10 Fascinating WWE Survivor Series 2005 Facts

10. Eddie Guerrero Was Supposed To Be On Team SmackDown

The wrestling world was still mourning the tragic loss of Eddie Guerrero by the time Survivor Series rolled around. Guerrero was an irreplaceable personality both on and off screen, and his passing at the age of 38 left a massive void in so many walks of his life.

As most would expect, Guerrero was to have played a prominent role in the 2005 Survivor Series, taking part in the big five-on-five main event as part of Team SmackDown. He had recently turned babyface following a short feud with Batista over the World Heavyweight title.

Guerrero had initially won a spot on the SmackDown team by defeating Mr. Kennedy in what turned out to be his last match ever. Randy Orton was named as his replacement.
