Mustafa Ali may have been hinting at theatrics during the TNA Impact following Lockdown 2026, but no—he is indeed injured.
Indeed, the TNA International Champion has confirmed on his social networks the cancellation of his indie appearances through the end of September 2026. He announced that he will be out for the ACW show in Australia and the Community Pro Wrestling event in Scotland. The Community Pro show was scheduled for September 27, 2026.
Mustafa Ali himself had announced that he suffered a punctured lung and fractured ribs following TNA Lockdown. This information confirms that he will also be absent from the upcoming TNA shows in September.
TNA is set to record its upcoming TNA Impact episodes for next month on August 28, with tapings that will take place without him, at least in on-screen action.
His return to the TNA Impact show will be something to monitor.
