LOTS OF WWE HOLIDAY TOUR UPDATES, MAIN EVENTERS NOT AT MSG SHOW

PWInsider.com has been told that the advertised main events for the WWE Holiday Tour dates tonight in NYC and Tampa will not be taking place as scheduled due to talents not being present to work the events.  The advertised main events in NYC were Kevin Owens vs. Big E vs. Seth Rollins and Bianca Belair vs. Becky Lynch in steel cage matches.   Big E, Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair are not currently backstage at MSG.

We are told WWE is currently working out alternative plans for MSG.  One of those plans appears to include WWE Hall of Famer Edge, who we are told was being rushed to NYC to appear on tonight's Madison Square Garden event.  The plan is for him to be wrestling on the show tonight.  Natalya was also being brought to the NYC event.

We are told there will also be changes to the Tampa main event, which was was slated to be headlined by Drew McIntyre and The New Day vs. Roman Reigns and The Usos.  WWE Smackdown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair vs. Sasha Banks in a Street Fight has also been advertised for the Smackdown side of the tour.

While Madison Square Garden announced that a WWE NXT title bout had been added to tonight's show this afternoon, we are told that Tommaso Ciampa vs. Pete Dunne had been planned for this week's Holiday Tour events on the Raw side of the tour.  It was not a case of those talents being tapped late in the game to work the shows.
