– Josh Alexander is currently testing the free agent market in early 2025 following the recent release of his TNA Wrestling contract. During a recent appearance on the Straight Talk Wrestling podcast, “The Walking Weapon” spoke about that, as well as how there was one point during the TNA-NXT crossover appearances that he was supposed to go over. “I will say that there was one certain situation where I was supposed to go, and it did not happen,” Alexander said. “There were maybe two other situations where I was asked to go, and it got shut down for whatever reason that was. No hard feelings on my end. I have options on the table, so there are no hard feelings or nothing like that. There were definitely plenty of stories that could have been told, whether it was The North reunited for one night only or if I went one-on-one with Ethan Page in some capacity, just because of all the history we have together. There was a lot of stuff thrown at me at certain times. Whether it’s true or false, it just didn’t materialize for whatever reason. The timing wasn’t there for it.”
