Predicting The Raw Vs SmackDown WWE Survivor Series 2019 Card

3. Raw Vs SmackDown (5-on-5 Mens)

Rare now will both Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns find themselves without top titles at the same time, but should Bray Wyatt's evil Fiend supplant 'The Architect' at Hell In A Cell a month or so before this event, WWE may as well tease a Shield implosion for the good of brand warfare.

Both men are expected to stay put on the October 11th draft as per the new needs of both Raw and SmackDown, with 'The Big Dog' objectively the safer choice for generating the numbers Fox have requested as part of the billion dollar deal with the blue brand.

Without a belt or discernible top spot, Seth would be left fighting for pride, and there's few better ways to express this in WWE-speak than leading your brand into battle like this. It's hard to predict the line-ups beyond the leaders, but the prospect of Daniel Bryan, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan revealing an alliance ahead of an escape to Raw could be fascinating - bonded by brand loyalty and little else, the trio could test Rollins' willingness to fight a friend whilst simultaneously using him as a human shield from a raging and rampaging Roman.
