Mustafa Ali has officially secured his wrestling future for 2026.
Ahead of TNA Impact’s highly anticipated debut on AMC, Ali revealed in an interview with Denise Salcedo that he has re-signed with TNA Wrestling. Ali described the deal as a major personal and professional win, citing trust, creative freedom, and long-term vision as the key reasons behind his decision.
“I actually want to give you some breaking news here,” Ali said. “Just a few days ago, I officially re-signed with TNA Wrestling. TNA, Mustafa Ali, AMC. Breaking news: I have re-signed, and I’m very, very happy with that.”
Ali specifically praised TNA’s leadership team, highlighting the strong working relationship he has developed behind the scenes.
“TNA management—Carlos, Tommy, everybody from top to bottom—has been very supportive,” Ali explained. “I don’t even want to say they ‘see the vision.’ I bring them this idea, and there’s just so much trust there. I feel like I’ve earned it, and there is so much trust from them.”
That trust has translated into creative confidence, something Ali has emphasized as a priority at this stage of his career.
While Ali acknowledged the practical realities of providing for his family, he made it clear that money alone was not the deciding factor in re-signing. Instead, he is motivated by maximizing the impact of the remaining years of his in-ring career.
“People bring up cool stuff I’ve done all the time. I’m not satisfied yet,” Ali said. “So to me, the investment and the thought decision wasn’t just, ‘How do I take care of my family?’ but it’s like, ‘How do I make sure that I maximize whatever time I have left in my career?’”
Ali also addressed the reality of time catching up, framing his mindset as a race to make every moment count.
“I’m not the oldest guy out there, but I’m not the youngest either… so I have this thought process of this battle against time.”
With TNA Impact moving to AMC and the promotion entering a new era of visibility, Ali’s re-signing positions him as a cornerstone talent going into 2026. His comments signal unfinished business, creative ambition, and a renewed push to elevate both his own career and TNA’s national profile.
For Ali, this isn’t about revisiting past highlights—it’s about what still lies ahead.
