Update: Magnum TA has commented about not being allowed into the Magic Kingdom.
Original: Mae Young Classic competitor Tessa Blanchard noted on Twitter that her stepfather and siblings were denied entry into Disney’s Magic Kingdom. She said that he was denied entry because he is paralyzed. She is referring to NWA legend Magnum T.A. His paralysis stems from a 1986 car accident in Charlotte, North Carolina that caused his C-4 and C-5 vertebrae to “explode”. Many believe that he was going to win the NWA World Championship at Starrcade 86 and would have gone on to be one of the biggest stars in the history of the wrestling business but the accident signaled the end of his wrestling career.

Kairi Sane is booked for this weekend’s NXT live events in Flordia so she has apparently been cleared by doctors after suffering a concussion at the Mae Young Classic.
Sane has also been dealing with neck pain but apparently, it’s not serious enough to keep doctors from clearing her. Most fans in the United States will get a chance to see her in the Mae Young Classic when episodes are added to the WWE Network on demand section on August 28th. The second batch of episodes will be uploaded on September 4th and the live finale will air live at 10 pm eastern on September 12th after Smackdown Live.
