RIP: Survivor Series
1987-2010.
McMahon said that the Survivor Series is obsolete, and will be rebranded! RIP one of the original four PPVs. You will be missed. |
<font color=goldenrod>Wow. It was much better when the entire show was focused on the Survivor Series matches, but still...fucking gay.</font>
|
To be completely honest, Survivour Series is kinda useless. The main eventers are in title match so you're left with upper-mid card guys in the traditional match up. I'd LOVE War Games to come back though.
|
<font color=goldenrod>Seriously, how long before Summerslam gets axed as well?</font>
|
Get the fuck out
|
I'm fine with it. The traditional matches always look awesome on paper, but never seem to deliver for me. I would have enjoyed the tag matches a lot more if there was something on the line (EX: Survivors get a title match or something). Also, it always bothered me (nit-picking here) that partners NEVER broke up pinfall attempts for their teammates. But, whatever.
My favorite Survivor Series match was Team Austin vs. Team Bischoff :y: Awesome match! But, so long Survivor Series... |
why am I not surprised at this news?

I noticed that the 1997-2008 Survivor Series PPVs weren't released with the boxset. Is it because they were TV-14 and now with the current audience, they don't wanna sell them?

God dammit. Now in place of Survivor Series we're gonna have some lame ass new WWE PPV title like "Thanksgiving Trouble" or "McMahon's Family Variety Hour."
Seriously, whoever has been naming the PPVs needs to be fired. (traditional SS matches were overdone, and more often than not, simply didn't make sense partner-wise) TOVO Fact: Tovo absolutely HATES it when the toilet paper is rolled under. Over people. You have it rolled OVER! |
This saddens me as it was 1 of my favorite PPV's. First KOTR, and now this. :(
|
I guess I agree with the move. If they aren't gonna do it right anymore, might as well not do it at all.
|
Well they are polling on WWE.com to see what we want. Looks like a bunch of WCW gimmicks. I would be happy with a Battle Bowl, that would be interesting in WWE.

Can't believe Survivor Series is gone. :( I don't think SummerSlam will go though and RR and Mania can't go. |

I doubt they will get rid of the Rumble as it is the best PPV behind Mania.
You know what they need? The LETHAL LOTTERY. |
Its just gonna be renamed 'Elimination tag team matches'.(just wait and see!)

Lethal Lottery to draw the random teams. The Survivors of the matches go on to a Battle Royal to determine a #1 contender for any title they wish.
|
Coleborg: "Well King, what's gonna happen this Sunday at 5 Random Faces vs 5 Random Heels when John Cena, Kung FuNaki, Christian, Santino, and Chris Masters take on "The Animal" Batista, Tyler Reks, Jack Swagger, Chavo Guerrero, and Carlito?"
Yeah TL, you're right. |
Survivor Series could come back. Ya never know. They got rid of the I.C. title for a while too, and brought it back.

Wrestlemania will be the next to go.
It's really strange how drastically WWE has changed over the last five years. :( |

I do love the Lethal Lottery and Battle Bowl. Hopefully this makes its return, but Vince seems to want to get completely away from WCW gimmicks.

Now we can all look forward to a PPV called something like "WWE Tag Team Tension" where every match is a Tag Team Match. But seriously, this sortof sucks. :-\ |
Bragging Rights is a much better concept.
|
The best part about all of this is how all of the PPVs of the last quarter of 2009 had gone up in buyrates, except Survivor Series which was down 25%, and the reason they think this is, is that the SS concept is outdated and "obsolete".
It's not like the downright laughable booking (see: Cena/HBK/HHH) was the reason for the shit buyrate or anything, right? Ignorance at it's finest right there, well played Vince. |

Fuck :( Survivor Series matches rock
|
Get rid of Wrestlemania too, while you're on it.
|
If only vince would've listened to the fans for a change and give us the old, traditional Survivor series format back
|
Vince better not touch the Rumble.
Or SummerSlam for that matter. I KNOW he wouldn't touch Mania. He's senile, not retarded. |
WWE has a new survey up asking about what type of PPVs you would be interested in: http://www.wweresearch.com/se.ashx?s=0B8801401E2BC294
Including King of the Ring ("Tournament Event"), Battle Bowl, and War Games. |
