As previously mentioned, GFW canceled an upcoming live show in Bridgeport, CT on August 6. In their announcement, GFW said that it was “due to unforeseen circumstances and logistical challenges.”
According to PWInsider, the word they got is that the show was canceled due to poor ticket sales. The Bridgeport, CT show was way behind the other two weekend shows in the area in Long Island on August 4 and Staten Island on August 5, despite it getting a lot of promotion and plugs from a major FM radio station in the area. Three shows in a row in the same general area seems like it was probably a bit too much.
GFW’s announcement on the cancellation:
Bridgeport, Conn. Live Event Update:
Global Force Wrestling regretfully announces that the Impact Live Event at the Ballpark at Harbor Yard, scheduled for Sunday afternoon, August 6, has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances and logistical challenges. All fans who purchased tickets for the Bridgeport event will be fully refunded. GFW also will offer all who purchased tickets to the Bridgeport show complimentary tickets to either of the other area Live Event shows that will be held that weekend: Friday, August 4, on Long Island, N.Y., at The Sports Arena in St. James (starting at 8 p.m.), and Saturday, August 5, at Staten Island’s Richmond County Bank Ballpark at St. George (starting at 6 p.m.).
