Every WWE Survivor Series Ranked - From Worst To Best
12. 1990
An event that will forever be remember for the debut of The Undertaker (not forgetting the debut of the Gobbledy-Gooker). The 1990 Survivor Series was a great show - provided you aren't too interested in genuinely excellent wrestling. It was an elimination match heavy show, with the main event seeing all of the survivors from the previous matches come together in one grand finale.
Whilst it was a good way of freshening up the elimination match formula, the reality was that the finale existed as a way to end the show with both Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior standing tall. Hogan had 'passed the torch' to Warrior earlier in the year at WrestleMania VI, but it quickly became apparent that the torch didn't give anything other than light.
Not much to write home about between the ropes, but the debut of The Undertaker and the establishing of Sgt. Slaughter as an evil heel are worth the entrance fee alone.
11. 2000
One calendar year after being the victim of a hit and run, Stone Cold Steve Austin found himself the centre of attention at Survivor Series once more, as the Texas Rattlesnake took on Triple H in a No Disqualification match to close out the show. The match ended in a no contest after Austin dropped a car (seemingly containing Triple H) from a forklift. The Attitude Era!
Kurt Angle defended the WWF Championship against The Undertaker in a great match, two legendary performers whose chemistry if often overlooked in the pantheon of 'workers with great chemistry'. Elsewhere, The Rock defeated Rikishi in a match with decidedly less chemistry - ironic considering the two are related.
The usual thrown-together elimination matches also took place, as well as a singles match that saw Kane defeat Chris Jericho in their epic-coffee centred feud.
