Madison Rayne Addresses Potential TNA Hall of Fame Induction

Madison Rayne says being inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame would be an honor—but she doesn’t need it to feel proud of her legacy.

Speaking on the January 26 episode of the Boots to Boots podcast with Deonna Purrazzo, the five-time Knockouts World Champion addressed the possibility of being inducted after her former Beautiful People teammates Velvet Sky and Angelina Love received the honor at Bound for Glory 2025. Rayne made it clear that she’d welcome the moment if it came.

“Would it be an honor to have all of that work recognized and to be inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame? Yes, absolutely. I would be honored, because TNA—Dixie Carter and Jeff Jarrett—gave me the ball to run with. Not just at that time in my life when I was a 22-year-old kid who didn’t even realize the magnitude of what was being offered to me. It was like walking through the door to the rest of my life.”

She reflected on her time in the company, sharing how much it meant to work with icons she once looked up to—and be part of their TNA debuts. As far as her credentials go, Rayne isn’t shy about what she’s accomplished—but made sure to deliver that confidence with humility.

“I’m not too proud to say I was a huge fan of Victoria and Mickie James back in the day. When they came into TNA, I believe I was the first match for both of them. My résumé there is unmatched, and I say that not with ego, but with a very humble and sincere mindset. My résumé there is pretty incredible.”

Still, Madison Rayne made it clear that whether or not she gets the Hall of Fame nod, her work and her pride in it are already set in stone and someone deciding if she’s worty to be inducted has no bearing on her accomplishments.

“Would I love the opportunity to be inducted into the Hall of Fame? Yeah. But I’ve also realized over the last couple of years that if that doesn’t happen, it doesn’t change everything I’ve done. Someone else deciding whether or not I’m worthy of something like that has no bearing on how proud I am of everything Madison Rayne has done—or how proud my husband and my family are of everything I’ve done.”

Madison Rayne helped define the Knockouts Division during TNA’s most influential years—and whether her name is called at Bound for Glory or not, she’s already claimed her place in the history books.
