Ordinarily when a pay-per-view justifies it, this piece - an evolving love letter to the art and heart of wrestling attire - strives to find pointed splashes of colour, minor notes of detail or little winks and nudges literally sewn into a performer's aesthetic that carry the titular hidden meanings or symbolic heft before a worked (worked, Nia) punch is even thrown.

This will be no different of course, though it's worth mentioning almost all of the main roster here as one big honourable mention - the bulk of the stars committed to the brand supremacy bit with their red or blue gear variants, with some (and more on those later) going several leaps further than the rest with some glorious ensembles fit for WrestleMania rather than the 'Show Of Shows' Thanksgiving cousin.

If anything, Survivor Series exposes those that see no point or purpose making the investment in the concept for one night only. The talents are normalised as it is, rounded like cattle and branded by the t-shirts they're forced to wear - those that try and step out from the ordinary deserve the extra credit and spotlight on this night even more than when they step out on 'The Grandest Stage'.

10. The New Day

Regulars on lists such as these, The New Day nailed their attire choice as usual with a stirring reminder of the blue brand's past as they proudly represented its present.

With their team name scrawled in the exact style of the original and much-loved SmackDown logo, Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and Big E also had the iconic giant fist from the second SmackDown set breaking down walls - just as they have during their remarkable four year run as a trio.
