A STATEMENT REGARDING CRYPTIC OFFERINGS
I, David Lorenz, the promoter and owner of PRW would like to apologize publicly to both wrestlers and fans for the complete mishandling of this weekend’s Cryptic Offerings. Many of you came out to show the people of Detroit a good time. The entire roster put on a hell of a good show. Despite this, my own mismanagement of funds prior to the event and failure to properly advertise led to a small crowd turn-out and inability to pay most of the talent on the show.
While it can not make up for the distress this caused, I promise to have the entire roster paid as soon as I can make up the money with my main job.
Secondly, I would like to thank the small but passionate group of fans who showed up to this event. Unfortunately, as it stands, this will be the last event put on by Painted Red Wrestling for the foreseeable future.
To those asking when Cryptic Offerings will be available on Youtube, the short answer is that it will not be. I am sending all the footage of individual matches to the wrestlers to use and distribute as they see fit. As for now, Painted Red Wrestling is suspending all activities until all wrestlers are paid for their hard work.
Thank you for all your support. We are dedicated to making this right.
-David Lorenz
