Dominik Mysterio has been removed from Team Raw for Survivor Series by WWE official Adam Pearce.
WWE only announced the teams for the men’s and women’s Survivor Series elimination matches on November 6th, but there has already been a change to one of the line-ups.
On the November 8th episode of Monday Night Raw, WWE Official Adam Pearce came to the ring saying that he’d got an announcement for Rey and Dominik Mysterio. After the father and son team came to the ring, Pearce explained the importance of Survivor Series.
The WWE official pointed to the success of Team Raw last year saying that the current team had to live up to their predecessors. Pearce also highlighted that all of the members of the current teams were former World Champions, apart from Dominik Mysterio.
This led to Pearce saying that Dominik could keep his place in the line-up if he defeated one man, Bobby Lashley.
The former World Champion, reunited with MVP then came to the ring and promptly demolished the younger Mysterio. He applied the Hurt Lock before not letting Dominik tap out, continuing the punishment until he decided it was time to finally take the win.
