A change has been made to the card for WWE WrestleMania 40.

Rey Mysterio & Dragon Lee were supposed to face Santos Escobar & Dominik Mysterio at night one of this weekend's event. But there was an angle on Friday's SmackDown where Lee was taken out in a backstage attack. The tag match will now be Rey & Andrade vs. Escobar & Dominik.

Andrade aligned with Rey and the LWO on SmackDown. Escobar and Dominik thought they had Andrade on their side, but he instead saved Rey from their beatdown.

WWE did not reveal the identity of Lee's attacker. Though it was presumed that Legado del Fantasma were behind the attack, Carlito is another possible culprit. Carlito is a member of the LWO but has looked unhappy about not being Rey's WrestleMania partner.

The updated lineups for WrestleMania 40 are listed below. The start time for both nights is 7 p.m. Eastern. There will also be a pre-show airing from 5-7 p.m. Eastern each night.
