There had been some rumors over the past week that Alexa Bliss was dealing with an injury. It was unclear or not if Alexa would be able to compete at WWE Evolution, where she was scheduled to team with Mickie James against Lita and Trish Stratus.
We have some bad news to pass your way.
Alexa Bliss has been pulled from Evolution. She will be replaced by Alicia Fox in the match. Here is what WWE posted:
“The past and present collide at WWE Evolution as WWE Hall of Famers Trish Stratus & Lita join forces to battle Mickie James & Alicia Fox at the groundbreaking pay-per-view event.
Although James was originally slated to team with Alexa Bliss, The Goddess will not compete due to an injury, and will be replaced by the wily Fox in this blockbuster matchup. The cunning Bliss will still be present in Mickie & Alicia’s corner.
This is not the first time this in-ring confrontation has transformed in the lead-up to WWE’s first all-women’s pay-per-view event. The show was initially slated to feature a clash between Alexa and Trish and a separate singles match pitting Lita against Mickie. As Alexa’s trash-talk escalated, however, Trish and Lita both threw hands with the former Women’s Champions, precipitating the combination of the scheduled bouts.
Now, WWE Evolution is set for a cross-generational confrontation that’s sure to feature some country strong, a dash of Foxy unpredictability, a few turns into the extreme and, of course, a healthy dose of Stratusfaction”
