TNA Wrestling Star Out Of Action Over A Year After ACL Surgery

TNA Wrestling has lost another star for a while, at least.

TNA star KC Navarro announced that he will undergo ACL surgery today and expects to be sidelined from in-ring competition for over a year. This halted his momentum in a big way, because he was previously paired up with AJ Francis as a heel duo.

KC Navarro posted on X to reveal that he is going into surgery. He will be out of action for a while, and the caption for his video post was quite revealing. It also included some hope that he will return soon enough.

“Today is the Day…I love you all…I hope you all support me through this! 1 year Plus of recovery but im ready to work hard and become the best version of myself💯 2026 you will all meet the REAL KC Navarro‼️ In FIR$T CLA$$ I was led by darkness…Now I’ll be brought back by the LIGHT🙏🏽 See you all soon”

KC Navarro’s most recent match took place on July 20, 2025, at TNA Slammiversary from the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York. He teamed with AJ Francis as First Class in a TNA World Tag Team Title Four-Way Ladder Match against reigning champions The Nemeths, The Hardys, and The Rascalz. The Hardys captured the titles during that match, but Navarro and Francis stole the show on a couple occasions.

TNA Wrestling may use KC Navarro in a non-wrestling role as he tags along with AJ Francis. That could be a good place for him as he recovers. Hopefully, he gets better in a hurry.

We’re hoping that KC Navarro is able to make it back into the squared circle soon. He has been through some highs and lows throughout his career, but he is certainly due for a big win.
