The Wrestling Observer is reporting that David Benoit, the son of the late Chris Benoit, may no longer be making his in-ring debut for the Hart Legacy promotion in July as previously reported, despite being announced otherwise on Twitter by Smith Hart, the older brother of WWE Hall of Famer Bret "Hitman" Hart.

The reported reasoning behind the possible cancellation is that Benoit has never actually been formally trained to wrestle, but was convinced by Hart to go ahead with the show anyway, thinking that it would not only help ticket sales, but also draw a lot of attention to the event he was being advertised for.

Upon hearing that Benoit would be teaming with Chavo Guerrero at the event, Chris Jericho - someone who is close to Benoit - is reported to have contacted the Hart Legacy promotion and was said to be furious for advertising Benoit for a match because Benoit had not been formally trained to wrestle. Jericho reportedly tried getting the match stopped, which led to Chavo cancelling his booking for the event.

The Wrestling Observer further states that Chavo was told by Hart that Benoit "had some in-ring experience" and would be fine to take part in their scheduled match. Hart is then said to have reportedly told Jericho that they weren't planning on having Benoit actually wrestle, but just take part in some sort of angle. Reportedly, Hart also told Benoit that he still wanted him in a match and attempted to convince Benoit that he could get through it without any actual training beforehand.
