While Team RAW will remain the same, Team SmackDown! will now feature Chris Jericho, Kane, Matt Hardy, the Hart Dynasty, R-Truth and Finlay.<\/p>\n<p>As many would have guessed, the change was made Tuesday afternoon purely due to Vince McMahon&#8217;s belief that the original team, which featured Jericho, Kane, Cryme Tyme, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre and Eric Escobar, looked too weak to realistically compete with the RAW Superstars.<\/p>\n<p>Proof of how late the change was made (and it literally came at a production meeting the day of the SmackDown! taping), is obvious&#8211;the final segment on this week&#8217;s RAW featured a hard sell for the Bragging Rights tag match with the original RAW and SmackDown! teams brawling in the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Story On WWE&#039;s Major Change To Bragging Rights Card<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"*The following story contains a spoiler regarding a development at this week&#039;s SmackDown! taping.
