The former head of TNA Wrestling has publicly commented on the new domestic TV rights deal his old company announced with AMC this week.

In his weekly column for Uncrowned, Scott D’Amore wrote that he gets asked about TNA a lot and that it doesn’t feel right for him to discuss the day-to-day happenings within the company.

“But I also want to be clear: I will always have a lot of love in my heart for those three initials, and I am happy for the people there. To everyone at TNA today (people I know and people who are new) and to all the people who contributed to the rebirth of TNA over the years: TNA Wrestling — we are f***ing back!”

D’Amore championed the rebranding from Impact Wrestling back to TNA in January 2024 and was relieved of his duties a month later. He now heads up Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling, a Canadian-based wrestling reboot of the former Maple Leaf Wrestling that existed for 60 years.

The TNA/AMC deal begins in January and marks the company’s return to a major cable network in the United States.
