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"

People need to realize WB has final word when shows come on and if they have to be moved. Final four that Saturday was unavoidable. March madness way bigger than wrestling.

Leon is destined for WWE, so he will likely be pulled fromw wrestling AEW wrestlers anywhere, imo. Shame that the companies can't play nice.

Mark McDonald

Sad. Sad reflection on tnxt. Firmly in bed with the fed

Matt Hennessy

Has nothing to do with the FED they are annoyed that Collision was put on Thursday nights which is TNA time slot. Maybe learn to read it was an issue Carlos Silva had not WWE

Mark McDonald

Everything to do with the fed. Theyre pretty much under fed control. Mlp are working with Aew cmll etc and theres no way the fed want tna wrestlers on those shows. Dont like the fact mlp are working with aew cmll and roh do they. Sad. Maybe learn some common sense and not go with the given excuse. Its clear why they wont let them work mlp

Matt Hennessy

To be honest I see both sides realistically if WBD say jump Tony going to say how high he’s not willing to challenge even though at times he should. If your TNA AEW raided half your roster from within the last year I can somewhat understand Silva not wanting to work with them directly

Josh Nason

I don't think Josh Alexander, Mike Bailey or The Rascalz were held at gunpoint.

Michael Wall

That's nonsense. It would be known they'd be preempted for the NCAA tourney. Kinda like how we knew in the 90s that WWF would be preempted for the US Open and the dog show. That was not Tony trying to stick it to TNA. This smells like WWE pulling their usual bullshit.

Matt Hennessy

Not saying they were just that I understood both sides. Some of the signings do feel they were done out of spite no disrespect to the iconics but they don’t really fit the work rate style of what AEW is they got signed squashed on tv & moved to ROH. I want people to get paid but I’m also willing to look at both sides

Alex P11

I’m sure they would’ve gone to wwe if they had interest, especially with one of their husbands working for nxt. The fact that they were willing to go to aew just tells me that they were already out the door of TNA.

Michael Wall

The update seems to confirm this. "Partner conflicts" means WWE doesn't like it.

Matt Hennessy

Your right & again I’m not painting anyone as the bad guy pro wrestling was built on companies & wrestlers been petty if they feel they were done wrong

Ricky

Collision on Thursday had everything to do with the NCAA tournament semifinals being on Saturday on WBD. There is no way this was an AEW call. Silvas right to pull them but my guess is he is likely to tick off his own wrestlers who are missing a payday.

"Partner conflicts" - what other partner would have an issue with TNA talent wrestling AEW talent? Genuine question - not trying to start anything

Mark McDonald

Again. Everything to do with the fed. Nemeth cant work mjf now. The fed and their little toy tna deserve eachother. Taking away what fans have paid for. When has the fed cared about fans. Im sure they care about the 60k empty mania seats though.

Mark McDonald

Are you with us, or are you against us carlos. The fed and their toy disappointing fans and running from AEW. Funny
