TNA faced criticism after several of its wrestlers were pulled from scheduled matches against AEW talent during the WrestleMania 42 weekend, with last‑minute cancellations and replacements drawing heat aimed at TNA President Carlos Silva. The changes included Leon Slater being removed from a slated bout with Ricochet, prompting questions from fans and media alike.

AJ Francis took to social media to back Silva’s explanation, praising the decision and telling critics to “cut that victim bulls*it out,” arguing that every promotion protects its interests — noting AEW’s own booking protections and pointing to his night‑one main event against Nic Nemeth for the TNA World Title. His comments follow similar defenses from other TNA figures, including Matt Hardy, as the company navigates the fallout.

Jonathan Gresham will challenge Charles Mason for the House of Glory (HOG) Heavyweight Championship at Glory at the Globe on May 1 in Los Angeles, the promotion announced as it returns to the West Coast. The title bout will be a featured attraction on the HOG card at the Globe.

The match pits Gresham’s mat-based, technical offense against Mason’s title reign, with Gresham looking to dethrone the champion and capture the HOG Heavyweight Title. Fans can expect a high-stakes clash that could reshape the division heading into the summer.
