The big news over the weekend was that Sting will make his WWE debut during the event. Also rumoured to be showing up is Randy Orton.

Sting Finally Debuts In WWE!

The WCW Icon has arrived! Full news at http://whatculture.com/wwe/sting-makes-wwe-debut-survivor-series.php Overall, that was a poor show, but the dramatic ending just about made up for it! Check the news link out for what went down and what this means for the WWE!

Ziggler Vs Rollins

Ziggler hits the zig zag on Kane for the pin, before getting a roll up on Harper. It's an exciting climax to a dramatic main event as it's now just Ziggler vs Rollins!

Harper Eliminates Rowan, Big Show Turns Heel And Cena Is Gone! - 03.35 GMT / 22.35 EST

Harper pins Rowan after Rollins hit illegal interference. Big Show turns heel and blasts Cena with a KO Punch. Cena eliminated by Rollins. It's Dolph Ziggler vs Harper, Kane & Rollins!

Rusev Eliminated By Count Out - 03.32 GMT / 22.32 EST

Rusev dives through the spanish commentary table with the aim of hitting Ziggler. Dolph moves at the last second, causing Rusev to crash through the wood. The ref starts a count out and Rusev is eliminated!

The Big Guy Is Eliminated! - 03.19 GMT / 22.19 EST

After Mark Henry was eliminated by Big Show, things have been evened up as Ryback was eliminated by Rusev! It wasn't clean. There was a group brawl and Rollins had hit the curb stomp on the big guy. Still, this was really surprising. Ryback is the most over guy of the past few weeks and on a career resurgence. This was meant to be his night to dominate... instead he's gone early.

No Sting... Yet

The main event is underway and still no Sting. Right away, Big Show knocked out Mark Henry with the KO Punch.

Nikki Bella Is New Diva Champ - 02.50 GMT / 21.50 EST

Nikki Bella defeated AJ Lee for the diva title in almost no time at all. Brie turned heel by siding back with Nikki (logic?) and kissing AJ as a distraction (just like AJ did to Daniel Bryan at Mania 28). Lee turned into a forearm and rack attack from Nikki. 1.2.3. What this means for AJ is unknown. There was a rumour that she's leaving WWE and it'd be a pretty good indication of her exit that she lost in this manner. We'll have to wait and see. Again, this match was almost nothing. The show has really lacked anything of substance so far.

Roman Reigns Turns Up... Via Satellite - 02.45 GMT / 21.45 EST

Roman Reigns was introduced via satellite. You can tell he's been investing in acting lessons, as his promo work has really improved. He talked up his return next month and played to the crowd a bit.

WWE Network Problems

My WWE Network stream has been perfect, with the exception of a brief pause and loss of quality in the diva elimination match. For other fans it is proving a different story. My colleague John Canton has had Network problems and resorted to an alternative stream. Other fans are reporting similar problems. I'll say this about WWE Network, after watching UFC FightPass for a lot of the weekend, watching WWE's Network is so much better quality in its presentation and stream quality. At least in my experience. Let us know how your Network stream is holding up by tweeting https://twitter.com/WhatCultureWWE

Ambrose Loses By DQ - 02.25 GMT / 21.25 EST

As I figured in my predictions, Dean Ambrose lost to Bray Wyatt by DQ. It started as a decent match, with an intense and athletic pace to action. Both men worked well in the ring and exchanged big hits. Bray then stopped proceedings to cut a promo. He then brought a chair to the ring, which Ambrose used to whack the heel. This was basically one big advert for a rematch at TLC. After the match we had Ambrose pulling out more chairs, tables and ladders. This show is lacking substance so far.

Sting Hasn't Shown Up... Yet

There had been reports at PWInsider that Sting would debut just before or just after the diva elimination match. Well, that match has came and gone. There's still no Sting. We now have Ambrose vs Wyatt in the ring.

Team Natalya Wins - 02.01 GMT / 21.01 EST

The babyface divas bested the heel divas in a decent effort. However, it was fairly dull and poorly executed in the middle of the match, particularly when Summer was in the ring. But on the whole, this was an ok effort. It was mainly Natalya, Paige and Naomi in the ring. Those ladies are athletic and can work. Paige ended up on her own and the other girls worked her over until Naomi finished her for the pin.

Miz And Mizdow Are Tag Team Champions In A Good Opener - 01.38 GMT / 20.38 EST

In a good opener, Miz and Mizdow won the tag titles when Mizdow tagged in blind off Miz and stole the pin on Goldust. The story of the match had been that Mizdow was popular with the crowd but wouldn't get tagged in. Los Matadores, The Usos, the 'dusts and Miz / Mizdow all performed great in this match. There were various crash and burn spots, including a wild multi person suplex from the top rope. Several flips and dives from Stardust, Matadores and of course The Usos.

Pay Per View Starts With In Ring Segment - 01.10 GMT / 20.10 EST

Show opens with a big pop for Vince, who then introduces Stephanie and Hunter. There's now plenty of signs in the crowd. Cena comes out and there's a bit of back and forth promo work. The end result is Vince announcing that if the Authority loses, the only person who'll be able to rehire them is John Cena.

Mr McMahon Is Here - 00.59 GMT / 19.59 EST

As the preshow ends, Mr McMahon is shown getting out of a limo. It's going to be an exciting night in terms of storyline!

Cesaro Taps To Swagger - 00.58 GMT / 19.58 EST

Jack Swagger defeated Cesaro in a final preshow match. It was short but decent, although you have to wonder who Cesaro has p***** off in management. Tapping to Swagger's ankle lock is not good.

Signs Banned From Arena? - 00.48 GMT / 19.48 EST

Fans in attendance at Survivor Series have taken to social media to say that signs are banned. Not even controversial signs, but every sign is being confiscated as fans enter the building. Indeed, right now on the preshow, there's a notable lack of signs. This is pretty strange. WWE usually encourage signs.

Barrett Returns - 00.30 GMT / 19.30 EST

Bad News Barrett is back! However, this was literally just a minute or so of him doing his "bad news" act on the stage. It was completely irrelevant and meaningless, but still cool to see Bad News back on screen. Considering this was the big marketing point of the preshow, this really was pretty weak.

Fandango Defeats Justin Gabriel In Preshow - 00.17 GMT / 19.17 EST

Fandango defeated Gabriel in a short match. Very little in the way of action, Fandango won with a big leg drop. The gimmick change is that he's now a flamenco dancer. Rosa Mendes as his new valet looked hot, but that's about as good as it got. A developing story is that the building is near empty. Michael Cole put it down to delays in getting to the arena due to bad weather.

Sting Will Be "Unveiled" Before Or After Divas Match - 23.55 GMT / 18.55 EST

The word from PWInsider is that Sting will be unveiled after or before the WWE Diva elimination match. The script could always change, but that would make sense with a hot spot following / preceding the low profile divas. So, it would appear that there'll be no major angle, just a straightforward unveiling.

What's CM Punk Up To Tonight? - 23.45 GMT / 18.45 EST

CM Punk will not be at WWE Survivor Series. There's heightened speculation on Punk / WWE after the company unleashed a few lines of his merchandise this past week. Despite the Internet Wrestling Community speculating about Punk, there's no indication that he's the third big surprise for tonight's show. He'll probably not even bother to watch the broadcast, despite his wife AJ Lee wrestling on the card. He's more of a MMA guy these days. He spent Saturday tweeting about Frankie Edgar's impressive victory over Cub Swanson at UFC Fight Night 57. He also shouted out Paul Heyman in his series of tweets.

Latest Update On Sting Travelling To Survivor Series - 23.12 GMT / 18.12 EST

Sting was booked on a plane into Kansas City this Sunday morning, reports PWInsider. He was flying from Dallas and WWE managed to keep him away from fans who were after photos. As of a few hours ago, he was completing his journey to St.Louis. It's really exciting that this is finally happening! The WCW Icon will finally appear in WWE. It was reported by Wrestling Observer Radio that the WWE decision to use Sting was a very late call. The legendary wrestler was promoting WWE 2K15 for most of the week and knew nothing about WWE's plans until later in the week.

Update For WWE Network Users On PS3 - 23.00 GMT / 18.00 EST

A word of warning for Playstation 3 users who intend to watch Survivor Series on WWE Network. To watch the Network app, there's a new Playstation update that needs to be completed. Make sure to leave plenty of time to complete the update before show time!

Chris Jericho Is The Third Surprise? - 22.30 GMT / 17.30 EST

Chris Jericho got in on the Survivor Series buzz with this teasing tweet earlier in the weekend. This was after Dave Meltzer reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that a third surprise could be joining Sting and Randy Orton on the Survivor Series show. In all likelihood, Jericho was just having some fun with this tweet. He likes to "Jeri-troll" his followers. Sting and Orton on the other hand are surely going to show up. Sting is already trending on Twitter and it'll be a major disappointment if he doesn't end up appearing.
