In all, 26 wrestlers took part in televised matches at the 1992 Survivor Series, far less than in any previous year. The company climate had changed so much by the end of 1992, and would continue to do so throughout 1993, when half of those 26 wrestlers would be gone by the time the next Survivor Series rolled around.

The 13 survivors were Owen Hart, Samu, Fatu, Tatanka, Rick Martel, Randy Savage, Razor Ramon, Yokozuna, Virgil (mostly on house shows by the fall of 1993), Irwin R. Schyster, Undertaker, Bret Hart, and Shawn Michaels.

As for the unlucky 13 to be out of the WWE picture, we're talking Koko B. Ware, The Big Boss Man, Nailz, Mr. Perfect, Ric Flair, Ted Dibiase, Beau Beverly, Blake Beverly, Brian Knobbs, Jerry Sags, Earthquake, Typhoon, and Kamala. What a difference a year can make, indeed.
