It's almost like the creative team on RAW does not watch WWE SmackDown and vice versa (which is odd because Bruce Prichard heads both teams). Adam Pearce said that he only gets to pick one member of Team RAW and WWE SmackDown to Natalya, which was obviously a lie, especially if you consider that he picked all of the members in the RAW Women's Survivor Series team, not long ago!
“I know I handpicked the majority of the RAW women’s #SurvivorSeries team, but I can only pick one person on each team now. Sorry Nattie.” #SmackDown Can it...can we just, for a month, follow the rules that are presented to us?
Also, why did Otis, a man who lost to Seth Rollins get another chance to enter the men's Survivor Series team, when Big E, who should be in the midst of the biggest singles push of his career not get a shot, on this instance? The chemistry between Seth Rollins and someone like Dominik could also have been explored on the WWE SmackDown Men's Team, as they would be forced to work together for brand supremacy. It just seems like almost no effort was put into the storytelling aspect of WWE SmackDown this week, which is a shame.
