After showing the Team Cena members a clip of the Cenation leader ’ s exclusive WWE . com interview with Michael Cole , The Cerebral Assassin informed all four Superstars that if their group loses at Survivor Series , all four of them will be fired ! Just moments after finding out his job is on the line at Survivor Series , Team Cena ’ s Dolph Ziggler was tasked with stepping inside the ring against Team Authority ’ s Rusev . The Showoff came within a second of handing The Super Athlete his first pinfall loss , but in the end , it was an explosive Superkick from the United States Champion that left the bleached - blond Superstar down for the three - count . Following the contest , the hulking Russian sympathizer put an exclamation point on his victory by locking his opponent in the Accolade . Both The Usos and WWE Tag Team Champions Gold & Stardust joined the SmackDown announce team to watch Los Matadores battle The Miz & Damien Mizdow , placing all four tag teams involved in Sunday ’ s Fatal 4 - Way WWE Tag Team Title Match within arm ’ s reach . In one of the oddest moments in recent SmackDown memory , after Diego sent The Awesome One spiraling onto Jimmy & Jey Uso at ringside , Miz ’ s stunt double reenacted the scene by throwing himself onto the WWE Tag Team Champions .
