Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn will not be a part of Survivor Series, and that is a crying shame. Neither will Jinder Mahal, who was the most important man on SmackDown Live, until only a week ago. The same holds true for Rusev, who's been one of the most entertaining men on the show.

We know that it is impossible to fit everyone into every bill at all times, but we would have liked to see these top-level players maybe in a showcase match. It is a shame to see that they could not even make Sunday's card!
