TNA recently blocked another match against AEW talent (Patreon)

We've learned of another match that TNA nixed of late.

TNA President Carlos Silva confirmed to Fightful Select's Sean Ross Sapp that a number of TNA talent have been pulled from planned indie matches against AEW talent. Carlos Silva indicated that it was due to "partner conflicts," but we've learned of a previous block as well.

Sources familiar with the situation claimed to Fightful that MJF was actually planned to face longtime friend Bear Bronson at GCW in March, however, TNA blocked it. It was noted that Mercedes Mone vs. Jody Threat was not blocked, with the TNA wrestler going over last week. A number of TNA wrestlers expressed frustration to us about the decision.

Sources told Fightful Select that Carlos Silva was not happy about AEW running Collision on a Thursday last week, which was a WBD call. AEW sources claimed that AEW would have likely preferred to air after March Madness games because of the lead in.
