Ranking Every WWE Survivor Series From Worst To Best
10. 1988
The Good: A f*cking fantastic tag team Survivor Series match was arguably better than the version the prior year, save perhaps for a clunky and ill-executed double turn at the end. The stars on this show were megastars. Ultimate Warrior, Jake Roberts and Andre The Giant illuminated the undercard whilst Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage's simmering tensions again threatened to boil over at the climax of their main event win.
The Bad: With only four contests on the entire show, everything was given time when only the elimination tag and headliner deserved it. The middling midcard matches could and would have been smoother with five to seven minutes less on each.
The Ugly: A number of late substitutions resulted in jobbers taking unfamiliar pay-per-view positions. Jim Brunzell, Sam Houston, Scott Casey and (though to a lesser extent) The Conquistadors didn't really belong on this show. There have been worse card-fillers since, but these in particular looked levels below some of the figurative and literal giants they stood alongside.
