TNA champion to miss RevPro event due to ‘scheduling change’
TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater has been removed from his scheduled appearance for indie promotion Revolution Pro Wrestling in London this weekend.
Slater was supposed to face a mystery opponent at the Sunday, October 5 Live in London event. Instead, it will now be Luke Jacobs taking on a yet-to-be-named opponent at the show. A scheduling change is the reason Slater is unable to compete.
Due to a scheduling change Leon Slater has had to withdraw from this Sunday's Live In London.

“Due to a scheduling change Leon Slater has had to withdraw from this Sunday’s Live In London,” RevPro announced. “LUKE JACOBS will now step up to take on a mystery opponent!”
The 21-year-old Slater is from the United Kingdom and signed with TNA near the end of 2023. He will be a member of Team TNA on Tuesday’s NXT vs. TNA Showdown special, teaming up with Mike Santana, Moose & Frankie Kazarian in a Survivor Series-style elimination match. Their NXT opponents will be Ricky Saints, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans & Myles Borne.
Not long after Showdown, Slater will defend his X-Division Championship against Evans at TNA’s Bound for Glory pay-per-view. The PPV is being held in Lowell, Massachusetts on Sunday, October 12.
The RevPro Live in London show will feature Sha Samuels vs. Michael Oku for the Undisputed British Heavyweight Championship. Alex Windsor vs. Nina Samuels is among the other matches set.
