The main event of last night's episode of RAW, which was the go-home show of Sunday's Survivor Series PPV Event, saw "The All Mighty" Bobby Lashley defeat Rey Mysterio. Rey Mysterio was seeking vengeance for what The All Mighty did to his son Dominik last week on RAW. WWE official Adam Pearce watched the main event from the backstage area and announced later in the broadcast that due to the well-being of Rey Mysterio and that of Team RAW, he had to remove Rey Mysterio from the Men's Survivor Series team, with a replacement to be announced later on.
Austin Theory then made his way down to the ring and dropped Dominik from behind with the ATL. Pearce was then posing for a selfie as officials tended to both Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio. Adam then made his way back out and said he liked Austin Theory’s style, then he named Theory as Rey’s Team RAW replacement. RAW then went off the air with Austin Theory posing for a selfie, while officials tended to The Mysterios in the ring.
Team RAW, now consisting of Austin Theory, Bobby Lashley, Finn Balor, Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins is set to face Team SmackDown, consisting of Drew McIntyre, Jeff Hardy, King Woods, Happy Corbin and one final SmackDown Star set to be announced later this week.
The 2021 WWE Survivor Series PPV is set to take place this coming Sunday, November 21 from inside the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
