WWE Survivor Series 2016 Eliminations - From Worst To Best

23. Naomi

This didn't really make much sense. Many assumed Nia Jax would get the token countout elimination spot in order to protect her, but it would end up being Naomi in that position, the former Funkadactyl failing to meet the count after Jax's violence.

This made little sense. Does Naomi need to be protected to this degree? Why didn't any of the SmackDown Live team come over to try and help her beat the count? Having Naomi eliminated via countout in this manner just made everyone on her side look like fools.

22. The Hype Bros

Speaking of being protected, Mojo Rawley defied the odds by managing to avoid being the member of the Hype Bros to be pinned. After doing his thing with Epico Rawley tagged out to Zack Ryder, Long Island Iced Z producing a flurry of offence before succumbing to Gallows, Anderson and the Magic Killer.

It may be a stretch to call Zack Ryder 'the mighty', but oh how the mighty have fallen. Seven months ago Zack Ryder was pushing The Miz off of a ladder and claiming his first Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 32. At Survivor Series 2016 he was the first non-gimmicky elimination in a match and nobody in the crowd seemed to care.
