Matt Hardy as come to the defense of TNA President Carlos Silva, saying that Silva is succeeding in all his goals. Silva has come under fire of late over several criticisms around TNA, including his pulling TNA talent from independent events where they were set to face AEW talent as well as the departure of a number of stars and backstage crew. Steve Maclin, Tessa Blanchard, Tommy Dreamer, and Sami Callihan are among those who have been let go or granted their releases in recent weeks.
Hardy posted to Twitter on Wednesday to praise Silva for the work he is doing. He retweeted a post about comments he made on his podcast and wrote:
“Carlos was hired for this position to 1) dig TNA out of debt, 2) streamline company cost & expenses, 3) get the company on a bigger TV platform & 4) get to the point where TNA is becoming profitable. He’s been working tirelessly & every one of these tasks are challenging.
“Carlos is getting things done & succeeding on all these goals. The core group at TNA is gonna keep doing what we do – Work hard, grind away and make TNA as great as it can be.”
Callihan is among those who have offered a mixed review of Silva, noting that the TNA President doesn’t understand the business and that since they’ve been on AMC, the company has “played it so safe and it’s been a detriment.”
