Austin Theory has replaced Rey Mysterio on Team RAW at the WWE Survivor Series pay-per-view.

Tonight's Survivor Series go-home edition of RAW saw Bobby Lashley defeat Mysterio in the main event. Rey was looking to get payback on Lashley for how he returned last week and defeated Dominik Mysterio, to take Dominik's Team RAW spot. Adam Pearce watched the Rey vs. Lashley match from backstage and later announced that due to the well-being of Rey and Team RAW, he had to pull Rey from the team, with a replacement to be announced at a later date. Theory then hit the ring and dropped Dominik from behind with the ATL. Pearce was posing for a selfie as officials tended to Rey and Dominik when Pearce came back out to the stage. Pearce said he liked Theory's style, and then named him as Rey's Team RAW replacement.
