According to sources, TNA’s discussions for a talent exchange with GFW is a move out of desperation to save their TV deal and garner interest in the product. The two companies have been talking about some talent sharing, of which Wednesday night’s Bobby Roode announcement is one. Jeff Jarrett wanted to get Matt Hardy but that doesn’t appear to be happening.
An “invasion” angle is still possible and TNA would have gone to ROH, but ROH has denied them in the past at several times to run a similar deal so the company went with someone different this time. One of the “invasions” proposed in the past was a ROH/TNA One Night Only-style PPV.
TNA also contacted ROH about a talent exchange last year, and then early this year about an invasion angle that would have involved The Kingdom and Maria Kanellis, among others. Obviously those didn’t come to pass.
