TNA Rebellion 2026 is loaded with big matches, but one key figure is now expected to miss the show after revealing he recently underwent surgery. Santino Marella took to Instagram to share that he had surgery to treat sleep apnea, which helps explain why he has been suspended in recent TNA storylines. The angle now appears to have been used to write him off television while he recovers from the procedure. While updating fans, Marella confirmed that the surgery went well and shared optimism about what it could mean for his health moving forward after dealing with the condition for decades. He also admitted that recovery hasnt been easy so far, but said he expects to feel the benefits soon once his body starts healing. With TNA Rebellion featuring major matches like Mike Santana defending the TNA World Championship against Eddie Edwards and The Hardys putting their tag titles on the line against The System, Marellas absence could still be noticeable given his role on television. His storyline suspension now makes more sense with the surgery confirmed. Santino Marella focusing on his health ahead of Rebellion adds a real-life layer to the ongoing TNA storylines, and fans will likely be watching to see when he makes his return once recovery is complete. Do you think Santino Marella being off TV will affect TNA during Rebellion, or will the show feel the same without him there? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let us know.
