TNA Didn't Try To Re-Sign Josh Alexander Following Contract Expiry

Josh Alexander’s exit from TNA Wrestling was a long time coming, but the ‘Walking Weapon’ admits the brand never tried to re-sign him after his contract expired.

Alexander stated in early 2024 that his contract was set to expire in February 2025 and he was set to explore free agency, ultimately signing a deal with All Elite Wrestling. During a recent appearance on The Wrestling Classic, Alexander spoke of his TNA exit, and how they didn’t attempt to retain his services:

"I had a meeting with TNA the year before and they picked up my option and they were like, ‘We really want to keep you.’ I’m like, ‘Okay guys, I would be doing myself and my family a disservice not to see what else is out there from a financial perspective. So, you guys come to the table with an offer.'"

Alexander continued: “They never made me an offer, ever. They just took that and were like, ‘Oh, he’s leaving.’ I was like, ‘OK,’ even though we had conversations over time where I was just like ‘make an offer, guys’ and they just never did. So, obviously, I went and talked to two other companies and I had to make my decision there, and I chose AEW because it was just the right fit for me, right fit for my family.”

Alexander debuted for AEW at Spring BreakThru in April, quickly joining the Don Callis Family.
