The polar vortex weather affecting large parts of North America has caused a ring announcing change for this week’s WWE Raw.

Raw ring announcer Alicia Taylor posted to Instagram Stories on Sunday that she is unable to travel to Toronto for the show, citing canceled flights.

Lillian Garcia, who was the ring announcer for Saturday Night’s Main Event in Montreal this weekend, will fill in for Taylor on Monday’s show.

Taylor’s post reads:

“Currently at the airport with all canceled flights to Canada 🇨🇦 soo… tagging in sister LIL for the fill 🙌🏾🙌🏾”

WWE Raw on Monday takes place at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. As of this week’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter, 13,688 tickets were out for the show and it is expected to be a sellout. WrestleTix reported the number at 14,804 on Sunday, up more than 1,000 over the past week.

  • Bron Breakker returns from suspension
