Scott Steiner Pulled From Upcoming Event?, Impact Live Tweet Episode Tonight, Nakamura Added
- As noted earlier, Citi Field in Flushing, NY will be hosting a Legends of Wrestling event on Sunday, June 7th which will feature over 30 professional wrestlers including Ric Flair, Bret Hart and Bill Goldberg. Scott Steiner was originally scheduled for the event, however a source told me that he has been pulled following the controversy from his recent incident with Hulk Hogan's wife.
I reached out to music producer and event promoter Louis "Uncle Louie" Gregory, who declined to comment and said to visit TheLegendsOfWrestling.com for updates. As of this writing, Steiner remains on the home page of the site.
- TNA is promoting tonight's Impact Wrestling as the "first ever live tweet episode." Live fan tweets will be shown o-screen during tonight's show.
- Ring of Honor announced that Shinsuke Nakamura has been added to the upcoming ROH/NJPW shows on May 12-13 from the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, and May 15-16 from the Ted Reeve Arena in Toronto. Hiroshi Tanahashi, Kazuchika Okada, Jushin Thunder Liger, Takaaki Watanabe, KUSHIDA and Gedo have also been announced for the shows.
