TNA Wrestlings Genesis pay-per-view is right around the corner, but the lineup has already seen some major last-minute shakeupsthanks to unexpected travel issues.
According to earlier reports, Dani Luna was unable to make it to Texas for the AMC debut or Genesis due to travel complications. As a result, her scheduled Knockouts World Title match against Li Yng Lee has been scrapped. But the title will still be on the linebecause Lee signed an open challenge contract for the show. Thats when two names from WWE NXTZARIA and Sol Rucastepped up
Also off the card is X Division Champion Leon Slater, who was set to defend in a three-way against Cedric Alexander and Moose. Now, Joe Hendry will replace Slater in the match. Cedric is still promised a title opportunity at a later date.
In a new match added to the card, Mara Sad will face Ryan Nemeth in singles action.
Heres the updated Genesis 2026 card:
- J.D.C.s Retirement Match: J.D.C. vs. Eddie Edwards
- Three-Way Match: Joe Hendry vs. Moose vs. Cedric Alexander
