Mr. Anderson Makes Comeback on TNA iMPACT! After Nearly a Decade

TNA iMPACT! delivered a major surprise on September 18 when Mr. Anderson… Anderson made his return to the company after nearly a decade away.

The two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion appeared during Frankie Kazarian’s “King’s Speech” segment, where tensions escalated quickly. Kazarian mocked Steve Maclin’s military service and took things further by targeting Anderson’s past as well.

The words didn’t sit well with Anderson, who snapped and grabbed Kazarian by the face. Before things could get physical, Jake Something blindsided Anderson, leading to chaos in the ring. Maclin then stormed out and saved Anderson from the beatdown.

This moment marked Anderson’s first TNA appearance since 2016. While he’s stayed busy on the independent circuit, fans never expected to see him back in the Impact Zone—especially aligned in any way with Steve Maclin.

Anderson’s return adds an unpredictable twist to the road leading into Victory Road, leaving fans wondering if he’ll play a bigger role in Maclin and Kazarian’s clash for the TNA International Championship.
