6. An Inter-Brand Tag Team Scramble

Last year's 10-on-10 tag team elimination match was one of Survivor Series' biggest highlights, and while other bookings prevent a repeat in 2017, WWE would be daft not to assemble something similar this November.

SmackDown's tag division is one of the show's biggest assets at the moment, and while Raw's duos aren't as prominent, the red brand's division is just as talent rich. The wrestlers are too talented to sit out one of the year's biggest shows. They must be given a spotlight, and the chance to compete for inter-brand bragging rights.

We're deprived of both sets of tag champs, but there are still several options for both sides, albeit not enough for the full 10-on-10. For Raw, we could have The Bar, Gallows and Anderson, Heath Slater and Rhyno, and The Miztourage (provided Bo Dallas' lurgy clears up). For the blue team, there's The New Day, Breezango, Gable and Benjamin, and Zayn and Owens.

It's not a traditional Survivor Series format, but it'd fit right in, and the addition of KO and 'The Underdog From The Underground' would give it a huge jolt of star power, assuming they aren't needed in the 5-on-5.
