The annual Bound For Glory pay-per-view aired live on Sunday night and the show featured the big debut of former AEW star Max Caster who took on Moose in an open challenge.
Fightful Select is reporting that Max Caster is already in hot water with TNA Wrestling one day after he made his big debut with the company at Bound For Glory. It was noted that there’s a chance he’s already done with the company.
Sean Ross Sapp was told that Caster got heat from many in TNA due to a line he used during his entrance when he said, “And it’s the firing squad. I drop bombs. You don’t even have to fly to Riyadh.” It was noted that specifically there were some executives who were unhappy with the line. Sources at TNA Wrestling noted that the line was not in the script or approved.
It’s being reported that TNA Wrestling originally wanted Max Caster to work the upcoming TV tapings in Alabama. Fightful has not learned if he will be at the tapings, or if the door is open for him to work with the company again.
It was noted that Caster also got heat numerous times for the lines he used in All Elite Wrestling, and the company decided to let his contract expire at the start of October. AEW sources noted there is no plan for Caster to return to the company. TNA Wrestling sources did not specify if Caster was working under contract or on a verbal agreement.
Total Nonstop Action has deleted all mentions of Riyadh in the replays that were uploaded to social media. While Caster lost to Moose in an open challenge at Bound For Glory, it’s being reported that other free agent options were considered before Caster was put in the match.
