Fans present for WWE’s “Smackdown” tapings on Nov. 18 have provided a major conflicting report regarding the “Survivor Series” main event stipulation that was added during the program. As previously reported, a stipulation was reportedly tacked onto the Team Cena vs. Team Authority match during the tapings that states if Team Cena loses, that John Cena, Ryback, Erick Rowan, Big Show, and Dolph Ziggler will all be fired from WWE.
If Team Authority loses, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon will no longer be in power over the WWE roster, and if Team Cena loses, each superstar featured on the babyface squad will lose their jobs. However, fan reports now state that Triple H actually said something a little different during the “Smackdown” tapings.
WrestlingInc.com reader Bob Berger reported that Triple H actually said that Cena would not be fired, but Show, Rowan, Ziggler, and Ryback would. Apparently The Game said that he would not “future endeavor” Cena due to his value to WWE, while all of his teammates are “replaceable.”
Triple H reportedly goes on to say even if he did fire Cena, that he’s been made rich beyond compare and would be fine, while Ryback, Ziggler, Rowan, and Show would struggle to make ends meet without WWE. This stipulation was said to be Triple H’s last attempt and getting Ziggler, Ryback, Show, and Rowan to walk out on Cena and not team with him against The Authority at “Survivor Series” on Nov. 23.
You can see for yourself what Triple H actually said, and what the stipulation will finally turn out to be by watching “Smackdown” on the SyFy Network on Nov. 21 at 8 p.m. ET.

Editor’s Note:
Interesting. If Cena isn’t included…the faces may seriously lose. My money is still on Orton coming back to cost The Authority the match in his hometown on Sunday.
