FloSports is reportedly seeking over $1 million in damages.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, attorney Samuel Heller issued the following response to <a href=\"http:\/\/pwinsider.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PWInsider.com<\/a>: &#8220;While we prefer not to litigate cases in the media, it is clear that FloSports is attempting to use the press to create leverage in this dispute by spreading false, defamatory and misleading statements about WWN.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In reality, FloSports has wholly failed to honor its contractual obligation to promote WWN\u2019s events, and has been unable to successfully integrate WWN into its mismanaged and failing subscription streaming platform. At no time has WWN provided incorrect, false or misleading information and this lawsuit is nothing more than a transparent effort by FloSports to avoid its responsibility to WWN, its talent and its fans. We are confident that the litigation will result favorably to WWN.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s POV:<\/strong><\/span> The sad reality is that this is the most attention FloSports and WWN have generated since the initial launch of Evolve and the other WWN promotions on the FloSlam streaming service. FloSports made a lot of noise when they entered the market about other potential pro wrestling streaming partners, but sadly few have materialized and their marketing has been atrocious. Obviously, we&#8217;ll let the situation play out in court given that two sides have conflicting stories. It&#8217;s worth noting that the Evolve shows this weekend will air on FloSlam as scheduled.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-282280355\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FloSports filed a lawsuit against&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":1142,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[320,1288,1262,1383],"class_list":["post-29433","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-misc_news","tag-evolve","tag-floslam","tag-flosports","tag-wwn"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
