According to Fightful Select, MJF was planned to face Bear Bronson at GCW in March — but TNA Wrestling blocked the match from happening. No further details on the specific nature of the conflict have been made public.
The report comes in the same week that TNA also pulled Moose from an MLP Multiverse appearance, with TNA President Carlos Silva citing partner conflicts as the reason. TNA talent Nic Nemeth remains advertised to face MJF at CAP Wrestling on May 1, suggesting the situation with TNA and MJF’s independent bookings is being handled on a case-by-case basis rather than a blanket restriction.
