7. Team WWF (Vince McMahon, The Rock, Chris Jericho, Kane & The Undertaker) vs. Team Alliance ("Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Booker T, Kurt Angle, Rob Van Dam & Shane McMahon) - (Survivor Series 2001)
It should come as a shock to absolutely nobody that Vince and Shane McMahon would have been involved in the feud-concluding match of the "Invasion" storyline. Prior to Wrestlemania X-7, it was Shane's purchase of WCW that kicked things off, so Shane and Vince joining their wrestling surrogates in the "winner-take-all"match makes sense. However, prior to the pay-per-view, Vince was injured by The Alliance and replaced by The Big Show. Maybe Vince thinking that the main event needed another ex-WCW element on Team WWF to throw over-thinking fans into a tizzy, it certainly added an extra level of excitement to one of the more intriguing WWF matches of the Attitude Era.
