WWE said in a video today that Alexa Bliss “suffered an arm injury at the hands of Ronda Rousey” during their match at Hell in a Cell and “Bliss began to complain of soreness on Monday before waking up with numbness in her left arm Tuesday morning. After seeking medical attention, Alexa received word that she is not cleared for WWE Mixed Match Challenge or live events this weekend.”
No word if the injury is real or a work, but Alexa will be replaced by Ember Moon tonight on Mixed Match Challenge. It’ll be Ember Moon & Braun Strowman vs. Natalya & Kevin Owens. It seems like it won’t be a permanent replacement and Alexa Bliss should be back on the team when she’s “cleared.”
Mixed Match Challenge season two debuts tonight on Facebook Watch at 10 PM ET after SmackDown.
