Moose Reacts to TNA’s Hiatus Following Bound For Glory – TNA World Champion Mike Santana’s title victory at Bound For Glory on October 12 marked a high point for the company, but the momentum came to a halt when TNA announced a temporary hiatus from television. No new episodes of TNA iMPACT! have aired since the event, with the promotion set to return on November 13 for a live broadcast from Orlando, followed by Turning Point on November 14.

Speaking with Bill Pritchard of WrestleZone, Moose shared his thoughts on the break, admitting he feels sympathy for Santana after his milestone win.

“Mike Santana, he just won the title and essentially brought it back home — first time world champion, did it in front of the biggest crowd that TNA has had in I think in the history of the company — and then we take four weeks off. So I feel most sad for him because, in my opinion, that’s not the way that should happen,” Moose said. “But at the same time, I trust Carlos [Silva]. I trust the team. I understand what the reasons why they did it. I’m on board, but at the same time, I feel bad for guys like [Santana] and other guys on our roster who love the fire that we got going on.”

Moose continued by expressing confidence in TNA’s leadership and optimism about the company’s return to Orlando, a familiar location for long-time fans.

“At the end of the day, we all just got to be patient because the team, and Carlos as the head of the team, knows exactly what he’s doing. Hey, look, he’s brought us this far. As hot as we are, he’s a big part of it. We just got to trust the process. I’m sure everybody’s going to be excited to go to Orlando. I know I am because when I started with TNA, we was actually called TNA when I started. This was in 2016 and we was in Orlando. It’s always great coming back home; I’m looking forward to it.”

Moose concluded by assuring fans that the hiatus is strategic and will pay off when TNA returns. “The only thing I can tell you is it makes sense and you just have to trust Carlos and trust the team. It’s all going to be okay. We’re going to go into Orlando and it’s going to be hot. I’m sure fans miss us, so it’s going to make the show even better.”

The Company held a special episode of iMPACT Open Fight Night on November 6th, featuring a full slate of pre-taped matches. TNA’s return to live programming is expected to reignite momentum for the brand and its roster as it enters the final stretch of 2025.
