Alex Shelley Cancels Bookings Due To Injury

The current IMPACT World Champion Alex Shelley has canceled bookings with Game Changer Wrestling and Wrestling Revolver due to being injured.

Shelley stated he suffered a two location calf strain in the gastroc muscle belly and the myotendinous junction in his IMPACT World Championship defense against Jonathan Gresham.

He was originally scheduled to face off against Masha Slamovich at last night’s GCW “Please, Buddy” event in St Louis as well as announced for Wrestling Revolver’s Los Angeles debut on Thursday November 16th. Joey Janela was Shelley’s replacement in the match against Masha.

The current Prestige World Champion is also forced to pull out in his match at Prestige Wrestling’s “Alive!” on November 12th. Instead he will part of a post-show meet and greet.

There’s no word as to how long Shelley will be sidelined

It’s not much – I let @IMPACTWRESTLING handle big things. I just wanted to apologize to @GCWrestling_ and @PWRevolver fans for being advertised and having to cancel. I love both companies dearly and their fan bases, and if I could wrestle, I would.

Also, if you will miss me, and maybe want to see WHY I suffered a two location calf strain in the gastroc muscle belly and the myotendinous junction? Watch this match. Seriously. Wrestling is a physical sport and @IMPACTWRESTLING thrives on that. pic.twitter.com/XUAbNfXpUL
