It looks like WWE has pulled Simon Gotch from the road following his backstage fight with Sin Cara on Tuesday prior to Smackdown. Gotch did not appear at Friday’s live event in Newark, Delaware. His tag team partner, Aiden English, wrestled in a singles match. In the latest Wrestling Observer newsletter, Dave Meltzer noted that Sin Cara got the best of Gotch and the fight took place in the catering area. There’s no word on what started the fight.
English lost to Apollo Crews at the show in Newark, DE on Friday night. Sin Cara teamed with Jack Swagger and they lost to The Shining Stars. If you missed our initial post on the backstage incident, click here to read more.
