WWE Live Event Shake-up – Balor out, Bayley in; look-ahead to post-Summerslam line-ups

Injuries to Universal champion Finn Balor and former Women’s champion Sasha Banks led to a shake-up in WWE’s weekend tours.

Balor has been pulled from this weekend’s tour of Mexico, which was being marketed around Balor’s return to Mexico after wrestling for CMLL as Prince Devitt.

Bayley has now been added to the Mexico tour.

Overall, WWE is still mixing Raw and Smackdown roster members on the house shows after Summerslam. However, the line-ups are slowly shifting toward Raw and Smackdown-specific talent.
