WWE SURVIVOR SERIES

Sunday, November 24th, 2013
Long Island, NY


What happened to Survivor Series?
Not that it was ever that great to begin with...but it is one of the big four...definitely the worst of the four...but it's supposed to be a big deal, right? This show may have been the worst ppv of the year. It wasn't that there were no good matches, it's just that the two matches that were good felt like Smackdown main events.
I will say this: the main event of next month's TLC, a TLC match with Orton vs. Cena for both titles, is a lot more intriguing than the last few ppv main events.
My hope? Orton unifies the belts, keeps the title 'till 'Mania and loses it to Daniel Bryan. A boy can dream, no?

CODY RHODES, GOLDDUST, REY MYSTERIO & THE USO'S vs. THE REAL AMERICANS & THE SHIELD: The match of the night! Roman Reigns won after eliminating four of his foes. It was fast-paced, felt like a TV main event. A good start to a dull show. **1/2 (out of ****)

BIG E LANGSTON vs. CURTIS AXEL: Ugh. Didn't watch.

DIVA ELIMINATION MATCH: 7 on 7. What a trainwreck! Didn't watch. I assume it was a trainwreck. I do like AJ, though, just not in the ring.

MARK HENRY vs. RYBACK: More ugh. Didn't watch.

JOHN CENA vs. ALBERTO DEL RIO: Cena won in a match nobody cared about. There were a ton of near-falls but that didn't even compel me. *

CM PUNK & DANIEL BRYAN vs. LUKE HARPER & ERIK ROWAN: Good match but nothing special. The main dude of the Wyatt family didn't even wrestle...his two brothers did. I feel bad that the two best wrestlers in the WWE are in a feud like this. **

THE BIG SHOW vs. RANDY ORTON: Awful. I figured that, since the WWE knew this would suck, they'd throw in some tables, chairs, ring-steps, anything really, to make it watchable. I believe a chair was used...but Orton won after HHH and Stephanie showed up on the stage and "distracted" The Big Show. Orton punted The Big Show in the head and won. Cena came out after and raised his title in the ring and got in Orton's face...for no real good reason. -No Stars-
