The very basis of Survivor Series results in issues that don't really make sense. Why would you hate superstars from the other brand simply because the event stipulates that you do? WWE logic, that's why.

The superstars of Raw and SmackDown are now sworn enemies because they have to be, but they can't argue and attack those enemies because they're on separate shows, so they argue and attack each other instead. Again, WWE logic.

The amount of infighting on both the male and female Raw teams grew tedious really quickly. It's a tired, old and predictable concept, so doing it once is bad enough but to rely on that trope for both matches is inexcusable.

The problem is that this could - and probably will - spill into Survivor Series itself, resulting in superstars like Braun Strowman, Sheamus and Keith Lee battering each other in the middle of the match as they completely forget about the fact they're facing another brand's superstars - which, in all honesty, is basically just a microcosm of this whole storyline.
