10 Substitutions That Could Improve WWE Survivor Series 2021 Teams

Touché, WWE.

While he ultimately ended up replacing the OTHER Mysterio, the booking decision to have Adam Pearce on hand at RAW to inform Dominik Mysterio that he was defending his Survivor Series spot against Bobby Lashley demonstrated some level of concession. Perhaps the teams were formed a tad hastily and left a ton of star power on the sidelines.

The All Mighty former WWE Champion is likely still bitter from being speared off the stage during his No Holds Barred Match with Goldberg at Crown Jewel. The Mysterios, particularly Rey, are obviously a can’t-miss addition to any squad they join. But from a strictly strategic standpoint ask yourself this one question: In a battle for brand supremacy, who would you rather have in the fold... a father-son duo who can’t seem to get on the same page after recent run-ins with Sami Zayn and Austin Theory, or an angry Bobby Lashley guaranteed to render everyone and everything in his wake to burning wreckage when he returns to action?

All due respect to young Dom, he has all the upside in the world and a promising future. But Team RAW's odds at Survivor Series have significantly increased at his expense.
