Overview
- Create A Pro canceled the MJF vs. Nic Nemeth main event Wednesday, then kept both on the May 1 show by shifting to an MJF open challenge and Nemeth vs. Bear Bronson with refunds offered.
- TNA president Carlos Silva cited partner conflicts for pulling talent, and on Friday Nemeth said he was told the call rested on legal protections and long‑term contractual obligations.
- MJF blasted Silva on social media and Busted Open Radio for cutting off wrestlers’ indie income, while TNA producer Lance Storm warned that telling fans to avoid TNA also hurts its roster.
- AEW president Tony Khan said he had approved the MJF and Ricochet bookings and was surprised, saying someone on the TNA side must have changed course.
- Other indie cards lost TNA participants, including Ricochet vs. Leon Slater at WrestleCon and Moose at Maple Leaf Pro, which forced small promoters to rebook shows and manage lost ticket value for fans.
