Former WWE star Zoey Stark has officially signed with TNA Wrestling following her move into free agency earlier this month. Now competing as Zoey Serrano, the 32-year-old debuted on Thursday’s Impact by attacking Indi Hartwell following Hartwell’s confrontation with Daria Rae, who then announced Serrano as TNA’s newest Knockout. Serrano previously made three TNA appearances between 2019 and 2020 under the name Lacey Ryan. WWE released her in April while she was recovering from a serious knee injury suffered in May 2025. She had been with WWE since 2021 and recently returned to action on the independent scene.

Some big news from AAA:

Thea Hail announced she has alopecia areata. She wrote on Instagram: “i now have alopecia areata… i have literally manifested going bald. anyways swipe to see my naked scalp and some cute pics of me with and without hair”. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, causing hair to fall out, usually in small, smooth, round or oval patches on the scalp, beard, eyebrows, eyelashes, or other areas of the body. It can develop suddenly, and while the affected skin usually remains normal-looking without scarring, hair may grow back on its own or may fall out again later. It is not contagious and is not caused by poor hygiene; treatments such as corticosteroids and newer medications called JAK inhibitors may help stimulate hair regrowth.

A guest on the New York Knicks podcast, Luchasaurus revealed that he won’t be returning to the ring any time soon. He has had surgeries on his rotator cuffs, his left meniscus and his right elbow.

GTA 6 will reportedly feature backyard wrestling as one of several side activities available in the game. Footage from the game’s Extended Look on Netflix reportedly shows a wrestler performing a Death Valley Driver, while protagonist Jason Duval is also said to be bodyslammed inside a makeshift ring. The activity appears alongside basketball, kayaking and scuba diving and ties into the game’s returning fitness mechanics. Eating, exercising and sleeping will affect the appearance of Jason and Lucia Caminos, similar to GTA: San Andreas. Lucia has also previously been shown training with kickboxing-style strikes, consistent with her character’s fighting background.

Eddie Kingston has confirmed he has been medically cleared to return to the ring after a health scare forced him to miss last Saturday’s AEW Collision. Kingston was scheduled to face Claudio Castagnoli in a Continental Challenge Cup quarterfinal but was pulled after failing to receive clearance. The 44-year-old said he now feels “1000 times better”, although he did not reveal the nature of the health issue. Kingston is set to return on Friday, challenging Hechicero for the CMLL Heavyweight Championship at Arena Mexico in what will be his first appearance for CMLL.

The results for last night’s episode of TNA Impact are in.
