One TNA star has said their emotional goodbye to the company after six years.

TNA is waving goodbye to a former champion as they look to continue their wrestling career elsewhere. Ace Austin joined TNA in 2019 and went on to become a three-time X-Division Champion as well as a three-time TNA Tag Team Champion with his ABC partner Chris Bey. Chris Bey suffered a serious career-threatening injury in October 2024 as he and Austin took on The Hardys.

Since then, Ace Austin has continued on himself in TNA, but now he’s looking to spread his wings once again.

Ace Austin Says Goodbye To TNA

Taking to social media, Ace Austin has paid tribute to TNA as he waves goodbye to the company that has been his wrestling home for six years:

There’s so much to be said about how phenomenal the last 6 years have been. It’s impossible to caption how much this time has meant to me. I’m grateful for every moment and I’m incredibly proud of the part I played. Representing the company across the world was an honor. This will always be my first home.

Thank you @ThisIsTNA and thank you especially to the one of a kind locker room full of amazing, caring, hard working people who helped shape me into the performer and man I am today. I grew up with you and I will cherish that time forever. We’ve all worked so hard and TNA is better than ever.

They gave me an opportunity to shine and I gave them some of the best years of my life. Together we flourished. One of the best things about #TNA is the door always swings both ways.
