WWE Survivor Series is the only night of the year where WWE's two brands, RAW and SmackDown Live, indulge in head-to-head competition. This year's Survivor Series will witness RAW's Intercontinental Champion, Seth Rollins, square off against SD Live's United States Champion, Shinsuke Nakamura, in a dream match.

The two competitors as acknowledged by Rollins on the last episode of RAW have never battled anywhere in the world, and this will be their first encounter in the ring.

While this dream match is sure to deliver, there looms the danger of The Lunatic Fringe interfering in the match and ruining the experience. Ambrose is currently involved in a heated rivalry with his former Shield brother, Seth Rollins.

Here are 2 reasons why Dean Ambrose should interfere in the "Champion vs Champion" match, and 2 reasons why he should not.

#1 Should interfere - It would draw more heat towards Dean Ambrose

Dean Ambrose teased a heel turn ever since he made his return from injury, donning a new look. But he continued playing a face character, and even reunited with his brothers Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins to form The Shield.

After Roman Reigns' emotional farewell, Dean and Seth won the RAW tag team titles the same night, but The Lunatic did the unthinkable by betraying Rollins moments after winning the gold, and drew an immense amount of heat from the WWE Universe.

He is one of the few WWE Superstars who is not active on social media, and possesses the ability to receive deafening boos from the crowd with his heel work. An interference in the match would lead to Rollins losing the match, and this would further add fuel to the re-ignited rivalry.

#1 Should not interfere - The Intercontinental Champion needs to win in order to make the belt relevant

Seth Rollins' second reign has been lacklustre, to say the least

The Kingslayer's first reign with the IC title was one of the best title reigns of the modern era. It saw him defending the title every night on RAW, and on every house show as well. Rollins made the title more prestigious than ever before, but ever since he lost the title to Dolph Ziggler, the championship has not been as relevant as it was.

After the Rollins vs Ziggler feud ended, The Architect joined forces with The Shield, sidelining the IC title from the picture.

The trio of Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, and Seth Rollins battled with The Dogs of War innumerable times, and Rollins seemingly did not care about the IC title, as he instead focused on winning the RAW tag team championships.

If WWE wants to have Ambrose and Rollins feud over the IC title, they need to let Rollins take the win at Survivor Series.

#2 Should interfere - Nakamura needs a win

Shinsuke Nakamura has been lost in the mix ever since he entered the US title picture. He won the title in just 6 seconds at Extreme Rules, but has received poor booking as a champion.

Nakamura rarely performs at pay-per-views due to a lack of feuds, and is used in filler matches on SmackDown Live.

The Japanese superstar was not on the Hell in a Cell match-card, he even missed WWE Super Show-Down, and defended his title on the kick-off show of WWE Crown Jewel, which displays the level to which the United States Championship has declined.

With Nakamura set to battle Mysterio for the title at WWE Starrcade, a win over The Architect (even because of an interference) would help Shinsuke gain some momentum, and looking at the heelish tactics Nakamura has used during his title reign, it would not come as a surprise if he himself convinces Ambrose to cost Rollins the match.

#2 Should not interfere - The WWE Universe deserves a clean match between two of the greatest in-ring technicians

While Seth Rollins is one of the most athletic superstars on the entire roster, Shinsuke Nakamura is The King of Strong Style, and both superstars have enjoyed immense success in the ring due to their brilliant performances.

There's no doubt that the match between the two will bring the Staples Center's roof down, therefore WWE Creative should avoid letting Dean Ambrose interfere in the match.

An outside interference will surely deteriorate the match's quality, and would unnecessarily ruin the first ever clash between Seth Rollins and Shinsuke Nakamura.
