WWE SmackDown notes: Carmella ambushes Sasha Banks, Survivor Series updates

Carmella made her return and ambushed the brand's champion and multiple additions were made to both of SmackDown's Survivor Series teams.

To open the 11/6 episode of Friday Night SmackDown on FOX, Sasha Banks successfully defended the SmackDown Women’s Title against Bayley via submission. As Banks celebrated her victory on the entrance ramp, she was ambushed by the returning Carmella who has had video packages air on WWE programming over the past several months to promote her return to TV. Carmella last competed at the Money In The Bank pay-per-view in May.

Two additions were made to SmackDown’s men’s Survivor Series team. King Corbin earned his spot on the team by defeating Rey Mysterio. Rey was distracted on the outside by Seth Rollins, Aalyah and Murphy respectively which led to Corbin hitting the “End Of Days” on him for the win. Seth Rollins gained his way onto Team SmackDown after winning a match against Otis with assistance from Murphy.

Rollins joins Kevin Owens, Jey Uso and King Corbin on Team SmackDown.

Ruby Riott is joining Bianca Belair on the women’s Survivor Series team. Ruby bested Natalya and Zelina Vega in a three-way match.

It was announced during a commercial break that this coming Monday on RAW, Drew McIntyre will be a guest on ‘A Moment of Bliss’ with Alexa Bliss.
