Visa issues continue to plague the upcoming WrestleCon event during WrestleMania weekend in New York. Now, it appears that Dragon Gate talent will no longer be able to make the trip due to visa issues. WrestleCon announced the unfortunate news in a lengthy statement on Twitter. Apparently, an immigration attorney was hired in an attempt to resolve the situation. Ultimately, WrestleCon’s efforts proved to be unsuccessful:

Black Label Pro also responded to WrestleCon’s statement, revealing they’re having the same issues, and Masato Yoshino will no longer be making the trip to New York to face Jon Gresham:
This unfortunately applies to our Adventures in Wrestling event as well. Masato Yoshino will no longer be appearing due to visa issues. We will be announcing the replacement opponent for Jon Gresham very shortly.
