TORONTO – Some people are never satisfied. Just moments after Team Raw prevailed in a highly contentious 5-on-5 Traditional Survivor Series Women’s Elimination Match, winning team captain Charlotte Flair ambushed her unsuspecting fellow Survivor Bayley in a shocking display of aggression – and possible jealousy.
The Queen’s despicable demonstration came in the wake of the red brand eliminating all of Team SmackDown LIVE and Bayley eliminating final Team Blue holdout Becky Lynch with a Bayley-to-Belly Suplex, leaving herself and Charlotte as the Sole Survivors. With the capacity crowd inside Air Canada Centre clearly favoring The Heroine of Hugs, the Raw Women’s Champion unleashed on her affable teammate.

The incident capped a turbulent evening that actually began to develop on the Survivor Series Kickoff, when Charlotte and Dana Brooke confronted Nikki Bella and SmackDown Women’s Champion Becky Lynch. The Second Nature Superstar had warned Nikki to “always look over your shoulder because you never know who’s willing to strike.”
Unfortunately for the Fearless Superstar, the warning would turn out to be a premonition. Prior to her match, Nikki was attacked by an unknown assailant, rendering her unable to compete and forcing SmackDown LIVE coach Natalya to take her place alongside Becky, Carmella, Alexa Bliss and Naomi. The new team dynamic did not bode well, ultimately, as Team SmackDown LIVE would fall victim to Charlotte, Bayley and the rest of Team Raw: Nia Jax, Sasha Banks and Alicia Fox.
With such tempestuous intrigue roiling the Women’s rosters of both brands, two questions loom large: How will Bayley retaliate against The Queen? And who exactly ambushed Nikki?
