In mid-May, 5 Star Wrestling made news when they offered CM Punk $1 million to compete in their upcoming 128-man tournament, which was intended to start in June. Punk never acknowledged the offer from 5 Star Wrestling.

The promotion is now saying the entire tournament has been rescheduled to start in February of 2018. According to F4WOnline’s Daily Update, talent was told the change was due to the Manchester bombing that occurred on May 22, which wasn’t believed to be the real reason. Via their Facebook page, 5 Star Wrestling released a statement:

“JUNE 1ST 2017

We know this will be disappointing to many fans as it means we will not be running any further shows in 2017 but we assure you, this is not a decision we have taken lightly and it is a move that will greatly improve the shows we host going forward.
