There was a big match that was planned for the Men’s WWE Elimination Chamber PLE and pulled from the show.
As many of you may have seen, Bronson Reed missed the show due to the birth of his child and he thanked Triple H for being accomodating to him. However, Fightful Select reports that this was not the reason why he was off the show.
Fightful Select reported today that Reed was originally set to wrestle World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins on the show. This was hinted at in some of Reed’s promos when he said that he was looking at taking out a champion who had no idea what was coming.
With Rollins not being cleared to wrestle, they had to change plans, and the match was scrapped. With Reed’s wife giving birth, everything worked out for the best for him and his family but before she gave birth, Reed was said to have been more than willing to work on the show. Rollins appeared alongside Cody Rhodes on The Grayson Waller Effect segment and stated that he is expected to be cleared in a few days. On Wrestling News Talk (see the video below), we discussed WrestleMania plans and matches that are planned but not yet officially announced. We also talked about The Rock’s direction for WrestleMania and how things will change for WWE when they move to Netflix.
