It wasn't promoted as heavily as some of the other bouts on the card, but Survivor Series 2016's 10-on-10 tag team elimination match was one of the night's best. It was a crowded, messy affair, but both sides kept a frantic pace throughout, with little touches like Breezango handing out fashion violation tickets and The New Day's shockingly early elimination keeping things interesting.

While it'd be great to have another Usos vs. New Day banger somewhere on the card, WWE will likely throw a tag cluster together. It's an easy booking option that doesn't require a lot of thought, and it'll probably be a lot of fun too.

In terms of participants, look for The Hardy Boyz, Gallows and Anderson, Sheamus and Cesaro, Heath Slater and Rhyno, and a freshly called up Authors Of Pain on the Raw side. For SmackDown, it'll probably be a mixture of heavy hitters like The Usos and New Day, early elimination fodder in the form of The Ascension, and in-betweeners like Breezango and Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable.

That's one tremendously talented lineup, and if they're able to find half as much cohesion as last year's teams, we'll be on to a winner.
