PWInsider added in another update that Swann has been bothered with his ankle over the last few weeks.
ORIGINAL: Rich Swann suffered an injury at Impact’s Bash at the Brewery 2 on Friday and that is shaking up the card for tonight’s Hard to Kill. PWInsider reports Swann suffered what is thought to be a bad ankle sprain at the show and is not expected to be cleared for his match alongside Willie Mack against The North for the Impact World Tag Team Championships.
According to the site, it was teased that they North may defend against Mack in a handicap match, but as of now it is not confirmed whether that’s the plan. Ethan Page also posted to Twitter on Sunday morning, noting that he had salmonella poisoning but said he will be on the PPV.
Impact Hard to Kill takes place tonight from Dallas, Texas.
This is where I’ve been sitting for the last couple hours.
Turns out, it’s not food poisoning … but salmonella 😎👌
Thanks @BourbonStGrill
Wish me luck.
LIVE on PPV tonight …. where I attempt (yet again) to not 💩 myself!
I truly am …. #HARDTOKILL pic.twitter.com/51c59pg4j3
