This Sunday WWE will present the last of its ‘Big 4’ PPVs. Survivor Series is the second longest running PPV in WWE after Wrestlemania and this Sunday it sure looks like it’s going to be worse than WrestleMania 29. I wish to be proven wrong.
The match card involves feuds with minimal or unconvincing storylines to begin with. It is hard to tell what the company was thinking when it chose to do so little for one of its mainstay Pay Per Views.
Will Cena lose his championship in his hometown? Has the Big Show-Randy Orton storyline been spellbinding? Are the Divas going to do some earth shattering moves in their traditional Survivor Series Tag Match? Is the Miz going to lose to Kofi after he just gained some momentum when he turned heel and with a movie soon coming up?
The answer undoubtedly, one hundred percent is NO.
Now that all this is very much out in the open, the other two matches which can at least be entertaining despite the fact that they don’t have interesting storylines to support them are CM Punk and Daniel Bryan (The modern day Mega Powers) versus Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. Bray Wyatt will of course be there to tilt the odds into his team’s favor.
The other match, also a tag match, is another traditional Survivor Series Tag match with The Shield and The Real Americans facing The Usos, Rhodes Brothers and Rey Mysterio. So what happens to Mysterio after this match and PPV is done with? Who knows? Maybe not even the WWE. The Usos and The Rhodes Brothers will still remain a team, though. But this Monday we already saw a sample of what we might be getting at Survivor Series. After the main event proved to be high on entertainment, it has already set a huge bar for Sunday.
In all possibility, the heel team might just pick up the win as the face team came out on top this Monday.
But maybe just like the Raw following WrestleMania 29 was spectacular, maybe the Raw following Survivor Series might get its own mark out moments. Seems like wishful thinking but what’s the harm? All the Big Four PPVs have one thing in common apart from being consistent since the times of yore – they do put attention on the night following the culmination of any of the four PPVs. And that might just help Raw in raking the ratings.
I do, wholeheartedly, hope something really cool happens and I hope that I am wrong about this PPV being totally predictable.
