There will be an Elimination Chamber match on Sunday night for the WWE Championship. As of right now, Daniel Bryan is defending his Title against Samoa Joe, Jeff Hardy, Randy Orton, Mustafa Ali, and AJ Styles.
A new report suggests that a major change will be made to the match.
According to a report from Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, it is bad news for fans of Mustafa Ali.
Sapp reports that Ali is injured and will be forced out of the Men’s Elimination Chamber match. Ali has been working through an injured tailbone over the past few weeks. He also suffered a nasty black eye in his match against Randy Orton last week. That eye injury reportedly got worse after a WWE live event this weekend and WWE is pulling Ali from the match due to his mounting injuries.
There is no word yet on who will replace Ali in the match. The current plan according to Sapp is that Orton will be blamed (in the storyline) for taking out Ali.
We will let you know if we hear anything more. Sucks to hear for Ali though.
