TNA Wrestling became a trending topic yesterday after Moose was removed from the MLP Multiverse event. However, what the company described as a wrestler's scheduling issue could be much more complex. According to a report from Fightful, TNA would not want their talents to face wrestlers from All Elite Wrestling in the independent scene.

If true, already scheduled matches like the bout between Leon Slater against Ricochet and the anticipated Nic Nemeth vs. MJF could be canceled. This afternoon, "The Devil" wanted to share his opinion on the matter with harsh statements against TNA and its president, accusing them of promoting a policy that negatively affects their own talent.

"Let's talk about TNA and the fact that they are pulling young talents from shows when they are barely paying them any money, and telling them: 'Hey, you can't fight because there's a guy from another promotion who will fight in this event'. Does that help young talents grow? Does that help young talents improve in the ring? Furthermore, does that help young talents put food on their plate and on their table to eat? What Carlos Silva is doing is repugnant. If anyone supports him or that company at this point, I find it very difficult to understand," MJF said on Busted Open Radio.

MJF is still scheduled to face Nic Nemeth at Monumental Moment, the event that the promotion Create a Pro Wrestling will hold in Melville, New York, on May 1st. The fight was announced by Brian Myers, TNA talent and CAP promoter, who acted as a mediator in a war of words between Nemeth and MJF. According to Fightful, Nemeth has not stopped insisting to TNA to allow him to fight against the AEW World Champion.
