New Japan Pro Wrestling issued an apology as the beginning of its Battle in the Valley pay-per-view was plagued with technical issues.
Irritated viewers first took to social media as the pre-show suffered technical issues on both YouTube and FITE TV.
Those issues then persisted into the beginning of the pay-per-view stream on FITE TV, which began showing only a distorted image and featuring no audio.
We hope you can watch and see us soon 🙏 #njbitv
