Wonder if the fact that he was on tna means aew and tna will work closer together again
Hard to say. The last few big NJPW names have made Impact/TNA runs right before their contracts expire (Switchblade, Ospreay, and Okada).
My gut feeling–and it's nothing more than that–is that TNA and AEW aren't on the best of terms. Maybe it was TK’s commercials, the way Sammy was handled, or something else, but I just feel like they aren't too cool with each other right now. For a company that's all about the forbidden door, you never hear AEW mention Impact/TNA.
Yeah, I don’t think they’re on good terms at all, mainly due to their previous “partnership” not benefiting TNA in the slightest. Plus, at the moment, TNA actually has a little bit of upward trajectory, and I think they’re mainly focused on just doing their own thing for the time being.
I just added this in my original comment but felt like it's worth saying here: I think the fact that AEW scheduled their last two B.O.T.B specials to go up against the last two major TNA P.P.V's (Bound for Glory and Hard to Kill) is a damn good sign that the relationship isn't that great.
