Mixed Match Challenge has gotten off to a rough start so far, as earlier this week it was announced that Alexa Bliss had been pulled from the tournament after it was revealed she was dealing with numbness in her arm.
Alexa Bliss was replaced by Ember Moon who teamed with Braun Strowman on Tuesday night.
Now WWE has announced that Sasha Banks has also been pulled from the tournament, and Mickie James will act as her replacement when she teams up with Bobby Lashley.
Cathy Kelley did not reveal any details regarding Sasha’s injury in the official announcement video, but she did note that fans can vote on a team name for Bobby Lashley and Mickie James on the Mixed Match Challenge Facebook page.
