10 Things WWE Did Right At Survivor Series

1. The Debut Of Sting

The WWE debut of Sting has been anticipated by wrestling fans for decades. People wanted him to go to WWE in the 1990s, then they figured in the 2000s it would happen after WWE bought WCW in 2001 and every year after that time we hoped for it. Finally in 2014 it's a reality as Sting made his entrance during some cheap tactics by Triple H. Sting's ovation was memorable and worthy of a guy that is one of the most famous pro wrestlers of the last 30 years. Even though he's in his mid-50s with possibly one match left in his career, fans were excited just because we had never seen him in a WWE ring before. His debut was done the right way. He didn't say a word. He knocked down heel ref Scott Armstrong with a punch and then faced off with Triple H. When Sting hit him with a Scorpion Death Drop it looked perfect. It was even better when Sting put a motionless Ziggler over Rollins and that was enough to give Team Cena the win. While we shouldn't consider it a shocker since it was leaked online two days earlier, the WWE debut of Sting was noteworthy because it was the first time he had ever been on camera in a WWE arena. The ending of the show also leaves us with plenty of questions like what Sting's role will be going forward and if his WrestleMania 31 opponent is going to be Triple H. It's probably going to be Hunter, but until it's official we don't know for sure. Good job by WWE ending the PPV with a strong cliffhanger and a promise for a new direction now that The Authority is out of power.
