Survivor Series 2020: 5 big WWE rumors you should know – Backstage plans for The Undertaker's farewell, Roman Reigns behind last-minute change?

#4 Reason why two RAW Superstars were dropped from the Survivor Series team

Mandy Rose sustained a serious injury on WWE RAW

The change mentioned in the previous slide is not the only last-minute alteration made in the Survivor Series match card. On RAW’s final episode before the PPV, it was confirmed that Lacey Evans and Peyton Royce would replace Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke. In his report, Dave Meltzer revealed that Mandy Rose sustained a legitimate injury that forced the creative to make the above-mentioned change.

Rose sustained an injury during the match that saw her teaming up with Asuka and Dana Brooke to take on Shayna Baszler, Nia Jax, and Lana. After the match, Jax and Rose started brawling during which Jax threw Rose into the ropes. The latter got tangled and landed awkwardly, injuring her shoulder in the process. With that, she unfortunately lost her spot in the Survivor Series team.

After Rose was ruled out of in-ring action, the creative decided to take Dana Brooke out of the team as well. Thus, she was attacked by RECKONING backstage and was declared unfit to compete at the upcoming PPV. Both Superstars are expected to return after Mandy Rose fully recovers from the actual injury that she sustained earlier this month.
