As noted before, TNA Wrestling recently changed their policy no longer allowing contracted TNA talents to work on the same indies shows as AEW talents, specifically in regards to matches involving TNA talents competing against contracted AEW talents. In recent response to a fan question on Twitter, AJ Francis stated that he believes TNA President Carlos Silva was not in the wrong to pull Leon Slater’s scheduled match against Ricochet for WrestleCon’s Mark Hitchcock Memorial Supershow 2026 event earlier this month. Francis statedNo, because nobody had a problem w/ AEW not allowing Powerhouse Hobbs to lose to me at 4th Rope even though the next night in the SAME BUILDING I was in a SOLD OUT MAIN EVENT vs Nic Nemeth for the TNA WORLD TITLE… cut that victim bullshit out. Every company protects interests.
