This week’s episode will be taking place in Jacksonville, Florida. A few matches have been announced for the show as The Elite will battle the Inner Circle to determine who gets the advantage in Blood & Guts.
It seems the Blood & Guts match will be going ahead as scheduled. It will be interesting to see such a monumental match take place with no audience but the promotion seems determine to forge on despite the virus.
