TNA Names Home Town Man for Canada in World X-Cup
Summary: TNA said on Tuesday, Nov. 10, that The Home Town Man will enter the World X-Cup at Destination X on Sunday, Nov. 15, in Edmonton. By our count five of the eight entrants are now known, with three places open.
The quick version
- TNA announced on X on Nov. 10 that The Home Town Man will enter the World X-Cup at Destination X. Fightful and Ringside News say he represents Canada.
- Those outlets call him the third entrant. TNA's own Oct. 29 Impact results name Ricky Sosa and Fabian Aichner first, so by our count he is the fifth. Three places are open.
- Neither outlet says which of the two four-way matches he is in.
TNA announced on Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2026, that The Home Town Man will enter the World X-Cup at Destination X on Sunday, Nov. 15, at the Edmonton Expo Centre in Edmonton, Alberta. TNA's post says the show is live on pay-per-view and TNA+. Fightful and Ringside News report that he will represent Canada. TNA's post, as we read it, does not name a country.
The count
Fightful and Ringside News call The Home Town Man the third announced entrant, after Rey Horus and Jason Hotch. That leaves out two names. TNA's results for its Oct. 29 Impact say Ricky Sosa will represent Belgium and Fabian Aichner will represent Italy, and TNA's own post called them "the first entrants." See our story on Sosa and Aichner. With Horus, Hotch and The Home Town Man, that is five of eight known. Three places are open.
The format
The World X-Cup is two four-way matches. The winners meet in a final, per Fightful and Ringside News. PWInsider's Nov. 9 rundown lists one four-way as Sosa, Aichner and Horus with the fourth place blank. Hotch is in the other, per Ringside News. We found no report of which match The Home Town Man is in.
The rest of the show
Destination X also has Leon Slater defending the TNA World Championship against Trey Miguel and Indi Hartwell defending the Knockouts World Championship against Shayna Baszler, per Fightful. There are men's and women's Ultimate X matches, and Matt Hardy and Moose face syX's Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw. The last Impact before the show is Thursday, Nov. 12. See our card story.
What is next
TNA has not said when it will name the other three. Our earlier Horus and Hotch stories counted two entrants and are out of date on that point.
