Two Big Changes For WWE Survivor Series Announced

SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch announced on tonight's WWE SmackDown that her replacement for Sunday's Survivor Series pay-per-view will be Charlotte Flair. Flair will now face RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey in a non-title match due to Becky suffering injuries on RAW. As noted, WWE announced that Lynch suffered a broken face and a severe concussion at the hands of Nia Jax during the RAW invasion.

It was also announced on tonight's SmackDown that Daniel Bryan will no longer be on the men's Team SmackDown for Survivor Series. Captain The Miz announced Jeff Hardy as his replacement.
