Former AEW Champion Max Caster Answers Moose’s TNA Open Challenge Wrestling News Source – Latest WWE, AEW, Pro Wrestling News, Money in the Bank 2026 Results

Max Caster is heading to TNA, with the former AEW World Tag Team Champion confirmed to face Moose at Bound for Glory this Sunday.

Caster has answered Moose’s open challenge for the October 11 event at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida. The match will mark his TNA debut and his first in-ring appearance in three months, following the expiration of his AEW contract at the start of October.

He revealed his next move with a rap posted on social media, taking aim at his upcoming opponent.

“Big bad Platinum coming to your town. Oh, you didn’t know? I’m TNA bound,” Caster declared. “Bound for the what? I’m a Glory hound. Answering the call, putting Moose underground.”

TNA has confirmed the match, although the company has not announced whether Caster has signed a contract or will make further appearances after Bound for Glory.

Caster and his former Acclaimed partner Anthony Bowens both entered free agency this month after their AEW contracts expired. Bowens’ next move remains unclear, including whether he will remain with AEW. However, he dismissed the prospect of an Acclaimed reunion in a social media post last month.

Sunday’s event begins with the TNA Hall of Fame induction ceremony at 4 p.m. Eastern time, followed by the pay-per-view at 4:30 p.m.

The announced Bound for Glory line-up is:

• TNA World Championship: Nic Nemeth defends against Leon Slater.
