10 Last-Minute WWE Survivor Series 2016 Predictions
10. Team SmackDown Win The Men's Match
This past week on Raw, Team SmackDown launched a fairly tame invasion of Monday night’s show, emerging through the crowd to set up a multi-man stand-off with their Team Raw counterparts. Obviously the action picked up when that stand-off degenerated into a mass brawl, with Team Raw ultimately coming out on top after Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns double-powerbombed AJ Styles onto his SmackDown teammates at ringside.
So based on the unwritten rule of 50/50 booking, and the fact that whoever gains the upper hand on the go-home show tends to get their comeuppance on the pay-per-view, I’m feeling a win for Team SmackDown in the men’s traditional elimination match.
Also, given the fact that Raw is clearly the number one brand in the grand scheme of things, it would be fairly understandable if the powers that be feel the need to throw SmackDown a bone and at least give them this paper victory over the premier show.
Besides, it’s a tactic we’ve seen them use plenty of times before.
