TNA has removed Steve Maclin’s International Championship defense from Friday’s Under Siege pay-per-view after the champion failed to receive medical clearance. Director of Authority Santino Marella announced the decision on this week’s iMPACT, citing lingering effects from Maclin’s recent Dog Collar match with Eric Young.
The title match against Matt Cardona will instead headline the May 30 episode of iMPACT. The change comes as TNA prioritizes Maclin’s recovery over rushing his return. While Under Siege loses a featured bout, the event retains its remaining lineup, including [insert other key match if mentioned in original].
Cardona’s pursuit of TNA gold hits a brief delay, though the rescheduled clash could now build additional momentum on free television.
