Ranking Every Raw Vs SmackDown WWE Survivor Series Match From Worst To Best

5. The Usos Vs The Bar (2017)

The words 'Superkick Party' were uttered in a WWE match for perhaps the first time as The Usos lowered the boom on The Bar after yet another breathless sh*tkicking exchange. AEW was a years away from inception at the time, but The Young Bucks' brand of action didn't even look necessary here.

On a night where doubles conversation had been dominated by The Shield and The New Day, Jimmy, Jey, Sheamus and Cesaro outperformed their tag team rivals in a blinding battle that wouldn't be remiss if revisited for WrestleMania in a brighter future for the four.

When Sheamus and Cesaro ended The New Day's record-breaking tag team title run in December 2016, they did so with a breathtaking false tag finish that fooled fans and foes alike. This conclusion may have been even better. Jimmy simultaneously scoring with a mid-air tag and a plancha to 'The Swiss Superman' to unlock Jey for the match-winning splash was the type of beautiful spot construction virtually non-existent on the weekly show. As a supercard shut-down, it'll deservedly live longer in the memory.
