It should be noted that WWE has confirmed that he will still be taking on Drew McIntyre at the TLC pay-per-view event on Sunday, December 16th, 2018 in San Jose, California at the SAP Center.
Regarding his replacement on Mixed Match Challenge, Apollo Crews will take that spot to team up with Bayley as they will face Jinder Mahal and Alicia Fox on Tuesday’s episode to determine the finals at TLC.
Balor’s last match came when competed at last Wednesday’s WWE live event in Santiago, Chile where he participated in a Triple Threat with McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler, which McIntyre won.
