'Survivor Series' news, update: Triple H to replace Jason Jordan for Team Raw

WWE superstar Triple H on mic WWE.com

Another big name has been added to the roster of wrestlers that would join WWE's "Survivor Series," set to happen on Nov. 19, at Houston, Texas. Triple H will be the fifth man for Raw to compete in the pay-per-view event.

A seemingly familiar and prominent face appeared on Monday night "Raw," announcing himself as the last and final member to join the "Survivor Series" on behalf of Raw wrestlers. Triple H surprised many avid wrestling fans, who had last seen "The Game" in WrestleMania in April.

In the episode, Kurt Angle was announcing that his son, Jason Jordan, would not be able to compete in the "Survivor Series," following an injury that Jordan got from a match with Bray Wyatt. Angle obviously found it hard to reveal the bad news as he was in the ring, and as he was about to divulge the replacement for his son, Jordan appeared and pleaded to join the event.

WWE commissioner Stephanie McMahon then came into the ring to say that Angle had no choice but to make a hard decision. But, as Angle was about to announce the new name of his son's replacement, the crowd started cheering as Triple H had arrived.

Triple H then announced that he would be the one to compete in the "Survivor Series." After this, Triple H gave Jordan the pedigree, his trademark power move. With this announcement, things could possibly get stirred, as Angle had been receiving pressure from The Authority. 

A lot is at stake for Team Raw, especially since McMahon revealed earlier that Angle would be fired as a general manager of Raw if they were to lose in the "Survivor Series." Team Raw will consist of Angle as the team captain, Triple H, Braun Strowman, Samoa Joe, and Finn Balor, while Team Smackdown will consist of Shane McMahon as the team captain, John Cena, Randy Orton, Bobby Roode, and Shinsuke Nakamura.
