24-year-old former WWE star officially signs with TNA Wrestling

IMPACT Wrestling is set to return to its former name, TNA Wrestling, on January 13, 2024, and ahead of that occasion, the promotion has officially signed a young former WWE Superstar.

The rising star in question is none other than Dani Luna (real name Chloe Smith). Luna began her pro wrestling career in 2017 and quickly rose through the ranks of the British independent scene.

She made her World Wrestling Entertainment debut in 2019 and spent the next three years performing on the NXT UK brand. In 2022, Luna left the Stamford-based company and debuted on IMPACT Wrestling in May 2023 and lost her first match to Jody Threat.

Currently, she is also a member of the Subculture stable, along with Mark Andrews and Flash Morgan Webster.

Even though the 24-year-old former WWE star has been in the Nashville-based promotion, she did not officially sign with them. Today, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling announced that they have officially signed Dani Luna.

Former WWE star confirmed to be still in touch with Tony Khan despite leaving AEW

Lio Rush was a part of the Stamford-based promotion from 2017 to 2020 and later signed with Tony Khan's All Elite Wrestling a year later. However, Rush's run with AEW wasn't a memorable one.

As of now, the 29-year-old former WWE star is currently signed with IMPACT Wrestling, who recently revealed being in touch with Tony Khan despite leaving AEW two years ago.

"For sure it was definitely a mutual parting (from AEW), and it was an understanding parting too. I think a lot of people think that there was this heavy war, bad blood, y’know. But like I said, sometimes things just don’t work out, and me and Tony (Khan) have been in communication since then. At the end of the day, we’ve gotta do what’s best for us and in that instant, in that moment, it was best for both parties."
