The reality is that the Coronavirus situation has forced WWE to assess which Superstars they may need for WrestleMania 36. Usually, there are two battle royals which are put on the card to get everyone possible on the show - including low card talent.

However, the circumstances forced them to scrap that match and it's clear that the amount of talent and staff present in the Performance Center is limited. In all likeliness, WWE had to put out a list of superstars they felt will be important for the build to WrestleMania 36 and when shuffling the matches and making last-minute changes (which are evident), they probably felt as though they needed to get both Aleister Black and Bobby Lashley on the card, with no better opponents for each other right now.

All the major stars are booked in different matches and this is one that would help both superstars get on the card. While we don't like the lack of build, this could be a show-stealer.
