WWE News: Sasha Banks Out With Injury, Pulled From Mixed Match Challenge

Season two of WWE’s Mixed Match Challenge kicked off this week with Ember Moon and Braun Strowman picking up a win over Natalya and Kevin Owens, plus AJ Styles and Charlotte Flair defeated the team of Jey Uso and Naomi.

Now of course, Ember Moon was not originally Braun Strowman’s tag team partner, however an arm injury suffered by Alexa Bliss on Sunday at Hell In A Cell created the need for a last-minute change. Today, WWE has revealed an injury to another female RAW Superstar, forcing another adjustment to the Mixed Match Challenge.

While she was scheduled to compete next week alongside Bobby Lashley, RAW Superstar Sasha Banks is now suffering from an undisclosed injury and as announced by WWE, she has been removed for the entirety of the Mixed Match Challenge. This differs from Alexa Bliss as Bliss will be reinserted should she be cleared to compete when her next scheduled match comes around. Taking Sasha’s spot as Bobby Lashley’s tag team partner moving forward will now be Mickie James.

At this time there are no details on Sasha’s injury, when she will return or if it affects her potentially competing at WWE Evolution on October 28th.
