WWN Says WrestlExpo Will Follow The Lead Of WrestleMania; Tryout Set For The End Of March Still On
WWN, the parent company of EVOLVE Wrestling, has released a statement regarding their upcoming WrestlExpo convention amid growing concerns about the Coronavirus outbreak.
Much like Wrestlecon, which is another convention set to take place during WrestleMania 36 weekend in Tampa, WWN says WrestlExpo will follow the lead of WrestleMania when deciding the fate of the event. In addition, the WWN Recruitment Camp try out that is set for the end of March in Port Richey, Florida, is still set to take place as scheduled at this time.
