5 possible backstories behind the WWE TLC match card change

#3 Roman Reigns pulled from TLC

The Big Dog is taken out of action

Rumors started to circulate about other WWE Superstars on the Raw brand potentially being sick but nobody saw this one coming. Two days before the TLC pay-per-view was set to take place, Roman Reigns was pulled from the big main event, effectively halting The Shield's reunion and forcing WWE to make a very tough decision regarding his replacement.

After all, Vince McMahon wasn't about to cancel a show due to illness. WWE released a statement on the matter where they said a "viral infection' had been found in three Superstars, leading most to assume the ones dealing with this disease were Bo Dallas, Bray Wyatt, and Roman Reigns.

Now quick decisions needed to be made after "The Big Dog" was pulled from the show.
