When the teams were coming together for the big main event at Survivor Series, Jack Swagger was one of the ones who initially took up arms for Cena's team. However, he was taken out of action on Raw a few weeks before the pay-per-view, after an assault at the hands of Seth Rollins. Ryback ended up crossing over from the Authority side to replace him.

Come the night of the pay-per-view, Swagger actually wrestled in a pre-show match, defeating former tag team partner Cesaro after five and a half minutes. The same Swagger that weeks earlier was rendered unable to compete in a main event match with heavy implications, due to injury.

Fans often accuse WWE of bungling their own continuity and contradicting themselves, and it bears asking: does anyone in the company even watch their own shows?
