The OC worked in TNA Wrestling after their initial release from WWE.
On the latest edition of their “Talk’n Shop” podcast, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson revealed that they were offered two-year deals in 2022 before they ultimately left the company and returned to WWE.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
Anderson on their time in TNA: “We signed with TNA on July 15-16, 2020. It was a two-year deal and it ended on July 16, 2022. That was our last TV tapings. Let’s put this out there. TNA, and the people in charge of TNA at the time, offered us a new two-year deal.”
Gallows on TNA’s offer: “They offered us a new two-year deal with significant raises. I know that will make some people mad… We wanted to do it, but we wanted to be able to make those New Japan dates.”
Anderson on turning down the contract due to the NJPW dates: “To their credit, they said, ‘I can’t sign you to this and have you miss these shows.’ We, at that time, we had really missed Japan.”
