Oh, the Total Divas match. Survivor Series has featured far better women's elimination matches: 1987, 1995, and 2016 all immediately come to mind. This, however, wasn't good. It functionally acted as a commercial for WWE's E! Network docu-drama, and it allowed the likes of Jojo and Eva Marie to wrestle long before they were ready. Not that some of their contemporaries were all that much better.

The match does, however, have the distinction of being the first Survivor Series elimination match since 1988 to have more than ten participants, this one having 14. That's about the only time you'll see Rosa Mendes and Aksana compared to The Hart Foundation and Demolition.

Additionally, the seven-on-seven match holds the record for most eliminations in one Survivor Series match. In this case, 12 (in less than 12 minutes) were needed to end it.
