Ranking Every WWE Survivor Series From Worst To Best

The Good: The Team Authority/Team Cena main event had huge drama even if the twist in the middle reeked (more on that later). Sting's debut for the company was mind blowing for longterm fans, especially those blissfully unaware of how the story between him and Triple H would conclude at the following year's WrestleMania. The Miz and Damien Mizdow winning the Tag Team Titles was a great decision for the hugely over act.

The Bad: Nikki Bella beating AJ Lee in 0:33 was great for the heat, but a disappointment considering what they perhaps could have achieved together. Bray Wyatt's boring battle with Dean Ambrose was by then frustratingly typical form from 'The Eater Of Worlds'.

The Ugly: Adam Rose and his Bunny mascot Vs Slator-Gater (Heath Slater and Titus O'Neil) had no place on any wrestling show, let alone the fourth biggest WWE one of the year. Nor did yet another illogical Big Show turn. He'd been repeatedly reduced to tears just a year earlier - this felt like a fire escape for the company so keen to protect John Cena even when he wasn't booked to be on the losing side.
