WWE Responds To The Tragedy In Manchester
Earlier this week, WWE released a statement to TMZ, indicating they were working with local authorities to determine whether or not the show should go on as planned:
“WWE offers its heartfelt condolences to those affected by this tragedy. We are working with local authorities on the appropriate course of action as it relates to our event scheduled for Tuesday, June 6 at the Manchester Arena.”
With the show now cancelled, it likely means authorities in Manchester advised against keeping the planned date.
My thoughts are with all of those affected by the senseless tragedy in Manchester. #PrayforManchester
