Cody Rhodes has shared CM Punk's list of suggestions for their team at WWE Survivor Series. 

While the Men's and Women's WarGames have been set for Survivor Series on November 28, Rhodes is still pulling together his team for the Team USA vs. Team Mexico traditional five-on-five elimination tag team match. 

He knows he will be joined by Punk and Je'Von Evans and needs just two more teammates, and Punk sought to provide some worthy considerations for their side, handing a list to the team captain on Friday night. 

Rhodes has since shared that list to social media, and it's safe to say that Punk was thinking outside the box with his eleven suggestions. 

First off was WWE Hall of Famer and inaugural Royal Rumble winner, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, followed by Olympic weightlifter and former WWE star Ken Patera. 

Then he suggested Nikita Koloff, but specifically the 1987 version of his character, since the "Russian Nightmare" from the year prior wouldn't fit the team aesthetic. 

Next up on the list was Jason Voorhees. Punk called on Rhodes to keep an open mind, with the fictional "Crystal Lake" native supposedly an avid patriot. The late Hulk Hogan's Mr. America character made the list at number five, followed by the singer Bruce Springsteen; Punk emphasized that he didn't mean Bruce Dickinson, who is also a singer but hailing from England. 

He positioned his wife, AJ Lee, specifically in a red, white, and blue bikini, at number six. But he added that this was his first pick, he just didn't want to appear to be playing favorites. 

At seven he suggested The Patriot, though neither The Dark Patriot nor Tom Brady. SGT Slaughter was next, followed by The Undertaker wearing 'his favorite' Betsy Ross flag duster. Finally, and most plausible even if remote, he suggested they try and open up the check book to bring John Cena back to the ring less than a year after he retired.

On the other side of things, Rey Mysterio will be leading Team Mexico and has thus far secured Rey Fenix and Penta, with two more teammates to be determined.
