AEW/TNA Tensions Rise as More Matches Cancelled

More future AEW/TNA matches are being put on ice.

On Wednesday various news outlets reported that TNA was changing its policy when it comes to who their talent interacts with on indie shows.

It was later reported that Moose was pulled from MLW’s upcoming Multiverse show.

TNA’s concern comes from how their talent would be booked and the fact that AEW elected to put Collision against Impact last week to avoid competition from NCAA basketball on Saturday night.

TNA issued a brief statement saying: “TNA wrestlers were pulled due to partner conflicts.”

Now, more indie matches set to feature TNA stars are being cancelled.

WrestleCon has announced that Leon Slater has been pulled from their show. He was to face Ricochet.

They wrote:

Despite being previously cleared by all parties and respective management, Leon Slater has been pulled from this match one week prior to our Memorial event. We will have more to say at a later time, but we wanted to be immediately transparent to all fans.

Brian Myers also announced that AEW World Champion MJF will not be taking on Nic Nemeth at The 5/1 Create-A-Pro Wrestling event.

MJF responded to the announcement by taking a shot at TNA President Carlos Silva:

Welp. Nic Nemeth and TNA are afraid of the AEW World Champion. Shame old, Carlos doesn’t care about the fans or his roster getting paid. I’ll still be there @CreateAPro Let’s see if Nicky still has the balls to show up to Long Island.”
