TNA Genesis 2026 Ticket Sales Update: Solid Numbers But Far From a Sellout

TNA is officially in the AMC era, and their first pay-per-view of 2026 is right around the corner. With Genesis set for January 17 at the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, the company has stacked the card to keep fans entertained—but how are ticket sales looking just a day out?

According to a WrestleTix, just over 3,172 tickets have been distributed with only 150 seats left for the current setup of 3,322. That means the configured setup is over 95% full—but that doesn’t tell the full story.

The Curtis Culwell Center can hold up to 5,259 fans for a wrestling event, which means TNA deliberately scaled down the venue. So while they’re close to selling out what they set up, the show won’t come close to packing the building in its full capacity.

Last year’s Genesis drew 4,032 fans (3,622 paid), so the numbers for 2026 are smaller in comparison. That said, they’ve still sold 556 more tickets since the last update four days ago, showing a solid late push. It’s decent for TNA’s current position, but not exactly groundbreaking given the promotion’s fresh visibility on a major network.

Standard admission prices range from $34 to $68, and most sections are nearly full heading into the final day. While TNA didn’t go big with the arena configuration, the Genesis card is loaded:

• TNA World Heavyweight Title: Mike Santana (c) vs. Frankie Kazarian (Texas Deathmatch, Ref: Nic Nemeth)
• Knockouts Title: Léi Yǐng Lee (c) vs. Zaria
• International Title: Stacks (c) vs. BDE vs. Eric Young vs. Mystery Opponent
• Tag Titles: The Hardys (c) vs. The Righteous
• Triple Threat: Joe Hendry vs. Cedric Alexander vs. Moose
• JDC’s Retirement Match: JDC vs. Eddie Edwards
• Elijah vs. Mustafa Ali
• Rich Swann vs. AJ Francis
• Mara Sadé vs. Ryan Nemeth

Genesis will stream live on TNA+ with the pre-show at 7 PM ET and the main card at 8 PM ET.  Be sure to tune in live and follow along with Ringside News for full play-by-play coverage of the event.

As the AMC era rolls on, Genesis serves as TNA’s first big test of the year. With a card full of fresh talent and old names, the real question is whether the product can eventually fill a full-size venue again.

Do you think TNA should’ve gone for a bigger setup at Genesis? How do you feel about their momentum in the AMC era so far? Let us know in the comments.
