A match originally advertised for the upcoming taping of WWE Raw has been changed.
Looking to continue his path of destruction, Bronson Reed was set to enter the Intercontinental Championship tournament in a triple threat match against Sheamus and Ludwig Kaiser. However, as announced by General Manager Adam Pearce on social media, Reed has tested positive for COVID and is unable to compete. Pearce added that he is working on finding a suitable replacement who would compete in the match.
With Reed taking out Seth Rollins, R-Truth and Braun Strowman in the past few months, the big man was set to be a favourite heading into the match.
