Ember Moon has been pulled from tonight’s WWE NXT episode on the USA Network.
WWE just announced that Moon is now medically unable to compete, as determined by NXT medics earlier in the day.
Moon was scheduled to face Sarray in a first-time-ever match on tonight’s NXT, but now Sarray will face Dakota Kai. That match will open the show.
Kai is set to challenge NXT Women’s Champion Raquel Gonzalez at Takeover 36. Gonzalez has been announced for a segment on tonight’s show where she will address Kai’s recent attack.
