It was announced on Sunday night that Comcast was shutting down G4 after its relaunch a year ago.
A statement by Comcast CEO Dave Scott read, “Over the past several months, we worked hard to generate that interest in G4, but viewership is low and the network has not achieved sustainable financial results.”
According to ex-employees who told the Washington Post, the crew from “Arena,” a show produced as part of a deal with the WWE, quit last week.
“Arena” was announced in June, and at the time, G4 and WWE put out a press release touting it.
WWE star Xavier Woods and Gina Darling were the hosts of “Arena.” As seen below, both reacted to the news of G4 shutting down on social media.
