WWE pudo contar un montón de cosas con el México vs. USA, pero decidieron darle las capitanías a dos descafeinados.
Hubieran hecho un equipo de «heels» que se burlará de la máscaras semana a semana e invitar a un par de leyendas —tanto de allá como de acá— a dichos segmentos.
See how boring and shit this build will be without Dom? This segment was a blackhole of low energy and no excitement.
Yall ready for 2 weeks of repsect-offs between a bunch of babyfaces?
If they're continuing the Team Mexico vs Team USA storyline on Smackdown to recruit people, I'd expect Dom to be on Smackdown tonight as the main focal point of the angle is Dominik trying to make his way into the match.
And it may stretch into AAA on Saturday.
I love the concept of Dom earning a spot through a multi-man match. Although they're probably going for the heel play to have him weasel in the match. Although Dom didn't look like a heel on RAW when he was trying to appeal to Rey & Cody. They didn't seem to mind Dom looking somewhat babyface-ish there.

Dominik acusó a Rey de infiel, luego dijo que dejaría lo personal de lado en #SurvivorSeries y terminó pidiendo su capitanía para que se fuera a AAA 🤨🔥
The BIGGEST takeaway I have from this: This entire storyline is revolving around Dom and involves the biggest names in the company...Cody, CM Punk, Rey, Penta. That's a good thing for Dom.
Interesting Wrestlevotes has Dom on or leading Team Mexico while there's some speculation that he's ending up on Team USA.
I think either storyline works fine and can get to a result that's positive for Dom.
If this stretches over into Smackdown I fully expect Dom to be on Smackdown since he will be working the house show tonight in Florida and Smackdown is in FL too.
2 Theories on how Dom makes it on either Team:
1. There's a suggestion that Cody may hold a multi-man match for the final spot and Dom wins that. Also saw Dom could beat Trick for the US Championship and Cody would he forced to put Dom on Team USA. Dom works best against Luchadores and I can see why they'd want him in the match.
2. Rey being suspended as GM on AAA plays a role in him not making it to the match to lead Team Mexico and Dom stepping in the lead the team.

Rest easy DomFC it is indeed an angle. Thank God. Because it would have been a crime not to include Dom in this. I knew Rey, Cody and Punk very publicly underestimating Dom was leading to something. The announcers played up his credibility and championship history.
"Rey's honest message for Dom."
Did I just fall head first into a storyline? This all sets up a little too perfect. Rey said this unprompted on a WWE podcast he wasn't previously scheduled for to announce a SS match. Said Dom needs to "step up."
Then Monday Dominik was very publicly underestimated by Rey, Cody and Punk. Setting up for Dom to save a team at SS. Punk said, "I didn't pout after losing" and looked at Dom. This would put Dom in a babyface position, but Dom didn't look like a heel Monday by appealing to Rey and Cody.
This podcast setting up Dom's next storyline would not be out of the realm of possibility. I'd give HHH his 10s and just admit he got me on this one.
Team USA vs Team Mexico to possibly play out on both WWE and AAA programming.
Now that Rey & Dom's storyline from AAA has been brought into WWE TV, look for that to play a role.
The last time Dom was underestimated and they teased that babyface turn. And it lead to the biggest pop of WM 41. Yall ready?😲
