I was there and let me tell you people were leaving left and right. Backlash had fans chanting “beat the traffic” whereas we in Boston just do it. NOBODY wanted to see that match and like we all thought it was terrible. Shame on wwe
The only real good bit of undertaker's ceremony was when he did his kneeling pose they put a hologram of Paul bearer in front of him and played his catchphrase. Really heartwarming stuff
The other thing about 2008's Survivors Series that sucked was that the show was built around the return of John Cena with many documentary style promos about him. He had only been gone for 3 months yet the show made it seem like he'd been gone for years.
The WWE couldn’t get over their obsession with Cena. Similar to 2010, the championship is between Randy Orton and Nexus leader Wade Barrett but yet the entire thing has to strictly be about Cena
2011 was the same. Announcing vs Rock at WM28 right after WM27 hurt everyone. Cena's character in 2011 was: "Ok. I'm just doing stuff till Rock stops filming movies so I just fued with whoever I can for the title or other things and WWE will make sure to ignore or bury anyone accidently getting over like CM Punk and Zack Ryder."
@@Ruben-to9yk punk wasn’t buried. he just wasn’t the guy simple. and zack’s burial had nothing to do with cena or the rock , wwe didn’t like that ryder got himself over when they had no plans for him. so they put him near cena to give cena some babyface rub and tosses him aside when he cena moved on
I completely see why Adam hates how The Undertaker Ceramony was handled due to the pandemic, but I absolutely loved it. I thought it was very fitting for The Undertaker especially since he ended up getting his true sendoff at the Hall of Fame plus The Paul Bearer moment was truly one of the most emotional moments in WWE in the past decade.
I agree. Even though fans couldn’t be there because of the circumstances WWE were in, I loved the farewell ceremony. That Paul Bearer moment and the lightning rod cover of his theme are things I will never forget.
Most of that 2013 crowd, myself included, were on the concourse watching the New England Patriots come back from 24 points down to beat the Denver Broncos. We recognized Survivor Series ‘13 for the pile of Dog poo it was but we weren’t leaving because goddamnit we paid money to be there. So, yeah.
Fun fact about entry #9, Sheamus was so hated at this point that him cashing in on Roman and stealing the belt from him for 24 glorious hours made the Roman Reigns experiment actually work the way WWE wanted it too. Then the Tator Totts promo happened and it went back to the status quo.
I adored the 1999 survivor series but I only got into wrestling that year as an 8 year old kid and had that PPV on VHS and watched it over SO many times. Nostalgia will make you love weird things
I can’t believe Adam predicted The Rock pooping in a bag and throwing it at Roman. I have no idea how he knew that’s exactly what Triple H would do but he was spot on. Booking genius.
Survivor Series last night was the first time I watched one of these weird post-thanksgiving traditions in full and live and it was really good. I felt like some matches underwhelmed (Ronda and Shotzi especially) but man that Men’s WarGames match was great and kept me asking what the hell would happen with Sami and Kevin. I didn’t even mind that Cena did a poopoo in the ring and left with no explanation it was that exciting
Sidenote: 1990's gimmick I think could work. Say if one Survivor Series ended in a Draw [Smackdown 3 - 3 Raw] have the Survivors of those matches have one more Tie Breaker Match. I think... this is why I don't book Wrestling.
So the winners of all the matches? Because there's only two Survivor Series-style matches in traditional Raw vs Smackdown stuff... the men and the women.
Seriously though, the Undertaker's debut match in 1990 was actually really good. It was a star-studded match even aside from Taker's appearance, with Dusty Rhodes and the Hart Foundation (and also Koko B. Ware was there) taking on Ted DiBiase and Rhythm & Blues (the Honky Tonk Man and Greg Valentine), and while much of the action was about as outdated as late-80s/early-90s wrestling would be, the booking of how they managed to eliminate Taker (so he doesn't single-handedly dominate the entire match) without making him look weak was clever, and the final sequence between the Hitman and the Million Dollar Man was, as you'd expect, great stuff. You don't have to watch the entire show if you're not interested in watching Hogan jerking off over the audience, but you should at least watch that match beyond just Taker's first ever entrance.
I'm surprised 1990 is on the list, it's one of my favorites. When I was younger I loved warrior and Hogan,Tito Santana has a great performance throughout the night, and yes of course the debut of the Deadman.
I was at Survivor Series 2021 so the show will always be better to me than most. Being there live makes the experience a lot better than it would be watching it home.
I was also there Joe and completely agree. Match quality on the night was solid. People’s issue with the show seem to be based off a battle royal and egg which is a very small minor part of the 3 and a half hour show. Okay The Rock wasn’t there. A video message would have been nice but it’s not essential. I believe it is harsh 2021 is on this list.
I'll third being there live. The weird stuff on the show sucked but had a lot of fun with my friends plus the opener and main were really good . Liked usos vs rkbro and the women's ss match was a nice showcase for Bianca. Maybe I'd feel differently watching at home instead but I was there. Yes I can always have fun at a show live but I didn't hate the entire show like people seem to have .
@@firefrank914 exactly you get it being there with the live audience in partaking in chance and applause it really adds to the experience. You aren’t simply thinking about match quality and even then most of the stuff on the card is really good lol the only crappy thing was the battle Royal and being there I didn’t pay it much mind
Is anyone else bothered that between both of these lists about the 10 worst and best survivor series pay-per-views, 1997 wasn't even mentioned either one of them. Is the screw job not important anymore??! /S
I'm surprised they never mentioned 2018. That was an awful PPV that only had RAW clean sweeping Smackdown with them trying to make the kickoff non canon. Good matches but RAW dominating ruined it.
As much as I hated the Undertaker farewell BS and the Lana stuff back in 2020, I actually do look back at the PPV for the Drew vs Roman match. (It’s actually one of my favorite matches during the Thunderdome Era) I think people forget that you had Drew at his peak vs Roman’s new Tribal Chief character that created a much different vibe compared to their 2019 matches. At that time you had the 2 top stars going at it with no clear “number 1” guy until Roman started his historic reign in 2021.
I always thought the Thunderdome was making the best of the bad situation WWE was in. Was it as good as a real crowd? God no. But it was definitely better than the Performance Center shows before.
The 2020 Men's Survivor Series Match continues to baffle me. Every member of Team RAW were at each other's throats, while SmackDown! Had much more cohesion. And yet, RAW won with a clean sweep. Baffling. But that's WWE booking.
While Survivor Series 2022 War Games was pretty ace overall, beginning to sense a strange trend with these paperview matches as of late. Why have all the Smackdown Women’s Championship matches been the worst matches on their respective cards? Shayna vs Liv sucked, Liv vs Rousey was underwhelming af, and Rousey vs Shotzi was a complete snooze. Why does that keep happening? Anyway, the Women’s Wargames was very solid, even if I will only remember Iyo Sky’s hilarious botch, Bálor Styles was very solid, the US Triple Threat was way better than I though it would be, boo the selfie man, and unsurprisingly the Men’s match was the best of the night, storytelling extraordinaire. Please, Ronda, drop the title or stop having slogs! 8/10 PPV
@@iangray1980 Team Legends vs The Spirit Squad, Batista vs booker t and Team Cena vs Team Big Show are all terrible. Along with the fact the booking was bad ( like turning the team dx vs rated rko into a squash comedy when it could of been great) and the fact the show was an after thought for December to dismember which was Adams big reason 1991 sucked, i donno i think its petty bad.
@@iangray1980 06 was far worse than 07 imo, only Good/somewhat decent matches on the 06 card were Benoit vs Chavo for the US title, Lita vs Mickie James & Taker/Kennedy. 07 Both Title matches were Good and the 5 on 4 elimination tag match was great as well… Punk vs Miz vs Morrison was Ok but The Divas elimination match and Hornswoggle/Khali were both Ass

Looks like fourth times the charm for Boston at Survivor Series, given that all three prior Survivor Series events that happened at Boston was on this list (1993, 2008, and 2013) The worst Survivor Series for me is either 2015 or 2020. The former because it was unremarkable and nothing memorable (maybe outside of Sheamus cash-in) and the latter because of the real-life circumstances. But both were because of WWE falling flat on their advertising on The Undertaker's anniversary at WWE (even though The Rocky from last year was way worse)
Thankfully 2022 will not supplant anything on this list. It was pretty damn good. Women's war games was excellent and IMO in terms of pure wrestling, better than the men's. Aj/balor was fine for a piss break match about a nothing fued, shotsi/rousey was dreadful but short, the triple threat was wonderful with a genuinely funny ending and the men's war games was a great bit of storytelling that really helped keep a kind of plodding match interesting throughout. Overall well above average.
Guess i'm still the only one that enjoys 1993, if only for the start of the Owen heel turn and that first match with Razor, 123kid, Jannetty and Savage vs Adam Bomb, IRS, Rick Martel and Diesel.
You can't blame the pandemic for a PPV being bad. We can't help that. But if you're going to talk about shows being bad during the pandemic. Atleast talk about the matches or segments. I mean, we get it no crowds. But the show's should be about the matches themselves.
I hated 2018. Lesnar vs Bryan was the only saving grace. Wwe treated it like raw completely swept smackdown but smackdown got a win on the pre-show, which doesn’t count for some reason. I don’t like Ronda Rousey or Charlotte so that match was meh. Rollins vs nakamura was decent but not super awesome, oh yeah Drake Maverick pissed himself and Enzo being Enzo in the bar vs aop match
What about The Shield vs. The New Day that was was actually amazing and along with Lesnar vs. Bryan one of the only fantastic matches on Survivor Series 2018
@@adityamaharaj3262 shield vs new day was 2017. Woods and big e were on the pre show as part of team smackdown with usos, gallows and Anderson, sanity and primo and epico. They took on revival, b team, gable and Roode, lucha house party and ascension
What about 1992? The entire Survivor Series there was only one Survivor Series match. And even then, it was a tag team match where if one of the tag team's members is eliminated, their partner is eliminated as well. Survivor Series only comes once a year, so basically, we were given only ONE Survivor Series match for the entire year. And that main event with the whole Randy Savage and Mr. Perfect (who subbed for Warrior) vs. Razor Ramon and Ric Flair was ridiculously bad. I'd watch 1993 over 1992 in a heartbeat.
What are you talking about? It was pretty solid. Not amazing, but not bad by any stretch. The men’s war games match was a little slow until the end and the Ronda match was bad but everything else was good-to-great
Say what you want, I will ALWAYS rewatch the '93 Survivor Series. Had a whole bunch of matches that started up the building for WrestleMania 10. And it's literally the one of the earliest times I saw The Undertaker growing up as a wrestling fan ^^ I love it
I liked Survivor Series '91 for the opening elimination match and for the one with the Rockers and Nasty Boys where the Rockers' break-up began. The 'Taker vs. Hogan match was super slow, but as Adam says, a surprising win for 'Taker and a strong one even if 'Taker did have to pull his tombstone to the point where it looked too fake. 'Taker told the story of Hogan warning him before the match to be careful with the tombstone, fair enough, 'Taker had actually injured Koko B. Ware with the tombstone back at the previous Survivor Series and against Jimmy Snuka at WrestleMania VII it certainly appeared that Jimmy's head hit the mat hard when he was tombstoned. 'Taker says that even with his overly careful tombstone, Hogan complained that 'Taker had hurt his neck. But Survivor Series '94 I really disagree with being here. I thought the three elimination matches were very good, yes even the clown match. Thought Bret and Bob put on a good match with the help of Owen, Bulldog, Stu and Helen. 'Taker vs. Yoko wasn't great, I thought the match they had back at the Rumble where Yoko beat 'Taker with the help of about ten other wrestlers was good and I liked the idea of a revenge casket match. I think this match was a bit repetitive and Chuck Norris guarding the ring, confronting Bundy and others then kicking Jeff Jarrett down and out didn't add much to the match, neither did I.R.S slipping past Norris by going through the crowd then knocking 'Taker out with a sleeper. I did like the last minute where 'Taker hit Yoko with a series of big moves and I liked how cleanly big Yoko fell through the ropes and into the casket when 'Taker hit a running big boot,
I big NOPE on SS 90. You had to live through that time to really appreciate it. Stop centering the whole PPV on the Gobbley Gooker segment. At the time, the concept of the final survivors was cool; everyone wanted to know who the mystery partner was. Plus a cool Million Dollar Man, Bret Hart mini-match, all the Warriors in one team. The wrestling is not the greatest, but just watching team compositions in those early days was cool, especially with the team names.
People forget wwe really said "People don't like Daniel Bryan, they just like chanting yes. Lets give it to the Big Show, that'll work."
I hope Vince and his cronies never get their suspicious white powder-stained hands on creative again
Honestly to be fair that has happened before lol. Look at Hager and we the people
It actually did work in the build-up to that Orton vs Big Show match.
@@matthewrock4725 I doubt a random wrestler could have that gimmick and would automatically get over.

You can't blame the pandemic for a PPV being bad. We can't help that. But if you're going to talk about shows being bad during the pandemic. Atleast talk about the matches or segments. I mean, we get it no crowds. But the show's should be about the matches themselves.
Paak the car in the yaad 🤣🤣
I hated 2018. Lesnar vs Bryan was the only saving grace. Wwe treated it like raw completely swept smackdown but smackdown got a win on the pre-show, which doesn’t count for some reason. I don’t like Ronda Rousey or Charlotte so that match was meh. Rollins vs nakamura was decent but not super awesome, oh yeah Drake Maverick pissed himself and Enzo being Enzo in the bar vs aop match
What about The Shield vs. The New Day that was was actually amazing and along with Lesnar vs. Bryan one of the only fantastic matches on Survivor Series 2018
@@adityamaharaj3262 shield vs new day was 2017. Woods and big e were on the pre show as part of team smackdown with usos, gallows and Anderson, sanity and primo and epico. They took on revival, b team, gable and Roode, lucha house party and ascension
@@hamishaustin4854 true I forgot that was 2017 lol
What I want to know how the hell did wwe get Pizza Hut in the Barclays Center when Brooklyn doesn't even have a pizza hut
For 1993, wrestlers compete and put their titles from a different company on the line and people don’t give a crap. Where have I seen this before 🧐
94 is one of my favorites. 😂😂😂
Had to stop the vid to comment....
THE F*** WAS THAT INTRO, ADAM?!?
A Jaws reference Adam? Finger on the pulse of pop culture with a 47 year old movie.
Man Detroit really got the short end of the stick when it comes to Survivor Series
2015 tournament bracket was fire though even though it was predictable because the star power is huge
Oh I get it, you're joking. 😆😆😆😆😆
The real winner of the 2021 Survivor Series is Product Placement Marketing
Of course all 3 other Survivor Series that were in Boston ended up on the list lmao😂
I actually, unironically, support the Bob Holly push.
I’m surprised 2006 and 2010 wasn’t on here
What about 1992? The entire Survivor Series there was only one Survivor Series match. And even then, it was a tag team match where if one of the tag team's members is eliminated, their partner is eliminated as well. Survivor Series only comes once a year, so basically, we were given only ONE Survivor Series match for the entire year. And that main event with the whole Randy Savage and Mr. Perfect (who subbed for Warrior) vs. Razor Ramon and Ric Flair was ridiculously bad. I'd watch 1993 over 1992 in a heartbeat.
Take 2 was the accurate take outside of the Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn show segments
What are you talking about? It was pretty solid. Not amazing, but not bad by any stretch. The men’s war games match was a little slow until the end and the Ronda match was bad but everything else was good-to-great
Well that's the obligatory in wwe
No 1997? Automatic DQ
Survivor Series was good this year, WarGames was fun and the US title triple threat was a surprise MOTN for me
Yeah so WarGames was fine overall, I just realized I'm so sick of the Bloodline stuff but I still have at least another four months of it to deal with
The storyline has ran it's course
I think 2006 has to be a honorable mention.
It’s funny you forgot New day vs profits….. I wonder why 🤔
Hey can Adam The Undertaker did it at Survivor Series 1990 the first one on this list maybe that's another reason it was bad
Say what you want, I will ALWAYS rewatch the '93 Survivor Series. Had a whole bunch of matches that started up the building for WrestleMania 10. And it's literally the one of the earliest times I saw The Undertaker growing up as a wrestling fan ^^ I love it
But it was unexpected of the ppv.
Yaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyuy….Boston, that’s where we’re from.
I liked Survivor Series '91 for the opening elimination match and for the one with the Rockers and Nasty Boys where the Rockers' break-up began. The 'Taker vs. Hogan match was super slow, but as Adam says, a surprising win for 'Taker and a strong one even if 'Taker did have to pull his tombstone to the point where it looked too fake. 'Taker told the story of Hogan warning him before the match to be careful with the tombstone, fair enough, 'Taker had actually injured Koko B. Ware with the tombstone back at the previous Survivor Series and against Jimmy Snuka at WrestleMania VII it certainly appeared that Jimmy's head hit the mat hard when he was tombstoned. 'Taker says that even with his overly careful tombstone, Hogan complained that 'Taker had hurt his neck.
But Survivor Series '94 I really disagree with being here. I thought the three elimination matches were very good, yes even the clown match. Thought Bret and Bob put on a good match with the help of Owen, Bulldog, Stu and Helen. 'Taker vs. Yoko wasn't great, I thought the match they had back at the Rumble where Yoko beat 'Taker with the help of about ten other wrestlers was good and I liked the idea of a revenge casket match. I think this match was a bit repetitive and Chuck Norris guarding the ring, confronting Bundy and others then kicking Jeff Jarrett down and out didn't add much to the match, neither did I.R.S slipping past Norris by going through the crowd then knocking 'Taker out with a sleeper. I did like the last minute where 'Taker hit Yoko with a series of big moves and I liked how cleanly big Yoko fell through the ropes and into the casket when 'Taker hit a running big boot,
Why 2008?
I big NOPE on SS 90. You had to live through that time to really appreciate it. Stop centering the whole PPV on the Gobbley Gooker segment. At the time, the concept of the final survivors was cool; everyone wanted to know who the mystery partner was. Plus a cool Million Dollar Man, Bret Hart mini-match, all the Warriors in one team. The wrestling is not the greatest, but just watching team compositions in those early days was cool, especially with the team names.
1990 was my favorite one. Fail.
