World Wrestling Entertainment issued the following press release this
afternoon:
STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--World Wrestling
Entertainment®’s live, internationally televised broadcast, WWE Monday Night
RAW®, (USA Network, 9:00 PM ET) to take place at the Pepsi Center in Denver next
Monday, May 25th is in jeopardy of being cancelled by the Denver
Nuggets. The WWE and Denver Nuggets are currently at an impasse in resolving a
scheduling debacle by the team and the Pepsi Center. A sell-out crowd is
expected to attend the WWE show at the same time the Denver Nuggets are slated
to square off against the Los Angeles Lakers for Game 4 of the NBA Western
Conference Finals. WWE has held the May 25th date with the Pepsi
Center since August 15, 2008.
“Even though the Denver Nuggets had a strong team
this year and were projected to make the playoffs, obviously Nuggets and Pepsi
Center owner Stan Kroenke did not have enough faith in his own team to hold the
May 25th date for a potential playoff game,” said WWE Chairman Vince
McMahon.
