Growing concern TNA will pull talent from matches against AEW wrestlers, more details (Patreon)

TNA talent has been pulled from MLP Multiverse.
Fightful Select has learned that Moose has been pulled from the upcoming MLP Multiverse show. We're told that previously, Moose was approved for the show, but there could be bigger ramifications coming. It was indicated to us from TNA sources that Moose may have had a scheduling conflict on the date.
However, now there is fear within the indies that Leon Slater and Nic Nemeth will be pulled from planned matches with AEW talent, which would result in big changes. Leon Slater vs. Ricochet and Nic Nemeth vs. MJF have been planned for events around the country. Sources familiar with the situation believe that it is heading towards an environment where TNA talent can't wrestle AEW talent anywhere. Those that we spoke to believe that Nemeth is pushing to remain on the match with MJF.
The immediate reaction we got from TNA was that Carlos Silva was okay with TNA wrestlers working MLP, but people close to MLP heard that Silva wasn't happy about AEW running Collision opposite TNA IMPACT last week. Even though that was a WBD decision, as AEW has seemed to like the college basketball lead in that the weekends have brought.
UPDATE: Carlos Silva tells me that TNA wrestlers have been pulled from some shows due to "partner conflicts"
