Kurt Angle announced via social media that Enzo Amore is out of the WWE Mixed Match Challenge. Angle noted that Amore is battling the flu and therefore must be replaced.
Powell’s POV: I assume the company is doing pre-tapes that Enzo can’t take part in. Otherwise, it seems odd to pull him from the lineup when the premiere is nearly two weeks away. There’s no word yet on which wrestler will replace Enzo. A WWE.com story noted that Angle and Daniel Bryan will start announcing the mixed tag teams today.
@real1 has the flu and thus I must replace him in the Mixed Match Challenge. #WWEMMC
