The name in question is Mike Santana. He gained prominence during his time in the Tony Khan-led promotion, teaming up with Ortiz. Santana had a great tag team run, putting on amazing matches from time to time. However, after being away from TV for months, he reportedly asked for his release and it was granted.
Amid much speculation about his future, Mike Santana returned to TNA Wrestling after years. The former AEW star was a part of the promotion from 2017 to 2019 before eventually joining All Elite Wrestling. He made his comeback at TNA's Rebellion event.
