<p>The Authors of Pain&#8217;s debut WES show was set to take place live from Nottingham, United Kingdom this weekend but has recently been canceled after first being postponed after the original show was set to take place last month. </p>



<p>Several superstars have spoken out about this, but <a href="http://www.patreon.com/fightful" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Fightful Select</a> recently shared the fact that the show was canceled due to mismanagement and poor ticket sales. </p>

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;The ambitious company has canceled their second show, blaming talent not showing up on the event being canceled. However, it was made clear by numerous sources that mismanagement and poor ticket sales were the reason.&#8221;</p></blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;Matt Rehwoldt was the first to speak out this go around, saying that they asked him to pass on another booking to work their show, with the understanding he’d be paid upfront. It was confirmed to us by others that he was effectively ghosted and never sent an agreement after that.&#8221;</p></blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;The company claimed it paid talent on the show, which is half true, and only because they had to. We’re told after a talent management group had several talent messed about due to the first WES show, they required payment upfront before allowing any of their talent to be booked. We’ve confirmed Moose, Big Damo, Steph De Lander, and Eric Young were among those that have been paid. Several were given flight credits to stay home as well, but that’s where the positives ended.&#8221;</p></blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;We’re told that Nia Jax was paid about half of what she’d agreed to, and only due to being paid half up front being in her agreement. She had made it clear as far back as June 23 that she wouldn’t be making the show, due to the unprofessional nature of the promotion, and had actually offered to pay for a fan’s travel costs to help them out after the first cancelation.&#8221;</p></blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;In addition, we’ve heard from numerous UK talent that has not been paid for the show, contrary to WES’ statement. Also, talent had not received pertinent hotel or visa information that would have even made the trip a reality. Several talent on the show found out the event was canceled when the social media announcement was made public.&#8221;</p></blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;In total, there were between 300 to 400 tickets sold. Mojo informed us he was imminently making a statement and was already hoping to try to make it up to fans and talent that were impacted by holding a meet and greet. He let us know that he was excited to return to the ring at the event. We’ve heard from several talent associated with both sets of cancelations who made it clear they’d never work for the company again. Many of the planned roster had even worked the event as a favor to the former Akam and Rezar.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
