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.

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
