Matt Hardy Praises TNA’s Carlos Silva for Turning the Company Around

Matt Hardy has come out in strong support of TNA Wrestling president Carlos Silva, crediting the executive with pulling the promotion back from a difficult position since taking over in December 2024.

Anthem Wrestling brought Silva on board late last year, and the results have been tangible. Among the most significant developments under his watch is TNA securing a television deal with AMC — a meaningful step up in visibility for a company that has spent years working to rebuild its standing in the industry. Hardy, a longtime veteran who has been a prominent figure in TNA, believes Silva deserves real credit for the progress made.

Not everyone is fully satisfied — fan criticism of TNA’s creative direction has remained a consistent thread even as the company has grown in other areas. But Hardy’s assessment suggests that from an organizational and business standpoint, the trajectory under Silva is a positive one.

For a promotion that has weathered more than its share of turbulence over the years, landing a deal with a cable network like AMC represents genuine forward momentum. Whether the creative product can catch up to the business gains will likely define the next chapter of TNA’s resurgence. Hardy’s public backing of Silva at least signals that those inside the locker room are taking notice of the changes — and for the most part, liking what they see.
