Bobby Lashley has been pulled from the King of the Ring tournament. Smackdown general manager Nick Aldis announced in a social media video that Lashley was injured training. Angelo Dawkins will replace Lashley in the tournament and will face Tama Tonga in the first round.
Powell’s POV: It’s unclear as of this update whether Lashley is legitimately injured or if this was a change made for creative reasons.
