With rising cases across the world for the Omicron Variant of Covid-19, many were wondering about the announced show that was to occur on the 30th of December at Place Bell in Laval, Quebec. Well, those wondering if the event would still be on, just got confirmation that the event was postponed to March of 2022. As Ringside News exclusively reported, WWE is prepared for every possible scenario.
WWE recently canceled other dates for their Canadian tour, as we previously reported, and now this. Quebec and other provinces in Canada are tightening restrictions and countries in Europe are as well. Many feel that it’s just a matter of time before many more shows for WWE are postponed or canceled.
“Coronavirus doesn’t take a Christmas break,” Germany’s Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Tuesday. We cannot – and must not – close our eyes to this next wave, which is beginning to loom over us.”
Pat Laprade on Twitter announced: “Just got the confirmation, the WWE Laval house show is postponed to Sunday, March 6, 2022, still at the Bell Place.”
Interestingly enough, the Toronto show set for the 29th is still set to go on as of this writing, but with the Omicron Variant is spreading like wildfire. Anything is possible, and yes, meaning even a cancellation to that Toronto show. The spreading of the variant in the province of Quebec is a tad more alarming though for right now.
The Premiere of that province, Francois Legault, is set to speak at 6 PM EST and is said to be adding even more restrictions for the people in the area. We’ll keep you posted should anything change. As we covered previously, many WWE superstars have already tested positive for the virus.
