A blow to the King of the Ring tournament! One of the top contenders, Bobby Lashley, has been forced to withdraw due to a training injury.

This news was revealed by SmackDown GM Nick Aldis on Thursday. Lashley’s injury meant Angelo Dawkins stepped in as a last-minute replacement to face Tama Tonga in the first round.

Unfortunately, Dawkins was defeated by Tonga, who advanced to the next round. According to wrestling journalist Sean Ross Sapp, WWE knew about Lashley’s injury as early as Monday of this week.

This explains the quick replacement with Dawkins. While fans might have preferred to see Montez Ford take Lashley’s place, the plan was always for Tonga to win the match.

It’s unclear when Bobby Lashley will be back in the ring. Fans are disappointed they won’t see him compete this week, but hopefully he’ll be healthy and ready to return soon.

This unexpected turn of events adds a layer of unpredictability to the King of the Ring tournament. With a major player sidelined, new opportunities arise for other wrestlers to shine and potentially claim the coveted crown.
