The SS gimmick has been dead for years and I'm actually happy that we don't have to sit through crappy put together matches just to fill the gimmick of the PPV. I'd much rather see actual matches then forced elimination matches just because it's SS.

That's fine, but then don't call it Survivor Series. Just get rid of it.

But did you guys not think the Ziggler Survivor Series win wasn't epic last year? They built up the angle really well and he pulled off an amazing victory for the "good guys".

I don't need to see four different elimination style matches, but one good one would allow the name to remain and make sense.

thats why I thought this whole survivor series with the contenders for the belt would have worked as an actual survivor series match instead of the tournament. Maybe they are thinking of having the entire wyatt family at ring side so they bring out sting and Baron Corbin or Finn Baylor to even up the sides

BALOR.

This should make you happy:

Traditional 5-on-5 Survivor Series Elimination Match to take place Sunday

Sorry, but ending the show with a contract signing for the Divas title is shit.

This SS storyline with Bray completely makes their WM utterly pointless. They needed to have a SS matchup and building storyline up until a good WM where Taker passes the torch....this SS should have been the lead up to Taker losing the streak at WM against Wyatt

I was against Lesnar ending the streak at the time but watching the last couple years play out I now think he was the perfect choice. He's the biggest star in wrestling. He keeps his mystique as a main event attraction because he appears on TV so infrequently. Heyman milked that accomplishment in his promos as the most epic event in wrestling history. I've just enjoyed everything about it.

 

[wazzu31]

I can get that line of thinking to me this storyline would've been better if something were on the line since Bray is already over with the fans it's setting up for basically them having to introduce a new darker character with Taker or its just the Wyatts and old guys. Just a storyline to me that is just late

 

[futballiscool]

I'm a huge Bray fan so I hope they have something big planned for him. It seems like their treating him more like early 90s heel Jake Roberts than Undertaker at this point (Jake's obviously one of the best ever but they never gave him a run with belt).. After Bray beat Bryan at the Rumble he had so much momentum as a future top guy. I hope they give him a huge win soon

New Report Lists Survivor WWE Series Arena as Possible Target of ISIS Attack on Sunday Night

I was just coming to make a thread about this.

Not condoning any terrorist attacks BUT if I was a terrorist, The WWE according to some promotes filth :shurg:

 

[Duffman]

We should see what their demands are. Maybe they wont attack the arena if Cesaro wins the title. Better do what they say.

Reigns got a great pop from the crowd.

I love the idea of Rusev as the enforcer in a main event stable

Not calling the WWE liars about Wrestle mania 7 but it's seems a rather convenient excuse moving venues and looking big. They were what 60,000 tickets shy of a sellout.

Does make me wonder what Lanas role is going to be or if they will just use her to pick up the pieces when Sheamus loses the belt.
