WWE News: Updated Match Card of Survivor Series Following Raw and Smackdown
Nov 16, 2017 at 3:11 PM
The match card for the Survivor Series PPV was announced just the night after TLC PPV.
Despite being the brand vs brand themed event, all the champions from one brand were scheduled to face the champions from the other one. But, since these matches were made almost one month earlier, several changes were bound to happen. Hence, a lot of modifications were done to the match card.
It is the final week for the PPV event which will emanate on this Sunday night. So, following this week’s Raw and Smackdown Live, we have received the final match card of the last dual brand PPV of the year.
The biggest alteration to the lineups was made when Triple H decided to come back on this week’s WWE Raw. Jason Jordan was having a tough time with an injury to his leg keeping his father, Kurt Angle in a dilemma. The Game chose this very moment to make his comeback and insert himself as the final member of team Raw replacing Jordan.
Triple H’s entry made the team from flagship show stronger than ever. Another change was made on Smackdown Live when Charlotte Flair defeated Natalya for the women’s title. By the virtue of this win, the champion vs champion match from the female division got altered. Charlotte will be facing Alexa Bliss on this Sunday. With that being said, this is the final match card of Survivor Series 2017:
