UPDATE 2: A new report has some details on the changes to the match order for WWE Survivor Series. PWInsider confirms that the match lineup was originally the one that Fightful reported, but it was reversed just before the show. The match order change was made at about 5:45 PM ET.

UPDATE: Fightful select reports that they have been informed of “a major change” to the lineup tonight and that the opening match and main event may end up being switched.

ORIGINAL: Survivor Series is starting very shortly, and a new report has details on the planned match order as of this afternoon. Fightful Select reports that the planned match order at that point was as follows:

* Kickoff Show: Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Damian Priest
* Opener: Roman Reigns vs. Big E
* Second Match: Women’s Survivor Series
* Semi-Main Event: Men’s Survivor Series
* Main Event: Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte Flair.

The site notes that the 20-Man Dual Battle Royal as well as RK-Bro vs. The Usos are in spots that could end up flexing them into different spots on the card, and those could end up change the full match order. In addition, there’s no mention of The Rock being backstage for the appearance that some have speculated.
