WWE fans eagerly anticipating Survivor Series 2023 spoiler will have to adjust their expectations, as at least one highly-anticipated matchup has been officially ruled out. According to reports from Dave Meltzer, it appears that the clash fans were yearning for between Roman Reigns and his Raw counterpart, Seth Rollins, is not in the cards for this year’s premium live event.
On a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer revealed that, as of the time of recording, WWE had no intentions of pitting their Undisputed Universal and World Heavyweight Champions against each other at Survivor Series 2023. This development comes as a surprise, considering that the event has historically been a stage for high-stakes Raw vs. SmackDown showdowns during the brand split era.
The stage setup for Survivor Series will be changed due to ticket demand.
