Fightful Select was able to learn of a lot of injury updates in WWE.

As revealed by POST Wrestling, Elias has an undisclosed injury and won't be competing tonight. There's no diagnosis backstage, but it's suspected that he "broke something." As of Tuesday afternoon, Shane McMahon was expected to replace him in the King of the Ring tournament.

Tamina has been medically cleared after being sidelined with a concussion for quite some time.

Both EC3 and Heath Slater were listed as injured, but both were also supposed to undergo evaluations on Monday. EC3 was banged up in a match with Titus O'Neil due to some sloppy body slams, but is said to be fine now, as is Slater.

Bobby Lashley was originally set internally to have a return time in November, but the listing has him bumped up to 10/14. To the contrary, internal listings originally had Tommaso Ciampa listed at mid-August, and now peg him at 9/11. Jinder Mahal, who was once listed as being out through the end of the year, has November 1 set as his expected return date.

In an update on Drew McIntyre, he's listed as a 9/16 return, after he had a minor surgery recently, as revealed by PWInsider.

Both Oney Lorcan and Jack Gallagher were also listed as unavailable due to injuries.

Samoa Joe and Carmella both were featured under "new injury return dates," categories, though no injury or actual return date was listed.

It should be noted that all of the return times are estimates by WWE internally, and are not definitive. These change often based on the progress or lack thereof of a superstar.
