WWE Survivor Series 2016: 10 Awesome Moments
6. KO & AJ Styles Kick Things Off
Dream matches come thick and fast in pro wrestling nowadays, there isn't much regular WWE fans haven't seen by this point. One combination that hasn't been wheeled out time and time again is AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens, a fact which made their short showdown at Survivor Series all the more satisfying.
Starting out the main Team Raw vs. Team SmackDown elimination match, AJ and KO had numerous other pieces of interaction throughout. As the wrestlers stood face-to-face right at the beginning, the commentators made sure to note that this was effectively a chance to secure bragging rights for either the WWE World or Universal Champion.
There's little doubt Styles vs. Owens is the kind of match that people would love to see happen somewhere down the road. Hilariously, KO told AJ his hair looked stupid as he stood on the ring apron later. Surely, promos between both men during an outright feud would be superb.
Having the top champs on Raw and SmackDown start proceedings was smart. Although both playing heel, AJ and Owens command respect from the core fan base.
