Brian Myers re-signs with TNA Wrestling

Brian Myers is sticking around for the new era of TNA Wrestling.

It was confirmed on Tuesday that Myers has signed a new TNA Wrestling contract. Formerly known as Curt Hawkins, Myers has been part of the Impact Wrestling roster since his release from WWE in 2020. He previously had a stint in TNA in 2015.

Myers told Sports Illustrated that re-signing with TNA was an easy decision.

“This is the most fun I’ve had in my entire career,” Myers said. “The past three-and-a-half years, it’s been a perfect fit. I get to be the best version of myself while being a TNA Wrestling star, so this decision was pretty easy for me.”

Impact Wrestling's name change back to TNA officially goes into effect starting with Hard to Kill on Saturday, January 13. TNA is also holding a set of post-PPV television tapings the next night. Myers is set for a big six-man tag match at the tapings, teaming with Moose & Eddie Edwards against Kazuchika Okada, Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin.

Outside of the ring, Myers hosts The Major Wrestling Figure Podcast with Matt Cardona. He also owns the Create-A-Pro Wrestling Academy with Pat Buck.

“With success of the podcast and the success of the toy business, it’s almost like we found a cheat code in pro wrestling,” Myers told Sports Illustrated. “In this business, decisions aren’t always in your hands. You’re not always doing what you want to do. So this outside endeavor is a healthy balance for us, and we get to control it. It took a long time for us to figure out, but it is an incredible source of creativity.”

Myers noted that becoming a World Champion is his goal in pro wrestling.

“Every day I show up to TNA, that is the goal,” Myers said. “But that’s not necessarily my focus–I’m focused on controlling what I can control. That’s my attitude, my work ethic, my performances in the ring, my look, eye-catching gear, all of that. Myself and Eddie Edwards have a really bright future as a tag team, but I’ll never lose sight of the world title. There is nothing I want more professionally. That’s always my goal, and I’m working my ass off to get there.”

Edwards also recently signed a new TNA Wrestling contract. KUSHIDA, Trent Seven, and Leon Slater have been announced as new additions to the TNA roster.
