Battleground Championship Wrestling's Tim Embler backed off allegations that WWE pulled D-Von Dudley from the promotion's "Tribute to the Extreme" last weekend at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia after stating the promotion received a legal letter from WWE the day before Dudley was pulled.
In a Facebook posting yesterday, Embler wrote:
"I have a follow up statement to the situation with the WWE that I addressed in the ring this past Saturday.
After having several conversations today I now know that everything that went down with D-Von was a misunderstanding.
The wwe did not intentionally pull Dvon to hurt our show.
I won't get into those details but if I had the information then that I have now I wouldn't have made the comments I made.
It felt as if we were under attack and I reacted in the defense of our company.
I can't thank everyone enough for the support you showed and the future for The Battleground is limitless! Have an amazing rest of the holiday season and just remember... this March... A Champion Shall Rise!
-Tim"
