Demonetisation forces postponement of Pro Wrestling League

November 28, 2016 20:32

Demonetisation seems to have hit the sporting arena as well with the second edition of Pro Wrestling League being postponed from its original scheduled start of December 15 as the franchises and stakeholders need more time to re-plan and re-structure their schemes.

"Post demonetisation, the PWL franchises and the stakeholders have asked for time to re-structure and re-plan their schemes. Hence, the date of the League had to be

postponed," the promoters of the PWL, Pro Sportify director Vishal Gurnani said.

"The revised dates would be announced on November 30th," he added.

Meanwhile, the sources claimed that the PWL-2 is likely to begin not before the last week of December.

"The League will be re-scheduled to the last week of December. Also the players' auction, which was supposed to be held in mid-November, will now take place 15 days prior to the commencement of the tournament," the source said.
