talent all the time. I'm excited about the future; a lot of people are calling us to join TNA."
A Potential NYC Return "New York City last year at UBS Arena was one of our biggest shows ever—it was an amazing Slammiversary. We looked to go back this year, but there was a lot of noise and traffic around the East Coast with the World Cup. As a result, we went to Boston and had a great Slammiversary there. We are looking at New York and are very close to going back in 2027. As soon as things are finalized, we'll let all the fans know—and we'll probably let the VIP members know first."
Silva's Proudest Moment of 2026 "My proudest moment so far this year was at the beginning of January when we launched on AMC. It's not just the launch date itself; everyone backstage and all the talent work so hard in the ring. Being able to move to AMC and reach millions of homes every Thursday night—having iconic movies lead into TNA at 9:00—allows a bigger audience to see the hard work our wrestlers do. Seeing full arenas and the television audience grow makes me happy. Our job is to give everyone a bigger audience, and that makes me very proud."
