Angle competing is weird. Could have had Matt Hardy or Jordan replace Reigns so why Angle? Outside of PPV buys of his return I guess.

WWE is testing the roster now. Even JoJo was told to stay home.

I hope AJ and Finn gets 25 minutes or so. What a huge break for Balor. That Bray match was gonna be awful for him especially if he is the next contender for Brock.

-- As reported earlier today, WWE broke the news that both Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt will be missing the upcoming TLC PPV due to a medical situation. While not stating what it is (and they most likely never will get any more specific than that), the illness in question is reportedly "viral meningitis" and there is a very real fear that others could also be affected.

-- WWE officials had previously taken Bray Wyatt off the road along with his brother Bo Dallas as they were suffering from this illness and they also requested Bray's girlfriend, ring announcer JoJo, to remain home as well as a precautionary measure. The hope was that Bray would be well enough by this weekend to participate at the TLC PPV, but writers became aware only yesterday that he was almost surely going to be unable to compete.

-- With Reigns and Wyatt both off the PPV, there was a significant concern that the event would fall well short of expectations with the company bracing for a negative backlash, specifically with the Shield reunion as a major storyline. It's pretty clear that WWE took all that seriously by booking Kurt Angle into a match on such short notice and by giving away a potential dream match in AJ Styles vs. Finn Balor without much promotion.

-- As noted in a previous post, WWE is having several other wrestlers who are scheduled to compete at TLC this Sunday undergo testing for viral meningitis so depending on the results, it's still possible there will be more changes ahead of the PPV on Sunday.

ya so far this has worked out even better.
So did AJ move to Raw or is it just to get more buys? I've been out of the loop for a little bit.

Look at the last few posts. Recent viral infection forced Wyatt off the TLC card (among others). AJ was added as a last minute replacement to the Balor match at TLC.

I got all that. So just a one night appearance on a Raw PPV?
