Broadcast team member Jackie Redmond to miss WWE Raw

WWE Raw will be down a member of its broadcast team tonight as Jackie Redmond won’t be able to make it to the show.

Redmond was in Italy on Sunday covering the United States vs. Canada men’s hockey gold medal game in the Winter Olympics. She sent out a tweet this morning announcing that she will not be able to make it back in time for Raw, where she usually handles backstage interviews. Redmond is set to resume her WWE duties at this Saturday’s Elimination Chamber PLE.

“I won’t be on #WWERAW tonight, for those who have asked. Can’t get there in time,” Redmond wrote. “But I WILL be in LA for Artemi Panarin’s debut with the LA Kings on @NHL_On_TNT Wednesday! Oh and I Will be at Chamber !!”

With the Olympics now over, Redmond’s Raw schedule should be back to normal going forward after missing a few weeks. WWE SmackDown will move back to USA Network starting this Friday after Olympics coverage forced it to move to Syfy the past two episodes.

Raw is being held at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia tonight. Due to a blizzard impacting the Northeast, the WWE production team has been affected by weather delays ahead of the show. The episode will feature a tribute to AJ Styles, an appearance by Brock Lesnar, and the final build to Elimination Chamber.

After Raw, WWE heads to Louisville, Kentucky for SmackDown this Friday and Chicago, Illinois for Elimination Chamber on Saturday.
