Trey Miguel Re-Signs With TNA, Makes Surprise Return on Thursday Night iMPACT!

Trey Miguel is once again part of the TNA Wrestling roster, and the company didn’t waste any time making his return feel important.

Miguel made his surprise comeback on this week’s episode of TNA iMPACT!, entering the Feast or Fired match to immediately reinsert himself into the title picture. During the bout, commentary confirmed what had been rumored earlier in the day — Miguel has officially re-signed with TNA Wrestling.

The former X-Division standout’s return comes after a short and rocky stint with AEW. Miguel was released from that deal not long after signing, reportedly due to a past 2020 social media comment that resurfaced. The comment, which was a homophobic response to an online troll, led to backlash at the time, and Miguel later issued a public apology. With that chapter seemingly behind him, TNA has welcomed him back into the fold.

Prior to his on-screen return, reports had already suggested that TNA was in talks to bring Miguel back, making Thursday night’s appearance a confirmation rather than a total shock — though the timing and presentation still caught fans off guard.

Miguel wasn’t alone in the Feast or Fired match, which featured a stacked lineup including AJ Francis, The Home Town Man, Rich Swann, Mance Warner, Eric Young, Jason Hotch, John Skyler, Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, and Steve Maclin.

By the end of the chaotic stipulation match, Steve Maclin, Trey Miguel, Eddie Edwards, and Eric Young walked away with the four briefcases. As always with Feast or Fired, three of the cases guarantee future championship opportunities, while the fourth carries the brutal consequence of termination. Which briefcase contains what will be revealed on next week’s episode of TNA iMPACT!.

With Trey Miguel immediately landing a briefcase in his first night back, it’s clear TNA sees him as a key player moving forward — and his return could have major implications for multiple divisions depending on how the briefcases shake out.
