That’s filling them up in a hurry. Survivor Series is rapidly approaching and that means we need to get the card set up soon. With three Survivor Series elimination matches featuring a total of forty wrestlers, you have to get things going rather quickly. A lot of that has been done recent weeks but there was still a lot of things to do just on Monday Night Raw. That’s exactly what they did, and they did it fast.
This week on Monday Night Raw, several names were added to the three matches, with two teams being set up from scratch. Coming into this week, the only two names we knew for any of the teams were Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler as part of the men’s team with Braun Strowman having been named but not accepting the spot. Now that the show is over, all twenty of the names have been confirmed. Here are the final rosters for the Monday Night Raw teams:
Men’s Team
Drew McIntyre, Dolph Ziggler, Finn Balor, Braun Strowman, Bobby Lashley
Women’s Team
Nia Jax, Tamina, Mickie James, Ruby Riott, Natalya
Tag Teams
Bobby Roode/Chad Gable(captains), Ascension, B-Team, Revival, Lucha House Party
See a bunch of them in action at once.
Opinion: Well you can’t say they didn’t fly through the thing. I’m not wild on naming ninety percent of your wrestlers in a single show but that’s the place they’re in at the moment and it’s the best they can do. Some of the lineups aren’t half bad either and the matches on Sunday should be good. I wish I could say the same about the build, but the amount of time they’d had has killed them.
