Severe Weather Causes Satellite Issues, AEW Battle Of The Belts VII Cuts Out
The stormy weather in Calgary on Saturday night brought some trouble for AEW, as the feed for Battle of the Belts VII cut out mid-broadcast.
AEW Battle of the Belts VII was in the middle of the AEW Women’s World Title match between Toni Storm and Taya Valkyrie when the live feed cut out. AEW then aired commercials before showing footage from this past week’s episode of AEW Collision.
When the live feed returned it was explained that the weather in Calgary caused satellite issues. It is true that there were very severe t-storms going on in the city when the feed cut out. It was also noted that Storm retained the title, and the show will be available in full on the TNT app.
