I've been watching again lately after a long hiatus. I just can't buy into Punk at all.

How ironic, they chose teams that are feuding with each other...haven't seen that before.

This is actually the true Survivor Series match. Team Raw vs. Team Smackdown will be Team Foley vs. Team Punk. Never seen two guys pick their own partners instead of the GM of both shows picking the captains and participants.
I have a feeling that it will come down to Ryback and Punk and maybe have Lesnar do a run in and help Team Punk win.

^ What do you mean Raw vs. Smackdown? Those are not Raw and Smackdown wrestlers!

at Survivor Series they've always had Team Raw vs. Team Smackdown, well they aren't doing that this year, they are using Team Foley vs. Team Punk as the traditional Team Raw vs. Team Smackdown is what some people are saying

This will be WWE's way of giving back to Ryback, he'll be the sole survivor and pin Punk...and Punk will still be champion.

Wade Barrett replaces Miz on team Punk
Is this match even gonna happen? Vince was saying something about a triple threat match for the WWE championship between Punk/Cena/Ryback at Survivor Series

Punk will defend his title in a triple threat match at Survivor Series
Dolph Ziggler is now the captain for Team Punk at Survivor Series now Mic Foley has to pick a new member since Ryback is in the triple threat match

As seen Monday on Raw, WWE overhauled its plans for Survivor Series on November 18, 2012.
On the show, Vince McMahon mandated that CM Punk will defend his WWE Championship in a Triple Threat Match against Ryback and John Cena at the pay-per-view event. With this turn of events, Team Punk is now known as Team Ziggler, while Team Foley has an empty fifth slot. Prior to the change, The Miz quit the group in protest of Punk’s leadership, and was replaced by Wade Barrett after Paul Heyman aggressively sought him.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE changed their plans for multiple reasons. Among them was the belief that the originally scheduled main event, Team Punk vs. Team Foley in Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match, would draw dismal pay-per-view buy numbers. With rare exceptions, tag team matches as main events are generally mediocre earners on pay-per-view. The entire Bragging Rights concept was dropped for that very reason.
What also swayed plans for Survivor Series were the pay-per-view buy figures for Hell in a Cell on DirecTV being “surprisingly strong.” Privately, McMahon credited Ryback for the result and felt placing him in a ten-man tag team match, even though he would likely be left standing, would not be beneficial to him. McMahon feels they need to capitalize on Ryback’s momentum, which would require the muscle-bound grappler to challenge for the WWE Championship in the main event.
