On this day, Shawn Michaels "defeated" Bret Hart at the 1997 Survivor Series and changed things...forever.




Re: Angle

Supposedly, he wanted to come back as a part timer, but was only offered a full-time deal because McMahon and Helmsley are a--holes like that.

Should be a interesting show. I want to see how they handle this tournament set up, I'm hoping its like deadly games with 16 men. Also the authority should start the Seth Rollins bashing tonight to kick start the return and feud.
 
Survivor Series should of really been 4 hours this year being its Taker's 25th anniversary and especially now with the WHC being vacated and needing a tournament to crown a new champion. With a 4 hour show you would of gotten enough Taker love mixed with wrestling all in a fashionable amount of time.
 
I hope Survivor Series is Takers final match. He started his WWE career there, that's where it should end

For those that want to wait, don't read the RAW Spoilers

* The WWE World Heavyweight Title is in the ring as Triple H makes his way out alone. He talks about Seth Rollins' injury and announces a new tournament to begin tonight to crown a new champion. A big "thank you Rollins" chant started. Roman Reigns came out and Triple H put the title on him, offering him the chance to be in The Authority. Reigns turns it down and will face Big Show in a tournament match.

* Tournament Match: Roman Reigns defeated Big Show in a very lackluster match, crown wasn't engaged at all. Reigns advances.

* Tournament Match: WWE Intercontinental Champion Kevin Owens defeated Titus O'Neil. Owens cut a good heel promo before the match and won with a pop-up powerbomb. Owens stopped and stared at the title at ringside for a pop. Owens advances.

* Backstage segment with Paige and Renee Young, talking about the WWE Divas Champion Charlotte and Survivor Series. Paige will face Becky Lynch tonight.

* Becky Lynch defeated Paige with a handful of tights. Paige attacked Becky after the match and applied the PTO on the announce table. Charlotte came out, Paige broke the hold and walked away.

* Tournament Match: Dolph Ziggler defeated The Miz with a superkick. After the match, Ziggler grabbed the belt and raised it. The crowd popped big for Ziggler with the title. Ziggler advances.

* WWE United States Champion Alberto Del Rio and Zeb Colter came out for a promo on MexAmerica. They got a lot of good heat talking about current affairs in the UK and Europe. Del Rio will face Stardust in a tournament match on SmackDown.

* Natalya defeated Naomi. Fans chanted "we want Sasha" all during the match. Sasha Banks attacked after the match but Natalya put her in the Sharpshooter. Tamina Snuka made the save and Sasha put the Banks Statement on Natalya until she tapped.

* Sheamus and King Barrett come out. Barrett gets a big pop while Sheamus is booed. Barrett cut a promo on Wayne Rooney during the commercial, invited him in the ring and then insulted him for failing. Great crowd reaction.

* Tournament Match: Cesaro defeated Sheamus after a distraction. Barrett and Sheamus had been exchanging words with Rooney during the match and Rooney hit Barrett for the distraction.

* Tournament Match: Dean Ambrose defeated Tyler Breeze with a small package. This was described as a good debut match for Breeze.

* Fans had been chanting for WWE Tag Team Champions The New Day all night and they came out to a massive pop. The New Day defeated The Usos and Neville when Neville went for Red Arrow and got pushed off the top. Xavier Woods pinned him with his feet on the ropes. New Day got the best reaction of the night. Neville also got a good reaction.

* The main event segment is a tribute for Kane and The Undertaker by Bray Wyatt. Wyatt comes out alone and talks about the spirits of Kane and Taker, the change ahead. Taker's music hits to a big pop. The Brothers of Destruction come out and the crowd goes mental. The rest of The Wyatt Family runs down but Taker and Kane clear the ring. Braun Strowman fights back but they throw him into the announce table. They hit a double chokeslam on Wyatt and walk out together to end the show.
 
Rollins' vacancy creates a great opportunity for Reigns. He can either continue to be the babyface de jure or he can be the absolute heel. It's a great opportunity for Ambrose too who, in the absence of Cena, actually has the crowd reaction to be the top face, but needs a heel to go against. The top babyface and the top heel are gone. They can fill those spots. They need each other right now, and they can make each other. Reigns as the muscle for the Authority fits his character better than face Reigns doing babyface comebacks. He's the bigger guy too which makes Ambrose look like the underdog. That feud would be money. Face Reigns hasn't succeeded at the level it should've, given the type of push he has had. This feels like the natural, organic path that the story should go which is why they won't do it. I think now is the time to put the belt on Reigns, because I can't see his momentum being better than it is now.

A Reigns/Ambrose feud can be good with the history between the men.
 
Hmmm I have this feeling Ziggler is going to defeat Roman in the finals. Then they can feud while Dolph becomes the face of The Authority.

Not a bad bracket, although would of had Big E and Kofi Kingston instead of Kalisto and Titus O'Neil. Also my final four is Reigns vs. Ryback and KO vs. Ambrose with the finals being Reigns vs. Ambrose. So it seems they might be setting up for a Reigns heel turn and joining the authority.

Guessing Ziggler v Roman in the final , Authority screws Ziggler over and helps Roman win Roman turns heel (shades of Survivor Series: Deadly Games)[/BLACKOUT]
 
Oh jeesh. They are going to make Roman do a suspended over a flaming shark tank match...
 
That picture of Seth Rollins' knee. Ouch.
 
If you want to Be the Wrestling Thread, you have to be my Wrestling Thread.
 
And here we go with the opening tournament match. We all know who is winning this match.
 
I've gotta give it to him, Trips was pretty awesome in that segment
 
Is that the World's Largest Knee Brace?
 
Yes, I have pockets in my Wrestling Thread, that's how awesome I am
