Jinder Mahal
Last week, the assumption was that AJ Styles would be taking the final place on Team Smackdown after coming out of a defeat to the then WWE champion, Jinder Mahal. WWE, though, had other ideas, with AJ picking up the shock victory this past Tuesday night in Manchester and replacing Jinder in the big match against Brock Lesnar in the process.
If AJ has taken Jinder’s place on the card, though, does that mean that Jinder might be taking AJ’s? Jinder has been booked at the top of every Smackdown for the past few months, and having him off Survivor Series altogether seems a surprising move, especially with the WWE’s tour of India just around the corner. Putting Jinder in this match would keep him relevant. It also would provide the fans with the opportunity to watch Jinder get destroyed by Braun Strowman, and after months of having to watch him steam-roll over the whole Smackdown roster, that is definitely something I would love to see.
