WWE Announces That Ivar Is Not Cleared To Compete, Andrade To Face Giovanni Vinci On WWE RAW

WWE has made a change to the lineup for the March 25 episode of WWE RAW, as Ivar is unable to compete.

In a tweet, RAW General Manager Adam Pearce announced that Ivar was not medically cleared to compete. As a result, Giovanni Vinci will take his place in his scheduled match against Andrade. Additional details are unclear at this time.

The updated card is as follows:

  • JD McDonagh vs. Ricochet
  • Candice LeRae vs. Ivy Nile
  • Andrade vs. Giovanni Vinci
  • Jey Uso vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
  • Sami Zayn vs. Bronson Reed
  • CM Punk returns

Update: Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful (via Fightful Select) reports that, per sources, Ivar is fine, and he is expected to return to the ring shortly. There is no word on the reason as to why he was unable to compete.

WrestleZone will provide more information as it becomes available, and we will have coverage of WWE RAW as it airs on Monday.
