Indie promotion Black Label Pro cancels events, going on hiatus
Indie promotion Black Label Pro has canceled all of its upcoming events and is going on hiatus.
Black Label Pro issued a statement on Tuesday informing fans of the news, noting that the hiatus is “for the time being.” All tickets that have been purchased are in the process of being refunded.
“Unfortunately we have decided to cancel Fancy Wrestling and the rest of the events upcoming,” the promotion announced. “We are going on a hiatus for the time being. All tickets have already been submitted for refunds. Thank you for all the support.”
“Mentally exhausted,” Black Label promoter Mikey Blanton tweeted. “Just need time to breathe.”
Fancy Wrestling was scheduled to take place in Crown Point, Indiana on Saturday, October 12 and was going to feature Black Label Pro Champion Raj Dhesi (the former Jinder Mahal) defending his title against Calvin Tankman.
Based out of the Midwest, Black Label Pro has existed since 2017. Their last show before going on hiatus was September’s Crowning Glory event from Chicago.
