Authors Of Pain New Promotion’s Debut Show Postponed

WWE

UPDATE: WES has confirmed that the event has been postponed until July 9, sharing the following statement:

Wrestling Entertainment Series (WES) is disappointed to announce that the debut event, which was originally scheduled for this Saturday, June 4th, at the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham in the United Kingdom, has been postponed to July 9th.

Gzim Selmani, Legion of Pain & WES co-promoter, had the following to say:
“We have all worked extremely hard on this event, however, things have not been going our way for us. Originally, the first event was set to take place in the UAE, but due to the sad & untimely passing of Sheikh Khalifa, we decided out of respect to change the event to Nottingham.

“It was a huge undertaking to move the event to a completely different continent on three weeks’ notice. Unfortunately, with the Queen’s jubilee celebrations and the impact that is having on the events sector in the UK, and with just three weeks to prepare, it proved to be an impossible task.

“I want to apologise to the fans for any inconvenience caused. We will make it up to you all on July 9th with an incredible show! Also, a big thank you to everyone who has supported WES so far. Since our launch, the response from fans, media, and fellow wrestlers has been really moving. Thank you!

“See you all on July 9th!”

The show was set to feature a number of former WWE stars, including Braun Strowman (Adam Scherr), Lana, Nia Jax and of course the Authors of Pain.

However, according to another former WWE star Chelsea Green, the show has been cancelled.

Green commented on a Fite TV tweet advertising the show, and simply said it has been cancelled, but did not provide further information.

Actually it’s cancelled.
