Brandi Rhodes To Replace Awesome Kong On AEW Dynamite

By Marc Middleton

Awesome Kong will not be wrestling on tonight's "Bash at the Beach" edition of AEW Dynamite because she's not medically cleared due to an illness. Brandi Rhodes will be replacing her in the tag team match.

AEW announced this evening that Rhodes will be teaming with Mel to face Hikaru Shida and Kris Statlander. Luther will be at ringside with Brandi and Mel. There's no word yet on if Kong will be there, but she will not be competing.
