Alexa Bliss Pulled From WWE Evolution, New Tag Team Partner Announced For Mickie James
WWE has announced that Alexa Bliss will not be competing at Sunday's Evolution pay-per-view. As noted, Bliss suffered a concussion or a broken nose at last Saturday's live event and she has been out of action since. It was believed she would be good to go but WWE has pulled her from the match.
Alicia Fox will be replacing Bliss in the match with Mickie James against WWE Hall of Famers Lita and Trish Stratus. Bliss will be in their corner.
WWE wrote in their preview, "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."
