TNA Provides Update On Destination X After FAA Grounding Order & Disruptions
TNA has announced that Destination X will still be going ahead as planned on Sunday, November 15.
The FAA grounded all flights across the US on Friday for over four hours, disrupting travel plans for thousands nationwide and internationally, but also throwing a huge question mark over wrestling events scheduled for the weekend.
TNA sent out a press release on Saturday to confirm that their show is still a go for Sunday at the Edmonton EXPO Centre in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
"After a wild 24 hours, we are really excited for the returning Destination X on Sunday afternoon," TNA President Carlos Silva is quoted. "As always, card subject to change — and yes, there will be changes to the originally scheduled lineup, forced by travel predicaments that are affecting travelers around the world."
"That said," he continued. "I'm proud of the way all at TNA Wrestling are banding together to deliver what will be a great show. In fact, we have two stars offering to take a short flight within the US, then drive more than 600 miles, just because they want to be a part of Destination X."
The Sunday show will kick off with a Countdown To Destination X pre-show beginning at 4 PM ET, leading into the main Destination X card beginning at 5 PM ET.
