WWE Monday Night Raw 11.05.18 Spoilers follows.
New Raw Tag Team Champions Crowned…
…But WWE Survivor Series 2018 Match Vs. Smackdown Live Still Unclear?
WWE reports:
- AOP def. Seth Rollins to become the new Raw Tag Team Champions
Lost in all the commotion of Dean Ambrose & Seth Rollins’ acrimonious split has been the fate of the Raw Tag Team Championship, which the pair won moments before The Lunatic Fringe made his move and attacked his brother-in-arms. At the very least, we can cross that loose end off the list: After Rollins seemingly attempted to forfeit the titles, Acting General Manager Baron Corbin (having evaded Braun Strowman long enough to attend to some official business from a secure location) intervened and forced The Kingslayer and his partner to take on AOP in a title match.
Of course, Ambrose was never going to show for this one, so it went about as you would expect: Akam & Rezar feasted on Rollins, who fought the good fight but still found himself flattened by a powerbomb-neckbreaker combo and relieved of the titles in painful fashion. Ambrose finally made an appearance after the match was over, baiting The Architect with the one thing he knew Rollins really wanted. Sliding into the ring, Ambrose asked if Rollins still wanted to know why he had betrayed him, then dropped The Kingslayer once again with Dirty Deeds and left without giving an answer.
Considering that heel faction The Bar (Cesaro and Sheamus) are the Smackdown Tag Team Champions, it seems unlikely WWE would have a heel team vs. another heel team on the Raw vs. Smackdown edition of Survivor Series this year. Will The Bar lose their titles to a new team this week or next setting up another Raw Champion vs. Smackdown Champion match or will these two champion teams be buried in a traditional tag teams Survivor Series match?
WWE Survivor Series 2018 emanates from Los Angeles on November 18, 2018.
