Ranking Every WWE Survivor Series From Worst To Best

12. 2009

Survivor Series
WWE

The Good: The matching main events over the two top titles were unique solution to a month without any major feuds. Both matches were hugely enjoyable too, with The Undertaker’s win over Jeri-Show and John Cena’s over D-Generation-X only enhancing the stature of both Champions. Kofi Kingston looked like a world-beater as the sole survivor in his team’s match against a side led by Randy Orton. His push faded fast, but it appeared on the night at least as if a new star was born.

The Bad: Team Miz Vs Team Morrison had a dull middle, but the company could at least be commended on the finish. Two of the three Survivors went on to relatively quick success - The Miz and Sheamus would be WWE Champion within 12 months. It's only taken third man Drew McIntyre 10 years to catch up.

The Ugly: Nothing overtly offended on the show at all. Even the typically token gesture women's match was given time and - thankfully - a series of eliminations rather than one patronising pin.
