After Roman Reigns and King Woods had a heated moment in the ring, it was time to decide the final member of the Men’s SmackDown Survivor Series team, and it was between Jinder Mahal, Cesaro, Ricochet, and Sheamus. Early on it was anyone’s game, though Mahal tried to get one over on Sheamus by letting him help with Ricochet only to try a surprise knockout on Sheamus while he was distracted. That didn’t work, and everyone soon got back into the ring.

Then Cesaro had Mahal spinning for over 10 spins, while Ricochet kept Shanky busy on the outside of the ring. Then Sheamus came in to get a pin on Mahal, but Cesaro broke that up.
Then Sheamus went for a big kick but Cesaro ducked and went to lock in a submission on Sheamus. Ridge Holland came out with his nightstick though and threatened to break it up. Cesaro evaded a hit from Holland but before he could respond Holland jumped down off the mat.
That gave Sheamus the clear path to hit a huge kick that sent Cesaro reeling, and that was enough for the pin and the win. Holland came in to lift Sheamus’ arm in celebration.
