Two WWE SmackDown Wrestlers Removed From Survivor Series
Changes have been made to the teams
Changes were made to SmackDown's two Survivor Series teams on Friday night's SmackDown, as a wrestler was removed from each team.
Aliyah has been taken off of the women's team. As part of a six-woman tag on tonight's broadcast, Aliyah scored the winning fall on Natalya, after Naomi broke up Natalya's using of the ropes for leverage while she had Aliyah in the Sharpshooter.
Sonya Deville then informed Aliyah that she's no longer on the Survivor Series team. Deville is currently at odds with Naomi.
In addition, Sami Zayn is no longer on SmackDown's men's team. Zayn was put into a match with Jeff Hardy where the loser would be removed from the team, which Hardy won.
