Randy Orton defeated Sami Zayn on Smackdown Live this week. As a result, he earned the first spot on Team Smackdown in their elimination match against RAW at Survivor Series.
Operating under the idea that it will be a 5 on 5 match, we thought that we would try to predict the rest of the team that will be joining Orton.
Kevin Owens vs Shinsuke Nakamura was announced for next week with the winner earning a spot on the team. Now that Zayn is out, we have to think that Owens will lose as well. Nakamura wins next week and earns a spot on the team.
Bobby Roode will be facing Dolph Ziggler in a 2 out of 3 falls match next week. Winner earns a spot on the team. Have to imagine that Roode will be winning here and joining Team Blue.
As for the fourth member, not even a question that AJ Styles will be on it. He is currently feuding with Jinder Mahal, who already has a match announced for Survivor Series. Almost a guarantee that he will be on this team.
So who will be the fifth member? We think that the fifth member and team captain will be Shane McMahon, leading his troops into battle.
Here are our picks for Team Smackdown at Survivor Series 2017:
- Shane McMahon (Captain)
- AJ Styles
- Randy Orton
- Shinsuke Nakamura
- Bobby Roode
