GFW News: Magnus on Why He Turned Down GFW, Eli Drake Shot at Alberto

Magnus

Former TNA and GFW World Champ Nick “Magnus” Aldis recently turned down a GFW contract offer and is no longer with the company.

On a recent podcast, Pancakes and Powerslams, Magnus elaborated on why he turned down GFW:

“There was no release. There was nothing like that. A contract was offered to me, which I declined. Anthem offered me a contract. I read the contract. It’s not something that, I’ll say this in the nicest way that I can, it’s not a contract that anyone with any value, any sense of self-value, or self-worth would sign. There’s no point in signing a contract to make you exclusive to one place if you’re not getting anything in return.”
