3) Alternate That Wasn’t Used In The Women’s Royal Rumble Match
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, Toni Storm was originally an alternate for the Women’s Royal Rumble match. She ended up taking part in the match after Mia Yim had to be pulled from the event. It was also noted that Kacy Catanzaro was another alternate in case someone else had to pull out.
Here is what Sapp wrote:
One of those names that couldn’t make it was Mia Yim, now known as Reckoning. Fightful learned that Toni Storm actually wasn’t originally planned for the Rumble match, and ended up serving as an alternate when Yim couldn’t make it. Kacy Catanzaro, who was also at the venue, was another alternate WWE had ready in case someone else went down.
My Take:
- I wish Kacy got to be involved. I am a big fan of hers and think that she has a very bright future.
