— Samoa Joe won the fan vote for the last Raw spot at the upcoming Mixed Match Challege, but he reportedly suffered an injury on Raw, which has taken him out of the tournament.
— It was suspected that the injury might have been a work for WWE to fix the pairing with Bayley as they wanted, but by most accounts this morning, the injury is legit though it is unknown exactly what he injured.
— Kurt Angle then announced:
Thank you all for voting for @itsBayleyWWE partner in #WWEMMC, but due to an injury suffered on #Raw @SamoaJoe is unable to compete…

…therefore the runner-up @IAmEliasWWE will be Bayley’s partner. #WWEMMC
