In a 15-minute segment that closed Monday Night Raw, the Smackdown roster, including AJ Styles, Rusev, Shinsuke Nakamura, The New Day, Dolph Ziggler, Bobby Roode, Baron Corbin, and others destroyed the Raw locker room, firing the “first shots” as Michael Cole put it, for the Survivor Series.
Earlier in the broadcast, Shane McMahon appeared backstage with fellow Commissioner Kurt Angle and the two went back and forth about their brand supremacy. McMahon mentioned the words “under siege,” two words that became more clear once the final segment kicked off.
Coming down through the fans ala The Shield, the Smackdown roster marched to the locker room on orders of Shane McMahon and destroyed everyone in sight. Titus O’Neil, Apollo Crews, Jason Jordan, Goldust, Matt Hardy, Finn Balor, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Alicia Fox, and others received a brutal beat-down by the Superstars sporting the blue brand shirts.
It was a segment that brought memories of the invasion storyline featuring WWE vs WCW/ECW! You can see parts of the segment below.
