I think it's the viral infection spreading like wildfire.
I'm surprised they didn't use Styles in the Main Event, grab someone like Zayn for Balor and actually build up to Angle's return.

Depending on how long he's out this could get mega heart for the heels but this is a bummer.

It's been said it's viral meningitis.
Is it the same reason KO was given time off too?

When it was a one match card they had to do something big to replace Roman. This is so bizarre but made me so excited.

Still genuinely surprised about this. I thought they'd never allow him to wrestle in a million years. Or perhaps Angle's neck being held together by a string was always just a meme on the Internet?

AJ vs. Finn should be a fantastic match. TLC may have just gotten better with these changes.

I have a prediction: Kurt won’t actually wrestle
Here’s how I see it going down:
He gets taken out backstage (we only see him after the attack). Then Jason Jordan takes his place with it later on being revealed he is the one who took out Kurt.

It's being advertised on ESPN, that's where I saw it first. I doubt they attack Angle backstage beforehand if they're talking about it on ESPN. That would suck, but in the long run, I guess it could be cool.

Why the heck has a TLC 5-on-3 Handicap been booked? With Strowman and Kane on the side with greater numbers? What bizarre booking. I guess the original match was The Shield against those guys, but it still sounds like insane booking.
Kurt Angle replacing Reigns is even more bizarre. Why would a non-wrestling figure be replacing a wrestler?

Hopefully, once everyone is healthy they'll still have this match.

Kane will turn on the Miz & crew, joine The Shield, and boom. A Survivor Series match is born. The Shield & Kane vs. The Miztourage (Miz, Axel, & Dallas) & Braun Strowman.

Adding Kurt Angle to the match does have some degree of logic behind it. Much like Daniel Bryan, Miz has had a side-feud with Kurt Angle since being moved to Raw, and even his storyline son Jason Jordan, and for them to now be able to get it on in the ring, it's definitely a good direction to go in.

Smart move to get more eyes on the product in time for Wrestlemania season. Anyone that was on the fence about TLC just got their minds changed in a big way.
Just sucks to see Roman taken out by this bug.

Putting Angle in there last minute is such a fascinating decision. I wonder what the other options were. One would think that another interesting option would just have been getting Brock to show up. It would have made as much sense story wise as throwing Angle in there cold.

So Bray just gets dumped? YES YES YES! He's sick and can't wrestle. It's been said multiple times in this thread. Him and Roman both caught meningitis.

Wonder why Reigns gets time off but Punk had to wrestle with his Staph infection?
