According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, former TNA Champion Nick “Magnus” Aldis is already finished with GFW.

Magnus reportedly turned down GFW’s latest contract offer, which is why he is no longer with the company, having only returned a short while back. As for why Magnus was at the last set of Impact TV tapings, he was there under a handshake deal with GFW to protect the ‘lineage’ of the GFW and to drop it to Alberto El Patron.

The report adds many of the new GFW talent deals require the talents to give GFW 10% of revenue they make outside of GFW, and it also gives them no percentage of merchandise bearing their likeness which is sold directly by GFW.

Magnus is a one-time TNA World Champion, who signed with the company back in 2008. In 2015, he was one of the first talents to sign with Global Force Wrestling when the promotion was announced.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
