The Lowdown

This is a roster announcement, not a match result, and WWE has not posted a date for the Team USA match itself. The official highlight is unambiguous about the lineup beat: Punk is with Rhodes, and Dominik is turned away by both Rhodes and Rey Mysterio. The official Raw results page uses a different heading — “CM Punk joined Cody Rhodes on Team Raw” — while the official highlight title, its description, and Mike Johnson’s PWInsider report all say Team USA. We are following those three.

CM Punk joins Cody Rhodes on Team USA: Raw highlights, Nov. 9, 2026

The Full Story

The official Raw results for Nov. 9 list the Punk segment among the night’s televised moments, and WWE posted an official highlight under the title CM Punk joins Cody Rhodes on Team USA: Raw highlights, Nov. 9, 2026. The clip description is the most detailed official account of the beat: Punk joins Rhodes on Team USA, then Rhodes and Rey Mysterio reject Dominik Mysterio from joining either team. That official video is also on WWE’s YouTube channel, and it is embedded above.

PWInsider published the same night. Mike Johnson’s report is short and direct: Punk is “the second member of Team USA at the WWE Survivor Series.” Together with the official highlight, that is enough to report the announcement. We are not adding dialogue or ring action that those writeups do not spell out.

The same episode produced two other official WWE highlights that fill in the other side of the “either team” line. One is titled Je’Von Evans joins Team USA: Raw highlights, Nov. 9, 2026. The other is titled Penta joins Rey Mysterio on Team Mexico: Raw highlights, Nov. 9, 2026. Those titles are official WWE uploads; they are not a substitute for a full match card, and we are not treating them as results of a match.

That leaves Je’Von Evans as another official Team USA addition on the same show, and Penta with Rey Mysterio on Team Mexico. Dominik, declined by both sides in the official Punk highlight, is not listed on either of those official clips. Other Nov. 9 Raw developments already on PCP include Becky Lynch’s Survivor Series title match with Liv Morgan and Jacob Fatu’s return as Roman Reigns challenged The 946 to WarGames.
