10 Fascinating WWE Survivor Series 1992 Facts

10. A Thin Roster Led To The Scrapping Of The Elimination Format

When the show opened with High Energy vs. The Headshrinkers, in what could've been the feature match of any Prime Time Wrestling episode of the day, you knew Survivor Series had entered a new age. No longer was the show rigidly scheduled to host four or five tag team elimination matches, and was instead "just another night" for WWE.

The only elimination match saw The Nasty Boys and The Natural Disasters take on Money Inc and The Beverly Brothers. Aside from that, it was singles and tag team matches up and down the card, with nothing else befitting of the Survivor Series name.

The reason for the change stemmed from the diminished quality of the roster. It wasn't just the loss of major names, but the fact that the midcard was filled with such non-established talents like Max Moon, Damien Demento, and others that led to WWE rolling into Thanksgiving Eve with a less-populated card for the night.
