EXTREME RISING UPDATES [UPDATED]

By Mike Johnson on 2014-04-20 11:17:58
Rhino has pulled off this Friday's Extreme Rising event in Philadelphia. He was slated to face Devon "Crowbar" Storm.

Sabu is also off this Friday's event, although he will be appearing on the Saturday anniversary show. Sabu double-booked himself with Big Time Wrestling and will apparently do a one shot for each promotion as a way to make good.

2:45 PM Update - PWInsider.com has also confirmed that Jay Bradley has pulled off of this weekend's events.

Extreme Rising promoter Steve O'Neill contacted PWInsider.com stating he would be releasing a statement this evening and would sit down for an interview but not before the statement was released.

O'Neill is also teasing that the Rising events will still be on iPPV, writing on his Facebook page, "Next Friday STEVE O'NEILL will have a cup of vodka aka truth serum and a microphone. My friends at the former ECW ARENA I speak some serious truth. And F**K YOU to all the non-believers." He followed up that he might put it on iPPV and when asked about that, responded, "All I can say is I've been working on an alternate solution. Other "vendors" can't hang so I have to get sh** done myself! Monday! Monday! Monday!"

As of this writing, Luke Hawx still has physical possession of the promotion's championship.
