There's a good chance that everyone involved in the main show 5-on-5 match came together for a little meeting before Survivor Series. The more traditional, team-based matches aren't the focal point of the long-running Pay-Per-View any longer. That was evidenced by the fact the bout was placed to go on third behind both Semi Finals in the title tournament. Ryback, The Usos and The Lucha Dragons vs. The New Day, 'King' Barrett and Sheamus was clear mid-card fodder. At least, it would have been had the men working the clash not put on such a fine showing. Perhaps all concerned had a discussion before going through the curtain, ensuring themselves that they wouldn't be overlooked. One of the obvious highlights was a spectacular quartet dive from The Lucha Dragons and The Usos onto their opponents at ringside. The move looked incredible, even better because Sin Cara, Kalisto, Jey and Jimmy Uso all landed flush at the same time on their rivals. Adding to the excitement, even Ryback elected to dive from the top rope onto everyone on the floor below. It was this kind of spot that helped make the match stand out, when it easily could have been a dull, throwaway affair.
