7 Reasons Why WWE Survivor Series Is Still A Great Concept
7. The Matches Have Relevance
The whole aim of the game in a traditional Survivor Series elimination match is to end up on the winning team. Of course, if you can ensure youre the final man on that team, the true last man standing, the Sole Survivorthats an even greater achievement. With that kind of opportunity up for grabs, the traditional Survivor Series elimination match immediately bears great significance. Sure, being a Sole Survivor may not be on the same level as a Royal Rumble victory, but it still acts as a kayfabe accolade that gives the match an added importance. Besides, its a pretty elite list of names whove achieved such an honour; Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Ultimate Warrior, Ric Flair, The Rock, Bart Gunn, just to name a few. Watching guys compete for the chance to join that list and go down as the Sole Survivor sounds much more enticing than the kind of throwaway title defences that many PPVs are increasingly becoming riddled with. Straight off the bat, the Survivor Series elimination match gives fans a reason to care about the result.
