Berwyn Eagles Club Did Not Have Entertainment License Revoked After Alleged Stabbing Incent
On April 9, it was announced that Berwyn Eagles Club in Chicago, IL would no longer hold wrestling events after an alleged stabbing incident on March 28 during a Ruthless Pro Wrestling event.
It was reported that the venue had lost its license as a result of the alleged incident, but according to the Chicago Sun Times, “Berwyn’s city attorney and chief of police confirmed with a reporter that the venue’s entertainment license — necessary for hosting wrestling shows — has not been revoked as a result of the events on March 28.”
The Berwyn Police Department confirmed that no stabbing occurred and the case has been closed.
In the incident, Krule got into a scuffle with a fan, and multiple wrestlers alleged that there was an attempted stabbing. Other wrestlers said that there was no knife involved. Video showed Krule throwing the first punches and then wrestlers jumping on the fan, but no sign of a knife.
AAW will hold the final event at Berwyn Eagles Club on Friday.

A GoFundMe has been launched to help the owner of the venue as wrestling was the primary source of income.
