10 Awesome WWE Survivor Series Matches You Totally Forgot About

2. Barry Horowitz, Hakushi, Bob Holly & Marty Jannetty vs. Skip, Rad Radford, Tom Prichard & 1-2-3 Kid (Survivor Series Elimination Match - 1995)

One look at the above names would lead most to wonder how they even made it onto a WWE pay-per-view, let alone on a list counting down the best of anything. After all, Horowitz was an opening match jobber for most of his career, Holly was an enhancement guy, Radford and Skip were two of WWE's least effective heel gimmicks of 1995 and Hakushi was biding time until his release, despite being an exceptional worker. Only Jannetty and the Kid were involved in anything even remotely meaningful in the grand scheme of things and it would be those two that were responsible for ending the contest on a high note. Before that, however, fans would get a peak at the strong performances they could expect out of the Superstars when given an opportunity on a grand stage such as the one Survivor Series provides. Skip, in particular, was phenomenal as he was finally allowed to demonstrate the considerable skill he had displayed in Smoky Mountain Wrestling. He, however, would be ousted from the bout following a breathtaking top-rope powerbomb by Jannetty. Late in the contest, Jannetty was surging and a win over Kid was looking likely. Then, with the official distracted, the Million Dollar Corporation's Sycho Sid shoved Jannetty off the ropes and to the mat, allowing Kid to pick up the pieces and score the win for him and his team. It was the first major victory in the newly-turned Kid's heel run and one that helped establish him as one of the most hated and despised characters on the roster. As for everyone else in the match? They would either descend further into obscurity or they would be gone from the company altogether by the time the following year's show rolled around. Still, the contest ranks as one of the most unexpectedly great in even history thanks to the will and drive of all involved. They did not allow their spot on the card to devalue the quality of their performances and as a result, the opening contest of the 1995 show set the stage for the outstanding evening of action that would follow.
