Initially, WWE chose Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Finn Balor, Rey Mysterio, and Dominik Mysterio for WWE Raw team. However, Bobby Lashley returned to WWE Raw: November 8th, 2021, and Adam Pearce changed his mind.
He informed Dominik Mysterio that every member of Team Raw was a previous champion. Therefore, he would need to battle Lashley for the spot. As expected, The Almighty destroyed Dominik and took his spot on the team.
Finally, on WWE Raw: November 15th, 2021, Bobby Lashley destroyed Rey Mysterio, and Austin Theory replaced him on the team.

Initially, the WWE SmackDown Survivor Series team members were Shotzi, Shayna Baszler, Sasha Banks, Natalya, and Aliyah.
However, on WWE SmackDown: November 12th, 2021, Naomi interfered when Sonya Deville was announcing the team. As a result, Natalya, Shayna Baszler and Shotzi teamed up against Sasha Banks, Naomi, and Aliyah in a six-man tag team match.
Aliyah pinned Natalya for the win, but Sonya Deville didn’t appreciate Naomi’s team winning. Therefore, in a backstage segment, Deville informed Aliyah that she was no longer a part of Team SmackDown.
