‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey Reacts To Potential AEW Matches For Leon Slater
‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey comments on potential AEW dream matches for TNA’s Leon Slater.
The live episode of TNA Wrestling’s Thursday Night iMPACT on AMC on May 14th was headlined by Leon Slater defending the X Division Championship against Cedric Alexander.
If Slater were to retain the belt, the next day, he would have officially become the longest-reigning TNA X Division Champion of all time.
He ended up losing the belt to Alexander. Coming off the heels of Slater’s loss, an X user posted about potential dream matches for Slater in All Elite Wrestling. That drew the attention of ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey, who noted that the list was incredible.
Those matches all sound incredible!! https://t.co/j57D4HZU9c
