The WWE said the match was changed after Lana refused to let her husband compete in a match with that stipulation which she expressed in the following tweet. 

This will be Chris Jericho's first Casket Match. WWE has also scheduled appearances from Triple H, Daniel Bryan, and Big Show for the event and there are reports of Rey Mysterio Jr showing up.
