As reported earlier, WWE conducted an injury angle at this morning’s WrestleMania Axxess affecting the Eight-Man Tag Team Match at WrestleMania XXVII featuring Big Show, Kane, Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov vs. Ezekiel Jackson, Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel and Wade Barrett.
Following Kozlov’s victory over Tyler Reks, The Corre attacked the Raw Superstar. The faction used the steel steps to crush The Moscow Mauler’s shoulder against the ring post.
WWE acknowledged the attack on the company website: “Twitter and YouTube has since erupted with photos and videos of the incident. The footage only serves to leave the WWE Universe wondering about Kozlov’s condition, or what condition he’ll be in for the Eight-Man Tag Team Match at WrestleMania.”
The angle will play out with Kozlov being removed from the Eight-Man Tag Team Match and replaced by Kofi Kingston. The announcement is not expected to made until the match takes place.
Kingston dropped the Intercontinental Championship to Barrett last week on Smackdown.

I would rather it be Kofi than Diesel to be honest with you. Kingston has much more to do with the Corre than Diesel does.
EDIT: Also, I would find this match so much more appealing if it was elimination rules.

Why the hell is Tyler Reks losing to Vladimir Kozlov? :/ Surprised they havn't made the match a Lumberjack Match, just so the full WWE roster will get the WrestleMania paycheck.

What a load of crap. Kozlov deserves to be at WrestleMania so much.

Great news. I thought it was crazy that Kofi wasn't involved with Mania. Even though it's just a throwaway match, I'm glad he's getting a spot.

It's Diesel (Barrett eliminated him at the RR) so its time for some revenge (Diesel power!)

What a shame, Koslov and Santino deserved this wrestlemania, no doubt. Kofi doesn't excite me in the slightest.
