It was announced on Last Night’s WWE SmackDown that there will be a 5-on-5 Tag Team Traditional Elimination Match at Survivor Series. The two teams will be made up of 5 tag teams from each brand, making it a 10-man match. The Usos will be the Team Captains for the SmackDown team. They selected The New Day to join them and they will announce the final three teams on next Tuesday’s go-home show. There’s no word yet on which RAW tag teams will be in the match but we should find out next Monday.
Regarding the Women’s 5-on-5 Traditional Elimination Match at Survivor Series, SmackDown General Manager Paige announced Asuka, Naomi, Sonya Deville and Carmella for the team but there’s no word yet on who the Team Captain will be. Paige also announced Charlotte Flair for the team but she did not come out for the segment on SmackDown. The WWE website notes that Flair is not official for the match as Asuka, Deville, Naomi and Carmella are. It’s likely that Flair will be revealed as the Team Captain next Tuesday as Paige recently asked her to lead the team but Flair turned her down.
SmackDown also saw the confirmation on the Men’s Team SmackDown. It will be The Miz, Daniel Bryan, Samoa Joe, Rey Mysterio and SmackDown Commissioner Shane McMahon doing battle. Bryan and The Miz are the Team Co-Captains.
As noted, next Monday’s go-home RAW will see Team Captain Alexa Bliss announce 5 members for the Women’s Team RAW. We will also find out he final two members of the Men’s Team RAW and the red brand tag teams for the Tag Team 5-on-5 Traditional Elimination Match.
