One of the suggestions provided by King Woods with regards to the incentive for Survivor Series team participants was corresponding placement in the Royal Rumble match. In other words, the winning team’s participants would be presented with entry numbers 26-30 while the losing teams would be relegated to numbers 1-5. An intriguing idea for sure, but perhaps something even MORE compelling could be on the table.

As questions surface about whether or not WWE’s January 1st PPV, Day One will become a permanent fixture, a pair of Fatal Five-Way matches featuring the participants on each winning team could be an effective selling point. This is particularly true if they’re vying for the next opportunity at their respective brand’s championship. While Seth Rollins and Liv Morgan have both recently secured a future opportunity for the WWE and RAW Women's Championships at an undisclosed future date, why not have them defend said opportunities against their fellow teammates?

Finn Bálor has unfinished business with 'The Architect', Kevin Owens has been regularly shoehorned between Big E and Rollins anyway and it's not a bold assumption to suggest Bobby Lashley wants his WWE Championship back. The RAW Women's division is wide open and Liv should be eager to prove she can get the job done against the likes of Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley unaided by a lurking Doudrop. To those emerging from these quintets victorious, a title match at the Royal Rumble awaits.

As for the champions’ fates themselves at Survivor Series, it’s quite simple…
