A developing situation involving TNA Wrestling talent and the upcoming MLP Multiverse event is creating uncertainty for several high-profile matches. According to Fightful Select, Moose has been officially removed from the card despite previously receiving approval to compete. While internal sources within TNA have pointed to a scheduling conflict as the reason, the move has raised broader concerns about talent restrictions moving forward.
Attention has now shifted to other advertised matches that could be affected. Leon Slater was set to face Ricochet, while Nic Nemeth had been scheduled to take on MJF. Both bouts are now in question. Sources familiar with the situation indicate that TNA may be moving toward a stricter policy that prevents its wrestlers from competing against AEW talent on any platform, not just televised events. Nemeth is reportedly attempting to remain part of the show, but his status is uncertain.
The issue appears to stem from tensions involving TNA President Carlos Silva. Initial reactions suggested that Silva had no issue with TNA talent appearing at MLP Multiverse events. However, new information indicates that frustration may have grown following AEW’s decision to air Collision opposite TNA Impact last week. That scheduling move was reportedly made by Warner Bros. Discovery, as AEW has recently benefited from strong lead-in numbers tied to college basketball coverage.
This situation has led to complications for independent events attempting to feature talent from both promotions. The potential for a wider restriction could impact future cross-promotional appearances and limit matchups that have already been advertised.
Fightful reached out to Carlos Silva for clarification on the matter. He stated that some TNA wrestlers have been pulled from events due to “partner conflicts,” suggesting that business relationships with WWE are now playing a larger role in determining talent availability.
As the situation continues to evolve, more changes to the MLP Multiverse card could be announced in the coming days, depending on how TNA proceeds with its stance on talent working alongside AEW performers.
