On March 23, Future Stars of Wrestling will hold its Chris Bey Benefit Show, raising funds for Bey, who suffered a neck injury in October.
Appearing on Fightful's In The Weeds with Jeremy Lambert & Joel Pearl, FSW Promoter Joe DeFalco confirmed Bey will appear on the show and that he's helped put some matches together.
"Initially, when we planned on doing it in January, there was no thought in my head about Chris because he had not progressed at all. He didn't come back to Vegas until almost Christmas time. At that point, there had been very little progress. For the January show, my thought process was Chris was probably not going to be there. Miraculously, over the next month, the progress had been tremendous. Yes, Chris will be at the show. Spoiler alert, he probably won't come out until late, probably the main event, after the main event possibly. Chris is 100% behind it. I reached out to Chris to say, 'Give me your thoughts on this stuff.' He had some ideas about the battle royal and putting different people in different spot. I wouldn't say he had a ton, but he was definitely involved in some of the matches you're going to see. They are Chris Bey ideas," he said.
