A big name free agent who recently ended their stint in TNA has now teased their future could be in WWE.

On March 7, Alex Hammerstone announced he had left TNA Wrestling and was looking for new opportunities. In a post on social media, the star confirmed he’d wrestled his last match for the company during its February tapings and was looking to the future:

I wrestled my last match for TNA at the February tapings and am no longer under contract with the company. Grateful for the opportunities that came my way and excited for what’s next.

Hammerstone had initially signed with TNA in early 2024 but later suffered a knee injury in December. In a follow-up video, the star hit back at online theories about supposed injuries he’d suffered during his time with the company, revealing he’d been misdiagnosed with a heart issue, which turned out to be pneumonia.

Hammerstone Teases WWE Interest

WWE is believed to have a strong interest in Hammerstone and now the star himself has teased joining them. Taking to social media to share a photo of himself at the WWE Performance Center in what appears to be a tryout with the company.

Some fans, however, have already booked their own future for Hammerstone that wouldn’t involve WWE at all. During his time in MLW, Hammerstone was part of a faction called Dynasty with Richard Holliday and MJF. MJF is currently being headhunted by MVP for The Hurt Syndicate but many AEW fans want to see him bring his former partners into the company to battle MVP’s group instead.
