RevPro Wrestling took to Twitter on Saturday to announce that Gabe Kidd has not been cleared to wrestle at tomorrow’s ‘High Stakes’ event. Due to this, Trent Seven will be replacing Kidd to face off against Shingo Takagi.
Kidd suffered an injury at NJPW ‘New Beginning’ in Osaka.
You can check out the official announcement below:
“Unfortunately, as a result of injuries sustained in last weeks historic NJPW cage match, Gabe Kidd has not been cleared to compete at tomorrows High Stakes. A late call which nobody (including Gabe) wanted to make, however a call we had to make.
Whilst we are disappointed we believe the health of our wrestlers is paramount and that we should be thinking of tomorrow, not just today.
Trent Seven, coming off the back of his show stealing performance against Connor Mills, will now take his place competing against Shingo Takagi.
We thank you for your understanding & hope you will join us in wishing Gabe Kidd a speedy recovery.”
