ORIGINAL: PWInsider reports that FloSports has told WWN that they will not be carrying this weekend’s EVOLVE shows (Saturday night show in Michigan and Sunday night show in Illinois) or any of their other future events. FloSports has told their employees that they will no longer be traveling to those shows this weekend. WWN is now deciding what to do.

This comes after FloSports filed a lawsuit against WWN, claiming that WWN gave them false data when negotiating their terms with FloSports. WWN is planning to countersue, likely for breach of contract as FloSports has told them that they are going to withhold payments due to WWN from July 2017 on. This leaves WWN in the position of having increased their number of shows per month (increased to five as part of their deal with FloSports) but won’t be getting any payment for that content for July, August, and September.
