AJ Styles Babyface Turn Nixed, Live Events Canceled Due To Poor Attendance

— TNA Wrestling’s original creative plans called for AJ Styles to turn babyface to replace the injured Mr. Anderson as Jeff Hardy’s opponent at Turning Point, but they instead went with Matt Morgan.

 


 

Some have questioned whether Morgan’s turn will culminate with a finish similar to Kevin Nash lying down for Hulk Hogan during match on a 1999 episode of WCW Monday Nitro, but the belief is that he will be a face going forward.

— TNA Wrestling has canceled live events scheduled for Nov. 19 in Evansville, Indiana and Nov. 20 in Indianapolis, reportedly due to lackluster ticket sales. The only events scheduled past those dates for the remainder of the year are iMPACT! television tapings and the Final Resolution pay-per-view in December.

According to f4wonline.com, live event attendance has been “way down” since Bound for Glory.
