TNA Wrestling could be facing a major problem just days before Destination X 2026, and there’s not much the company can do about it. The FAA’s nationwide flight shutdown has thrown travel plans into chaos, and with most of TNA’s wrestlers scheduled to fly into Canada on Saturday, the company could be in trouble if those delays continue.
Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer revealed that TNA is in a tough spot heading into Sunday’s pay-per-view. Most of the people working Destination X aren’t even scheduled to travel until November 14, and the nationwide ground stop could make getting everyone to Edmonton a nightmare. Alvarez warned that the shutdown could have a serious impact on the event.
“Most everyone working Destination X should be flying in tomorrow, so if this lasts the expected six hours it could conceivably heavily impact (no pun) that show.”
The FAA grounded departing flights across the United States on Friday after a telecommunications outage caused problems with air traffic control. Even if flights resume later tonight, airlines could still be dealing with delays heading into Saturday.
That’s the problem for TNA. The company has a pay-per-view scheduled for Sunday, November 15, at the Edmonton EXPO Centre in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. With most of the roster traveling just one day before the show, a major delay could leave wrestlers struggling to arrive on time.
There’s no confirmation that anyone has missed a flight or that TNA has been forced to change its plans. However, with so many people expected to travel Saturday, the company doesn’t have much room for things to go wrong.
TNA is now heading into Destination X with a major question hanging over the show. If the flight problems aren’t cleared up in time, the company could be forced to make last-minute changes to its pay-per-view, and that’s the last thing it needs with the event just around the corner.
Do you think TNA will get everyone to Edmonton in time for Destination X, or could the flight shutdown force changes to Sunday’s show? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
