Dixie Carter has announced on Twitter that a major match for next week's Impact has been moved back.
Next week's Impact will be the 'Hardcore Justice' themed show. The Main Event Mafia were due to take on Aces 'N' Eights in a 5-on-5 tag team match. A major stipulation added that whoever gets pinned in the conclusion to the match "must leave TNA forever".

"After meeting with @HulkHogan, due to circumstances beyond our control - @TheAcesAnd8s vs. Mafia 5 on 5 match is delayed until 8/22 Impact."

When the tag team match was announced, there was already a plan to hold 3 Fatal-Four-Way 'Bound For Glory Series' matches at the same show. The Main Event Mafia only has 5 members, 2 of which are in the BFG Series. This would mean that Samoa Joe and Magnus would have to compete in 2 high-stakes matches in one night. Aces 'N' Eights member Mr. Anderson is also in the BFG Series, but due to the number of remaining teammates, Anderson does not have to be in the tag team match.
Samoa Joe, Magnus and Mr. Anderson have already been announced for a 4-Way Tables match at the next Impact, also featuring Bobby Roode.
This change also solves other problems for TNA. This avoids overloading one show with too many big matches, leaving future Impacts looking weak by comparison. Also, it makes it harder for people to guess who will represent Aces 'N' Eights in this match, as Bully Ray and Mr. Anderson will not be competing in other matches on the same night.
