6 Ups And 3 Downs From WWE Survivor Series WarGames

UPS…

6. Ozzy!

How could you not love having Ozzy Osbourne be a major part of the opening video for Survivor Series Saturday night?

Credit to WWE for using Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” as the Survivor Series theme song, a perfect tune for the first appearance of WarGames on the main roster. That alone was a smart use of popular commercial music, something WWE doesn’t do much of these days.

But then they went a step further and had Ozzy himself star in the intro video, with his performance interspersed between clips of the wrestlers. Then, the Prince of Darkness welcomed everyone to WarGames.

Really, there’s not much else to say, other than to give credit where it’s due.
