TNA Genesis (2026) Results & Review by Ryan Balkwill

Promotion: Total Nonstop Action Wrestling

Date: January 17, 2026

City: Garland, Texas

Venue: Curtis Culwell Center

Overall Show Score: 6/10

Pros: I’m surprised there’s a intergender wrestling on this event. Léi Yǐng Lee keep her TNA Knockouts World Championship. Moose work really hard even with a bad back. Mike Santana retain his TNA World Championship & I’m glad Nic Nemeth failed to call his shots.

Cons: There wasn’t any advertisement for the event on there AMC Debut. JDC’s farewell did felt underwhelming. What a big shame for The Righteous not winning the Tag Team Championship & it has fair enough WWE advertisement plastering over the event.
