UPDATED: Evolve Fires Joey Styles
UPDATE: The iPPV is being edited to remove Styles’ remarks.
– Once the show was complete, Styles was apologizing to everyone in the back before he left the show.
– The line was not something scripted ahead of time, as Evolve would not want to hurt their relationship with WWE or their new deal with FloSPorts
