With this year's WWE Survivor Series two weeks away, Vince McMahon's sports entertainment juggernaut has now announced the competitors for the traditional multi-person tag bouts that the event is famed for.

Taking to Twitter, WWE has confirmed that the men's bout will see Raw's Seth Rollins, Finn Balor, Kevin Owens and Rey and Dominik Mysterio take on SmackDown's Drew McIntyre, Jeff Hardy, Xavier Woods, Sami Zayn and Baron Corbin.

For the women's five-on-five contest, it will be Raw's Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, Carmella and Zelina Vega going up against SmackDown's Sasha Banks, Shayna Baszler, Shotzi, Natalya and Aliyah.

While they've not been confirmed at this stage, it's also heavily rumoured that Survivor Series will feature Big E vs. Roman Reigns, Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte Flair, Damian Priest vs. Shinsuke Nakamura, and RK-Bro vs. The Usos.

Considering the PPV is only a fortnight away, WWE has been extremely quiet when it comes to building towards its annual November event. With the aforementioned teams now announced, expect WWE to start pushing the Brand vs. Brand rivalry on Raw and SmackDown programming for these new couple of weeks.
