10 WWE Stars Who Could Claim To Be Mr. Survivor Series

3. Shawn Michaels

Record: 7-10 Number of main events: 7 (1989, 1992, 1996, 1997, 2002, 2005, 2009) You may think that the 7-10 record isn't that impressive, but he's tied for the most matches at Survivor Series and leads with the most main event matches with seven. All the record means is that he put a lot of people over in his career, which is something his haters said he didn't do often enough. Numbers never lie. Shawn made his Survivor Series debut in 1988 and in the next year he was on The Ultimate Warrior's team as part of The Rockers in the main event of that show. By 1992 he was main eventing as a solo act in a very underrated match against Bret Hart. The 1996 main event was a loss against Sid, which led to him winning the WWE Title back two months later. 1997? Yeah, something big happened there. The 2002 match was the first Elimination Chamber and a huge moment for him. In 2005 he was part of a Raw vs. Smackdown tag match and in 2009, which was his last Survivor Series, he lost in a triple threat while challenging for the WWE Title. That's a 20 year difference between Survivor Series main events. The most famous Survivor Series match he had was in 1997 against Bret Hart. It's the night when Bret was screwed out of the WWE Title. At the time, Shawn told Bret he wasn't in on it although he did reveal that he knew all about it years later. If you take out the four year absence in Shawn's career, he was in WWE for nearly 20 years. That might be his most famous match, which says a lot because of how great he was. Five years after that match, he competed in the first Elimination Chamber in 2002. He was one of the six men that were guinea pigs in terms of trying out that match. It was a huge moment in his career since he went on to win the World Heavyweight Title, which was the last major World Title win in his career. Despite having the most losses in the history of the event, there's no question that Shawn was one of the best performers in Survivor Series history.
