AR FOX COMMENTS ON EVOLVE SITUATION, INTIMATES HE IS DONE WITH PROMOTION
by Mike Johnson @ 3:24 PM on 4/8/2015
On his Facebook Page, AR Fox, while posting a photo of the announced EVOLVE lineup for next week from their website, wrote the following:
"Just sayin. This is the cards for next weeks EVOLVE shows. It's 9 days away and not one match announced on this card. And since there's a huge lack of communication checking the "DGUSA" website is how I know if I'm booked or not. So when there was about two weeks left I booked myself. And now they wanna take it personally that I was making sure I lined up booking so I didn't have an empty weekend without even tryin to understand. Cause honestly my loyalty was to them of if we just talked like "adults" for a few mins I woulda ended up doin EVOLVE anyway cause that's how I am. But instead I got responses in all caps with cusses. And tryin to future endeavor me like the WWE. Tellin me they wish me the best and hope to see me on Lucha Underground when a few months back they held me back from it when Lucha sent me details on a contract ha. And yea I didn't like they flights they got me cause they were to the wrong f**kin state of course I didn't like having my girl drive me an hour and a half to the airport and then pick me from there which means we'd hit tolls 4xs when they coulda just flew my from CT (like every other promoter that flies me) where the airport is 30 mins away from me with no tolls. So yea man they just made this shit into a storyline but this is what it is. Flights wouldnt of been an issue I still drive 15 hrs to shows. It was jus that our relation is goin on 5 years. I jus want everyone to Know I'm cool n jus wanna wrestle but they got sensitive way too quick over a booking."
So, there's his side of the issues we wrote about yesterday.

AR FOX GONE FROM WWNLIVE, GABE SAPOLSKY RESPONDS TO FOX'S CLAIMS
by Mike Johnson @ 4:29 PM on 4/8/2015
It appears AR Fox is indeed done with WWNLive and their branded events following a fallout where Fox booked himself elsewhere when EVOLVE is running Florida next week.
PWInsider.com contacted Gabe Sapolsky regarding AR Fox's Facebook statement (which we ran earlier today):
"I am very disappointed to read Fox's statement. He has been a very valuable member of our roster and I've enjoyed working with him through the years. We've had some great times together on the road.
I am very disheartened to read this but I must clarify a few things:
Fox confirmed the April 17th and 18th dates via text with me on March 17th. I contacted him on Facebook messenger on Monday to go over his matches for Florida. He then informed he had taken another booking on April 18th.
Without getting into great detail on the conversation, I treated Fox with the respect he deserved after everything we had been through together. He claimed that I "cussed" him". I said the F word once in the context of saying, "This is F'd up."
Fox also claims I used all caps, implying I was yelling at him. The only word in capital is the word "Never" in the context that we never canceled a booking on him.
I am very disappointed and sorry that our relationship has ended this way and wish Fox the greatest of success."
