As was reported a little while back, TNA Impact Wrestling reached an agreement with Keiji "Great Muta" Mutoh to co-promote with the Wrestle-1 promotion in Japan. This deal was put together by TNA Founder Jeff Jarrett when he was still with TNA.
It's now being reported that amidst the rumors that TNA might be looking to bring back Vince Russo, the Wrestle-1 promotion may have lost interest in working with TNA because either Mutoh himself or other people in Wrestle-1 feel that Vince Russo might be prejudiced against the Japanese based on comments that he allegedly made at some point in WCW, and also because of how he has booked Japanese wrestlers both in WCW and in TNA.
