    partial lockdown extended til the 19th April which is one week before this event

    doubt it will happen now, best would be a postponement for after the summer

    the government have only postponed until 19th of April?

    Question now is whether WWE will actually reschedule or move it to the UK PC

    No doubt wwe could have the show written and planned out through networking but then you could have logistic issues and all that not been possible with travel bans etc

    There were TV tapings scheduled for the week after Dublin in Bournemouth with Glasgow been next on the 24th/25th July. Hard to knw what will happen but very much hoping for a reschedule

    There's a chance that Live Nation got word of measures to come and jumped the gun with their announcement. The same way pubs across the country announced they were closing just hours before Leo said they all had to shut - and the very same thing happened again with shops before the latest 'essential workers' announcement.

    I think It was just a typo Tbh
    They took the March statement which had the 29th in it, and just put April in

    Then they edited it fairly quickly


    The next extension will be early May you’d assume

    and just restart it in september ish

    They will prob postpone the TV tapings for the start of May and hopefully get up and running again for the Glasgow tapings in July and maybe have another set of tapings in August/September which will lead up to Dublin

    Hard to knw what's going on atm in WWE or the world for that fact

    Seems they ran out of recordings. Or taking a break to spread them out. This week was a look back at the beginnings of NXT UK.

    There's a few hurdles, I guess.

    I really can't see big events like this being allowed this year. They've already extended the ban on till September, and I'd be surprised if that doesn't get extended on till about Xmas.

    I've also worries about NXT UK in general; I'd worry Vince could scrap the idea of a UK brand from a financial side of things if they can't run shows.

    All of that is presuming people will feel safe to go.

    Sigh. I hope everything is "better" by then, but unless we take super strict measures (as in, shutting the border to non-essential travel, and focusing on just getting Ireland back to normal without risking new infections getting in), I'm rather pessimistic about this.
