Survivor Series 2019 | Thoughts

Hi and welcome to the blog. Survivor Series is now in the books. Here are the match results along with my thoughts. Here we go!

Kick off show Results

Cross branded over the top rope Battle Royal
Winners: Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler (SmackDown)

NXT Cruiserweight Championship Match - Kalisto vs. Akira Tozawa vs. Lio Rush (c)
Winner: AND STILL NXT Cruiserweight Champion: Lio Rush (NXT)

Men's Tag Team Champions
The Viking Raiders (Raw) vs. The New Day (SmackDown) vs. Undisputed Era (NXT)
Winners: The Viking Raiders (Raw)

Main Card Results
Women's Survivor Series Elimination Match Team Raw (Charlotte Flair, Natalya, The Kabuki Warriors & Sarah Logan) vs. Team SmackDown (Sasha Banks, Carmella, Dana Brooke, Lacey Evans & Nikki Cross) vs. Team NXT Rhea Ripley is being booked strongly lately, she won the War Games match at Takeover and here she picked up the win for her brand. Winners: Team NXT

AJ Styles (U.S. Champion) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (Intercontinental Champion) vs. Roderick Strong (North American Champion) In all honesty, this match wasn't as good as I expected it to be. Winner: Roderick Strong (NXT)

NXT Championship Match - Adam Cole (c) vs. Pete Dunne
It's nice to see the NXT title be defended on one of the top PPV's on the WWE calendar.
Winner: AND STILL NXT Champion: Adam Cole (Bay Bay)

Universal Championship  "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt (c) vs. Daniel Bryan 
There was no way Bray was losing here, credit to Bryan for putting up a hell of a fight!
Winner: AND STILL Universal Champion: "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt

Men's Survivor Series Elimination Match Team Raw (Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, Drew McIntyre & Ricochet) vs. Team Smackdown (Roman Reigns, King Corbin, Ali, Shorty G, and Braun Strowman) vs. Team NXT
I think we have found WWE's next breakout star, Keith Lee. He was very good in this match, however,he was defeated by Roman Reigns. Winners: Team SmackDown

WWE Championship Match - Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Rey Mysterio (No holds barred, no DQ) There was no miracle here as the Beast won the match, despite interference from Rey's son. Dominic. Winner: AND STILL WWE Champion: Brock Lesnar

Main Event
Women's Champions: Becky Lynch (Raw) vs. Bayley (SmackDown) vs. Shayna Baszler (NXT) No offence to the ladies involved in this match, I thought this match was kinda boring, I have no idea why this was the main event as there were no surprises.
Winner: Shayna Baszler.

Final Score

NXT 4
SmackDown 2
RAW 1

Great to see NXT win this years Survivor Series. The brands inclusion made this years event so much better. They have to be involved in next years event and in others going forward. Until next time, thanks for reading.
