Frankie Kazarian is staying put in TNA Wrestling. Ahead of tonight’s live episode of TNA iMPACT on AXS TV and TNA+, Kazarian confirmed to PWInsider that he has signed a new deal with the company—cementing his future with the promotion he’s called home for years.

Kazarian, who currently holds the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Trophy, securing him a future TNA Championship match, made it clear that this decision was all about betting on himself and continuing what he started. “I feel great continuing my relationship with this company,” Kazarian said. “In January 2023, I bet on myself. I made the choice to come back here because you can’t tell the story of Frankie Kazarian without TNA. Since then, I’ve seen this company grow exponentially. Now, we’re about to do our first live television broadcast in eight years. It’s an exciting time to be here, and there’s a lot of positive momentum.”

Kazarian isn’t just thinking about his own career—he’s looking at the bigger picture. With TNA rolling into a new era, he wants to be at the forefront of it all. “When we talk about things like live television, new markets, bigger arenas, and our new relationship with WWE, I want to be the one championing all of that. I’ve always expected a lot from myself, the roster, and the management team. They, in turn, expect a lot from me. And because of that, we’ve reached where we are now. TNA Wrestling is hot, and I’m expecting even more growth this year, surpassing last year—arguably one of our biggest years ever.”

Despite everything he’s accomplished, there’s still unfinished business. Kazarian isn’t just here to help lead the locker room—he’s got his sights set on championship gold. “I still have unfinished business here. Since day one, I’ve said I want to be TNA World Champion, and that remains a goal. I take great pride in being one of the last ‘OGs’ in this company. Looking at this roster and management, it’s incredible—we have some of the best talent in the world. I’ve been here since nearly the beginning, alongside guys like Eric Young. That longevity means a lot to me.”

As TNA prepares for its first live episode of iMPACT in years, Kazarian says the energy behind the scenes is at an all-time high. “It’s overwhelmingly positive. Since the rebranding and relaunch of TNA Wrestling, the excitement has been endless. This locker room is filled with amazing young talent, and this is just another step in the company’s evolution. Everyone is ready to take on the challenge of live TV, bigger venues, and a potential better distribution deal. We have incredible things planned—some of which are known, and some that are still unknown. Everyone is psyched and ready for tonight, which kicks off what’s sure to be a huge year for the company.”

Kazarian’s new deal ensures he’ll be part of TNA’s ongoing resurgence, and with the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Trophy in hand, a shot at the TNA World Championship is inevitable. Whether 2025 will be the year he finally claims the top prize remains to be seen, but one thing is clear—he’s not slowing down anytime soon.
