A wrestling promoter in the United Kingdom has been unable to get in touch with Sean Waltman (a/k/a X-Pac) after booking him for a show this weekend.
According to a statement on the IPW: UK Facebook account, the former WWE Superstar was due to arrive in the UK on Saturday at 2:00 p.m. for a show he was scheduled to wrestle on today. According to the IPW: UK promoter, “nobody has heard from him” as of Saturday night.
Here is the statement
X-PAC SITUATION
:: With regret, unless a miracle occurs, X-Pac will no longer be appearing at the Extreme Measures 2017 event later today.
He was scheduled to land in the UK on Saturday at 2pm, but 12 hours later and nobody has heard from him. We wish Sean well and hope he is safe. Sometimes you do everything you can but it’s completely out of our hands.
:: We spent Saturday attempting to check if flights were possible for an international name to replace him, but at such short notice the options were next to none. As a result, we have been searching up and down the UK for available replacements and as you will see on the day tomorrow, we think we’ve found the best option at short notice.
:: All other advertised wrestlers are in the country and ready for the show.
:: Jimmy Havoc will be joining the Meet & Greet to replace X-Pac.
:: Anybody who had an Interval photo package, The London Riots will replace X-Pac in the photo package. You’re also immediately given a £10 reduction on package you’ve purchased, or if you wish you may obtain a full refund. Just let us know at the event.
:: Furthermore, if you’ve placed an order for the X-Pac IPW:UK tee, you may either keep your purchase of the tee as some kind of collectors item, or have a complete refund.
Any further questions can be directed to us by private message, we will endeavor to reply to all messages before door time.
Waltman is OK according to friend and The Tomorrow Show co-host Kevin Undergaro. Undergaro said Sunday afternoon that Waltman is dealing with some issues.

Breaking his silence on the ordeal, Waltman said Monday night that he’ll talk about his “crazy weekend” this Wednesday (on his podcast, X-Pac 12360).
I've had a crazy weekend. I'll get into it on the show Wednesday. Way too much to tweet about. Still mentally strong & healthy. No relapse.
