The match will be rebooked, and no injury was announced. ## The quick version - Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor were set to face Hyperactive at EVE on Sunday, Nov. 8, in Wolverhampton, England. - EVE promoter Dann Read said the match is postponed and will be rebooked as soon as possible. - He said it was a joint decision with the wrestlers and was not forced on EVE. No injury was announced. AEW Women's World Tag Team Champions The Brawling Birds, Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor, are off Pro-Wrestling: EVE's Nov. 8 show, EVE promoter Dann Read said on Nov. 5. He was speaking on Fightful's "In the Weeds" podcast, the morning after the women's Blood and Guts match on AEW Dynamite. ## What Read said The Birds were advertised against Hyperactive (Anita Vaughan and Safire Reed) at EVE's Elite Encounters II in Wolverhampton. Read said: "Those matches do have a massive effect on you." He said the decision was to "play safe" given their Full Gear title defense, and that the match would be rebooked "as soon as we can do it in the future." He added: "It's not a thing that's being forced on us or anything along those lines." Read said he had no new date. He also said he was still working on opponents for Hyperactive on Sunday, since he had only just learned of the change, per F4W Online. ## What is known, and not - No injury to Hayter or Windsor has been announced, PWMania noted. - AEW has not commented in the coverage we reviewed. - Hyperactive are still on EVE's Friday, Nov. 6 show, where they challenge French Art (Cory Zero and JGU) for the EVE Tag Team Titles, per F4W Online. ## What it means for Full Gear The Birds defend against Wrathlander (Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron) at Full Gear on Saturday, Nov. 14, in Phoenix. Both teams were on the winning side of the women's Blood and Guts match on Nov. 4, per our results story, so they were allies that night. The postponement gives the champions about a week between the cage match and the pay-per-view. ## What to watch A new date for Birds vs. Hyperactive, and who EVE books against Hyperactive on Sunday. **How we know.** Source: Dann Read's on-record comments on Fightful's "In the Weeds", as reported by Fightful, F4W Online, POST Wrestling, PWMania and Wrestling Headlines.
