Ricky Sosa will not be competing in this year’s 16 Carat Gold tournament.
The current wXw European Champion Ricky Sosa has been pulled from wXw’s 16 Carat Gold due to a ‘last-minute major career opportunity’.

Although a replacement hasn’t been named yet, wXw did state that a replacement will be announced. Sosa was originally scheduled to face Titus Alexander in the opening round of the tournament.
