Thanks for the predictions, I'm hoping to have the show up some time today....as a heads up I'm thinking of introducing a secondary lower-tier type of Championship for the guys lower down the totem pole to compete for....I know I have the Intercontinental Title, but I really want to keep that for the upper echelon of the mid card.....the guys looking to step up to the main event and the main eventers that aren't really going to be winning the big one any time soon.....I'm thinking European or Television Title level....would people be interested in a secondary title? If so I may introduce a PPV prediction contest where the winner gets to decide either both the title and the first title holder, or title for first place and second place gets to choose the title holder....I don't really know yet, I've never really held a contest because I've always had a clear plan in my head of where I want to go and how I want to get there, so the details are sketchy yet....but I'm sure I can come up with something

Beejus · October 7, 2017

I personally never cared for a "WWF TV title", but that's probably just me. I'm all cool with you bringing in the Euro belt.

Hart-ywood Blonds - I just can't really see them being blacked out, I think this is where the egos will collide in the Kliq and they make their big split.

Sid/Ahmed/Buldog/Scott Steiner - Scott is going to make the difference, as we start on a run toward Steiner vs. Steiner for WrestleMania.

Jericho/Mero/Bart/Candido - Nice win for the white meat babyfaces.

Flock

Nation of Domination - Oh man, is Rocky going to turn on everyone INCLUDING his father to join the Nation and become The Rock?!

Jerry Lawler - Really, aside from commentary, there's nothing you can do with an aging Lawler. I'm feeling like Justin may just disappear for awhile.

Kane - Their big first encounter being at Survivor Series instead of WrestleMania makes me figure we are going with Kane winning here and then Taker getting revenge at Mania.

Week 3 November, 1996

Milwaukee County Stadium

ATT: 53,000

Buy: 1.28

It's a night all about Survival tonight, which is highlighted immediately by the fact that our commentary team for the evening consists of just Vince McMahon and Jim Ross.....because Jerry Lawler is in action tonight against Justin Credible.....and should he lose the match, he loses his slot at the Raw announce table. McMahon and Ross briefly talk about that, wishing Lawler all the best and saying that they hope to see him sat right here tomorrow night.....before they run down the rest of the card, including the blockbuster main event.....which see's the KLiQ fighting for their very future, and the team of Steve Austin, Brian Pillman and The Hart Brothers fighting for their Championship future.....

Rating: N/A

http://i.imgur.com/k6DGuKj.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/2Kz9qfQ.jpg

It's time for our first match of the evening.....and you can't open up the Survivor Series event with anything less than a traditional Survivor Series match.....and the Million Dollar Corporation are out first, with Ted DiBiase leading his troops down the aisle, there they wait in the ring for their opponents. Psycho Sid, Ahmed Johnson and The British Bulldog make their way out, but come to a stop at the top of the entrance way. DiBiase takes a microphone and asks the trio where there partner is, as the rest of the Corporation stand laughing behind him.....before Rich Steiner finally takes the microphone.....

"......see this is why you should always bank on the Corporation.....because when you're rich, you only have the best....the best food, the best drinks.....the best partners.....and ain't no one richer, than Rich Steiner and the Million Dollar Corporation.....so why don't you three punks get down here, so we can kick your butts......"

....::::!!!!SIRENS!!!!::::....

.....suddenly sirens begin blaring through the arena, before some unfamiliar music begins to play......and an unfamiliar video plays on the video screen.......

.....and a figure comes walking out from the back, coming to a halt beside his partners and staring a hole through Rich Steiner......

......Jim Ross is going crazy....he says that the man looks very different....but unless his eyes are deceiving him, that is Scott Steiner.....

.....and Scott does look very different....with his dark hair and beard bleached blonde....gone is the wrestling singlet, instead Scotty is wearing a pair black 3/4 length trunks.....and every muscle in his large body looks ready to burst through his skin......in short, this ain't ya Daddy's Scott Steiner.....but from the way the women in the audience are reacting, he may well be your new Daddy by the time the night is over. He points at his sellout brother, before screaming something frankly unbroadcastable.......then charges down the aisle way ready to fight, with his partners close on his heels.....

Scotty, Sid, Ahmed and the Bulldog all his the ring at the same time, and fly straight for their opponents....Sid makes a beeline for Jarrett, while Ahmed and Davey start hammering into Southern Justice....Rich Steiner however, who looked like a deer caught in the headlights the second his brother walked out is having none of it, and bails to the outside to escape the rampaging beast that is Scott Steiner. Scotty gives chase but the Intercontinental Champion manages to keep out of his grasp....frustrated, Scott finally takes out some of his anger on Dennis Knight, levelling him with a huge Steinerline, before picking the big man up, placing him dropping him in a seated position on the turnbuckles.....and delivers a top rope Frankensteiner.....and just like that, the Corporation are one man down......

Eliminated: Dennis Knight

Scott drops to the mat and churns out 10 push up, staring at his brother the whole time, before inviting him into the ring. Rich slowly begins to climb through the ropes......but it's all a delaying tactic so that Mark Canterbury can ambush Scott. The former Henry Godwinn goes to work on Steiner....and only when Scott is down and hurt does Rich Steiner get in on the action. Scott takes a prolonged beating from the Million Dollar Team, but he's finally able to tag out to the Bulldog, who hits the ring and dismantles the three remaining Corporation members with running clotheslines.

Jeff Jarrett is the legal man, and he takes a lot of punishment before tagging out to Canterbury, who tries to match strength with Davey Boy.....it doesn't go well however, as Bulldog overpowers him at every turn, until finally the Corporation have to resort to some underhand tactics.....because Canterbury whips Davey into the ropes......where Jarrett hits him with a knee to the kidneys.....as Rich Steiner comes flying into him with a top rope Bulldog to the staggering Davey Boy. Canterbury picks the former Intercontinental Champion up and drops him with the Inverted DDT to even up the sides.....

Eliminated: The British Bulldog

Canterbury is stood celebrating the fact that's he's just pinned a former two time Intercontinental Champion.....which is why he doesn't see his team mates frantically motioning for him to turn around......so it comes as a bit of a shock when he does finally turn, that he finds himself face to face with big Sid.....who kicks him in the gut....and in an impressive show of strength, Powerbombs the former Pig Farmer, to give the man advantage back to his team....

Eliminated: Mark Canterbury

Jarrett gets back into the action and attacks Sid, but Sid manages to fight back and goes to work beating on the man who cost him the WWF Championship last month....Jarrett finally tags out to Steiner, who fares a little better....and eventually tosses Sid to the outside. DiBiase and Steiner keep the official distracted long enough for Jarrett to sneak around ringside and smash Sid across the back with his guitar.....and when the referee finally turns around, he counts the seven footer out....

Eliminated: Psycho Sid

That just leaves Ahmed Johnson and Scott Steiner against Jeff Jarrett and Rich Steiner.....Ahmed gets into the action and unleashes his usual power game on Jarrett, who's knocked about from pillar to post like a pinball, before Scotty gets back into the match and carries on where Ahmed left off, laying a beat down on Jarrett. Rich blindsides his brother however, and the remaining Million Dollar team start to make Steiner suffer. Rich is much more comfortable now that his brother is down and less able to fight back, throwing insults at him with every blow, telling him that he should have taken Ted DiBiase's deal, he could have been a Champion now like his big brother....instead of a loser, which is what he really is....

.....it was only a matter of time until Scotty clawed his way back into this....and that's exactly what he did after he and Rich ended a rope running sequence with a Steinerline each that leaves the other man down. Both Steiners make it to their respective corners, where Ahmed and Jarrett are waiting.....Double J might be a bi money player since joining up with the Corporation.....but he still can't match strength with Ahmed....and after a swift back and forth, Jarrett is put away with the Pearl River Plunge.

Eliminated: Jeff Jarrett

That just leaves The Intercontinental Champion Rich Steiner alone with Ahmed Johnson and a p####d off Scott Steiner.....seeing where this one is heading and much like he did against Psycho Sid a few weeks ago, Rich Steiner drops to the floor, snatches his title belt up, turns......and walks to the back, shouting that he ".....don't need this.....I got more money than all these morons in here put together.....I'm going home to shine my belt......"

Scott Steiner screams up the aisle, asking his brother if when he sold out to the Million Dollar Man ".....did you sell your balls too? When did you turn into such a little b*tch....." Rich ain't listening though, he's got a gold belt to polish, and Ahmed Johnson and Scott Steiner can only watch him leave as they are handed a count out victory.

Eliminated: Rich Steiner (via Count-Out)

Survivor(s): Scott Steiner and Ahmed Johnson
Rating: B

Next up we have a good old fashioned, pre-taped, pre-match promo package. First of all we go to the Son's of Samoa, where Rocky Maivia is stood beside his Father Rocky Johnson, Rikishi and Kokina.....Maivia says that tonight, he gets to fulfil a childhood dream.....he gets to step in the ring and team up with his idol....his hero....his father......he says that while Faarooq may have only looked up to the accomplishments, Maivia has always looked up to the man behind the accomplishments.....the man who raised him....who made him.....and even at 52 years of age, Rocky Johnson is still twice the man that Faarooq will ever be.

We go to the Nation locker room after that, where Faarooq is surrounded by Kama, Nelson and Scorpio. As usual it's Faarooq that does the talking here, telling Rocky Johnson that the old adage is true, you should never meet your hero's....because they are usually nothing more than a disappointment. He says that while Faarooq was looking at the accomplishments of the past.....he SHOULD have been looking to the accomplishments of the future.....he SHOULD have been focused on the future of the Nation.....and after tonight, that's exactly what he's going to do. Faarooq says that by the time their match is done, Rocky Johnson is going to wish he stayed exactly where he belongs.....in the past, with all the other relics.

Rating: A

VS.

It's time to settle a score that's been raging for some time now....the bad blood between the Son's of Samoa and the Nation of Domination may have started innocently enough, but after weeks and weeks of tainted victories, insults.....and finally family disrespect, things escalated quickly....to the point that Rocky Maivia's 52 year old father has come out of retirement for one night only, to team with his son and finally shut the mouth of Faarooq once and for all. Obviously given his age Johnson's participation within the actual match was going to be limited, with Rikishi, Kokina and Maivia picking up the slack for their side. We saw Kama eliminate Rikishi, before Kokina pulled it even by squashing Kama with the former Banzai Drop, now called the Samoan Splash......before he and Nelson went at it.....and the two mammoth men found themselves fighting on the floor for longer than the allotted ten count, which saw them both eliminated......

That just left Father and Son.....Rocky Johnson and Rocky Maivia against Faarooq and Scorpio. Now Johnson got in on the match.....but not in a good way, because The Nation members spent their time punishing the former Soul Patrol member....with Faarooq taking particular pleasure in this. It all went wrong for Scorpio however, when he attempted to hit a missile dropkick from the top.....because Johnson moved.....then hooked the legs and locked in a Boston Crab....leaving Scorpio no choice but to submit.....

Eliminated: Scorpio

........Faarooq looks horrified at the fact that for once, it's him that's finding himself out-numbered....Maivia is ecstatic about his fathers strong showing and rushes into the ring to raise his arm, before pulling him in close in an embrace........

.........and then dropping him with what looks to be a type of Falling Side Slam........

........even Faarooq looks shocked at that and stares confused at young Maivia.....but that confusion transforms to a look of delight as Rocky slowly raises his arm, fist closed.....in the salute to the Nation of Domination. He picks his father up from the mat and tosses him towards Faarooq, who delivers a devistating Dominator to the former WWF Tag Team Champion, for the one, two, three.....

Eliminated: Rocky Johnson

.....that just leaves Maivia and Faarooq.....and the two men lock eyes for a moment, before the youngster turns to the official and tells him "....I quit...." leaving the referee with little to do but declare Faarooq the sole survivor of the match.

Survivor(s): Faarooq
Rating: B+

After that shocking turn of events the rest of the Nation come running down the aisle.....followed shortly after by Rikishi and Kokina, who look frankly horrified at what they have just witnessed. Kama, Nelson and Scorpio all embrace their newest member, while the Sons of Samoa on the outside are screaming at Maivia, asking him what he is thinking "....that's your Father.....your blood....."

Maivia looks down at his Dad for a moment, then at the SoS....then unceremoniously rolls Rocky Johnson to the outside with the sole of his boot, before backing up to the centre of the ring, where he falls in line with the rest of the Nation, as they throw their fists in the air in celebration....while Rikishi and Kokina help a heartbroken Rocky Johnson to the back.

Rating: B+

VS.

Following that horrendous betrayal, we go to our first of only two singles contests this evening....but even this match has an element of Survival about it.....because Jerry Lawler is literally fighting for job survival....he loses to Justin Credible tonight, he loses his seat at the Monday Night Raw announce table. Should Credible lose on the other hand, he will have to go back to wearing the mask of Aldo Montoya.....and since Credible's star has never shone brighter than since taking the mask off, I would venture that it's one step backwards that he doesn't want to take.

Whatever the outcome of this one, win or lose, it looks as though Credible is going to be going it alone tonight.....the rest of the KLiQ clearly have bigger concerns on their mind....like whether they will even still be a unit by the end of the evening. Lawler brings the yellow jockstrap with him to ringside, which he hands to Jim Ross for safe keeping. Both Ross and McMahon wish the King luck, telling him that they hope to see him back right here tomorrow night on Raw. When the action gets underway Lawler shows Credible exactly why they call him the King of Memphis....as well as why he took Shawn Michaels to the very limit way back in April.

Considering Jerry's advancing age, as well as Credibles limited abilities, this wasn't a half bad match up....and when Credible DID have the advantage, he showed everyone that while he's no catch as catch can grappler, he can brawl with the best of them.....and while Lawler might be twice the wrestler that Credible is, sometimes it's better to lucky than good.....because when the a King tries to finish this one with the Piledriver, Credible is able to back drop out of it....and the King's feet collide with the head of the official on his way over. With the referee temporarily incapacitated, Credible drops to the outside and reaches under the ring, pulling out what Vince McMahon calls ".....some kind of wooden stick....." but Jim Ross informs us (and Vince) that it is in fact a Singapore Cane....a weapon that made the headlines here in the US of A just two years earlier, when American Citizen Michael Fay was sentenced to four lashes of the cane following his role in the vandalisation of property in Singapore. Tonight Justin Credible uses it to damn near take the Kings head clean off.....smashing the Cane across his head, just as the official comes to his senses and makes the pinfall.......and three seconds later, Monday Night Raw is one announcer short.

Winner: Justin Credible
Rating: C

It's time for another round of pre-taped promo's now ahead of our next match.....first up its the combination of Goldust, Storm, Gunn and Perfect. Goldust tells us that we will never forget his name....Storm vows to continue his reign of terror on Chris Jericho....Gunn is apparently out to impress all the ladies.....so it's only really Mr. Perfect that has anything of substance to say....telling their opponents that they developed the perfect plan....before unveiling the perfect partner.....and after tonight, then maybe.....just maybe.....you'll be looking at the next perfect WWF Champion.

On the face side it's really Jericho who does most of the talking....he's not his usual jovial self mind you....although that's what happens when you get assaulted week after week by a man you classed as your friend. He says that they were caught off guard with the announcement of Mr. Perfect joining the opposite team.....but Jericho says that no matter what Mr. Perfect says, no one....absolutely no one is perfect.....and he'll find that out tonight....as for Lance Storm, Jericho says that they will find out how he fares tonight when Lionheart doesn't have his back turned.

Rating: B+

VS.

It's back to the traditional elimination match ups now.....as the team of Chris Jericho, Marc Mero, Bart Gunn and Chris Candido team up against the combination of Goldust, Billy Gunn, Lance Storm....and the biggest surprise, Mr. Perfect. Perfect is no stranger to making in ring returns at the Survivor Series.....as he returned to action here in 1992, teaming up with the Macho Man Randy Savage to face off against the team of Razor Ramon and Ric Flair, after almost a year and a half of not competing.....he's beaten that record here, because this years Survivor Series marks three years since Perfect was last active inside a WWF ring, with his last televised match being November 7th back in 1993.

While these two teams are quite the mismatch of combinations, there are a few underlying issues between the opponents.....Goldust and Jericho spent a good portion of the first half of this year at each other's throats.....as did Billy and Bart Gunn...(and with Bart finally ditching the denim and cowboy boots tonight for more a traditional tights and wrestling boots look, you could say that the Smoking Gunns have been finally put to rest)....more recently Lance Storm has been dead set on making Chris Jericho pay, for supposedly turning him into the Marty Jannetty of their former team, while Marc Mero (and Sable for that matter) has had more than his fair share of problems with both Billy Gunn and Mr. Perfect.

Speaking of Mero, he was actually the first one eliminated in this match, after taking a knee to the back from Billy Gunn off a Mr. Perfect Irish Whip into the ropes....which was enough to make Mero stagger forward....right into the Perfect-Plex, giving Curt Hennig the *ahem* Perfect return. Bart Gunn was next to go.....and this time it was Billy who picked up the pinfall on his long suffering brother after catching him with the Famouser. That left two against four....quite the odds.....although those odds soon got worse after Goldust took out Chris Candido with the Curtain Call......and suddenly Chris Jericho found himself all alone against four men.

Jericho is a hell of a competitor.....but defeating four opponents single handedly is a big ask, even for him....not that he doesn't give it a good go....in fact he comes a lot closer than his team mates did, almost making Lance Storm quit to the Liontamer....unfortunately when you have three other men on still on the apron, it's very difficult to gain ANY victory without it being broken up.....which is exactly what happens there, as Goldust breaks up the submission attempt.....a small package on Billy Gunn is broken up....so is a pinfall attempt to Goldust after a Lionsault.......and in the end, the numbers are simply too much to overcome, and Lance Storm picks up a huge pinfall over his one time partner with a vicious Piledriver, giving his team a clean sweep at the Survivor Series.

Survivor(s): Goldust, Billy Gunn, Mr. Perfect and Lance Storm

It's promo time....and we head to the back for Dok Hendrix's first assignment of the night, interviewing the quartet of Hawk, Animal, Matt and Jeff.......and by the Look of the Hardys and their Road Warrior face paint, you can call this entire team the Legion of Doom. Dok asks the Hardy's why they have donned the face paint tonight, and in a lacklustre showing (they're not very good on the stick to be fair) they tell Dok that's it's as a show of solidarity.....they say Raven has his "family", well tonight, Hawk, Animal, Matt and Jeff are working as one....as a unit....as the Legion of Doom.....luckily, what Matt and Jeff lack in mic skills, the Road Warriors more than make up for in intensity.....Animal screams at the camera, with spittle flying, that tonight, they're gonna put Raven and his followers down and out for good.....

"......TELL 'EM HAWK......"

"......WELLLLLLL......WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE TONIGHT.....IS A BIT OF AN OXYMORON.....BIG WORD EH DOK.....SEE RAVEN WALKS AROUND HERE WITH A BIG FLOPPY FROWN ON HIS FACE, HE'S A REAL DEBBIE DOWNER....IN FACT THE ONLY TIME HE'S REALLY HAPPY....IS WHEN HES MISERABLE.....WELL THATS OK....BECAUSE TONIGHT, WE'RE GONNA ROUND THAT FLOCK UP.....AND GIVE THEM MORE MISERY THAN THEY'VE EVER FELT IN THEIR WHOLE STINKING LIVES.....UHHHHH....WHAT A RUSHHHH!!....."

From there we head right into the locker room of the Flock....where Raven is sat with his group....including Mankind, who still seems to be favouring his ribs following Jeff Hardy's Steel Chair Swanton Bomb courtesy of Raven. Mankind tells Raven that he's not at 100%....in fact just breathing is a chore right now....he says that he doesn't know how much use he's going to be tonight. Raven tells him that's just Mankind talking.....

"......and Mankind is weak.....we both know what you need to do in order to get through tonight.....you need a little push....a little helping hand.......you need a man that thrives on pain and suffering.......you need......Jack....."

Raven reaches behind him, and again hands the same shirt to Mankind that he's been trying to get him to take for months now. Mankind takes the Shirt and stares down at it. Raven stands and turns to walk out of the Locker Room, before pausing at the door way and telling Mankind that "....you know I'm right.....you know what you need to do....." before heading down to ringside, with Bill DeMott and Al Snow close behind him.....Snow also comes to a stop at the doorway, waiting for Raven to be out of earshot before asking Mankind.....

"......is it really Jack that you need? Or is it time for the Dude to come out and dance? I've seen the video "Mick".....the whole video....Sherlock Snow and Doctor Head tracked your friends down......I know what you really want......and I won't let Raven drag you down to his level.....the world needs to see the real you.....and I'm going to show them...."

Rating: A*

It's back to action now....and Raven is out first, leading his Flock into battle....they're missing a member however, and when he reaches the ring Raven turns and looks expectantly at the entrance way....presumably waiting for the mysterious "Jack" to appear.....unfortunately for him it's a wincing Mankind that comes limping out of the back, clearly deciding again that tonight isn't the night to set Jack free, much to Ravens obvious annoyance. The Legion of Doom and The Hardys are out next.....and they don't wait for the introductions before they charge down the aisle and go right to work attacking the Flock. Unfortunately Mankind isn't much help with his banged up ribs....and surprisingly he is the first eliminated after Hawk and Animal catch him with the Doomsday Device. Al Snow looked like he was about to break up the preceding pinfall attempt, but Raven stopped him, telling him that he "...brought this on himself..." before climbing into the ring and kneeling down beside Mankind, telling him how disappointed he is in him. That elimination leaves the Flock a man down.....but not for long.....

.....as the Dogs of War come running down the aisle, still seething from their loss on Monday Night.....Hawk and Animal drop to the floor to meet them and begin brawling with Wrath and Crush.....a brawl that goes all the way up the aisle and into the back, until the official finally declares that due to them leaving the ringside area, The Legion of Doom have BOTH been eliminated. In the blink of an eye, the Hardys have gone from being a man up to being a man down....they show their heart however has they battle against the odds to eliminate Bill DeMott following a Twist of Fate from Matt.....who gets immediately eliminated by Raven, who hits him with an Evenflow DDT. That leaves Jeff Hardy all alone against Al Snow and Raven. Hardy fights both men off....and finally gets Al Snow beaten down enough to go for the Swanton Bomb....in a move reminiscent of a few weeks back on Raw however, Raven slips a steel chair onto the chest of Snow, and again Hardy crashes into steel. This time however, Hardy is still close enough to Snow that he can drape an arm over his chest for the three count......only for Raven to pull him straight to his feet and deliver another Evenflow for the pinfall and the victory.

Survivor(s): Raven
Rating: B

We go to a hype video following that, detailing the long history building up to tonight's big showdown between The Undertaker and his brother, the Big Red Monster, Kane....we see the reveal of Kane's identity, and his subsequent beat down of The Deadman......the months of Jim Cornette's lies and taunts.....the return of the Undertaker.....the destruction of Mankind and both Kane and the Undertakers hands......and finally this last Monday Night on Raw.....with the Chokeslam to Jim Cornette, followed by the huge brawl between the two brothers.....until finally the promo ends, and it's time for the match that's twenty years in the making.

It's finally time to settle a twenty year old grudge.....but a rivalry that goes back even further.....as brother fights brother when the Undertaker goes one on one with Kane.....the sibling that he thought perished in the same fire that killed their parents twenty years ago. We still don't fully know the details of what went down that night.....and we probably never will know, since each brother has a different story......what we do know is that each Brothers story set them on the same path, creating the walking paths of destruction that each man has become.

<img style="max-width:50%;
"src="https://i.imgur.com/IaaIaiL.jpg">

Each competitor is accompanied by their respective manager.....Paul Bearer out with the Undertaker, while Jim Cornette (neck brace and all) is out with the monster Kane. The two behemoths face off and you can feel the tension in the air, before the Deadman finally breaks the deadlock by unloading with right hands on Kane....a swift flurry of blows that leaves him breathless, but Kane has barely moved and simply cricks his neck back and forth before letting fly with a series of blows of his own that sends the Undertaker reeling back into the corner, where Kane chokes the life out of his brother, before Irish Whipping him hard into the opposite side of the ring and nailing him with a huge corner clothesline. The vicious onslaught continues for some time while McMahon and Ross exclaim that we have never seen the Undertaker manhandled like this.

The Undertaker barely got out of the starting blocks here before Kane began his assault....and he struggles to regain his footing back into the match...but even so, this is the Undertaker....and it's Kane's turn to be shocked, when after a hard Chokeslam (with some encouragement from Paul Bearer and the Urn) the Deadman is able to sit up like a zombie rising from the grave. Kane again tries to unleash a series of strikes, but this time the Undertaker is able to block some....avoid the rest....and deliver a series of punches of his own that actually rock Kane back into the ropes, where the Deadman delivers an Irish Whip followed by a big boot....and when Kane stands up from that, the Undertaker clotheslines him right over the top and down to the floor. Seeing his opportunity the Undertaker runs and soars, taking flight over the top rope towards his brother......

<img style="max-width:50%;
"src="https://i.imgur.com/e5dFNpU.gif">

.......unfortunately Kane moves out of the way at the last second....and uses the Undertakers own momentum to send him crashing through the Spanish announce table. Kane continues his attack on the outside, while Jim Cornette taunts a wailing Paul Bearer that he's backing the wrong brother. Back inside the ring and Kane picks up a near fall off a powerslam....then drags the Undertaker to his feet and attempts a Chokeslam, but Taker slips free at the hight of Kane's lift and lands behind his brother, hitting a Russian leg sweep....and slowly the Deadman claws his way back into the contest, and eventually lands a Chokeslam of his own, but it's only good for a two count. Things got pretty even after that as the two men traded moves.....Undertaker wrung Kane's arm, before walking along the top rope and dropping that hammering blow....Kane took to the top rope himself with an impressive flying clothesline that was only good for two...

Kane goes back up top to try again to connect with the clothesline, but The Deadman takes his legs out from under him, crotching him on the top rope before delivering a devastating Superplex....then sitting up and signalling for the Tombstone. He drags the mammoth Kane up to his feet and positions him for the finishing manoeuvre....but Kane shifts his weight and reverses the hold......before Tombstoning his brothers skull into the mat....impossibly however the Undertaker gets his shoulder up at the last possible moment....and while we can't see Kane's face, he's clearly in shock. He drags Taker to his feet and locks his big gloved hand around his throat....but again the deadman is able to reverse it, before picking up Kane and delivering a Tombstone of his own.....

<img style="max-width:50%;
"src="https://i.imgur.com/CVJaEgk.gif">

.......but Kane kicks out! Is there nothing that will keep this big monster down? The Undertaker looks lost....no one has EVER kicked out of his Tombstone Piledriver....and he's got to be wondering what he has to do to win this one. He turns to look at Paul Bearer for guidance, but even his manager looks shocked....and he looks even more shocked when Kane begins to sit up in the background. Bearer raises the Urn towards his Undertaker, urging him to find the strength to put his brother away.....which is when the Deadmans expression changes to a look of determination....and he spins around and drags Kane to his feet by the hair....delivering not one....not two....but three clotheslines in succession.....

<img style="max-width:50%;
"src="https://i.imgur.com/7CY4KIp.gif">

......and even that is barely enough.....the referee registers the one, two, three....but Kane was still able to get a shoulder up at three and a half.....unfortunately for him, that half a second cost him the match.....and the Undertaker is the one to Survive tonight.....by the skin of his teeth.....

Winner: The Undertaker
Rating: A

The match is over.....and while the Undertaker is completely spent, Kane looks as though he wishes to continue the fight.....Jim Cornett however has seen enough for one day....and drags his Monster from the ring by his hair, promising him that revenge will be his.....just not tonight. Kane is reluctantly lead to the back, while the Undertaker struggles to pull himself up to one knee just long enough to salute both the crowd and the Urn....while we go backstage ahead of the final match of the evening.

Rating: A*

We have another set of pre-recorded promo's here.....and while these two opposing teams SHOULD be cutting promos on their oppositions, they spend most of the time arguing amongst themselves.....The Hart Brothers are bickering with Austin and Pillman.....while Shawn Michaels and Kevin Nash are both as far away from each other as physically possible, while still tossing passive aggressive comments back and forth......you couldn't look at either team here and see a cohesive unit.....quite how they are going to co-exist in our main event is anyone's guess, but we are going to find out......next.

Rating: A*

VS.

Well the time is upon us....and if there has been a match this year with bigger ramifications than this one then I don't know what it is.....because if the KLiQ don't win here, then the black and white party bus is going to find itself coming to a screeching halt......but if Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Steve Austin and Brian Pillman don't win, then the title picture here in the WWF is going to find itself missing four contenders....but the real question is, can either team truly co-exist.....

.....and the animosity is clear from the entrances alone.....because despite the fan holding up a sign in the front row that reads "Hart-ywood Blondes" (sorry Beejus, that was too good of a name not to steal) the Harts and their partners, Steve Austin and Brian Pillman are bickering before the KLiQ have even come out......and when the KLiQ does come out....they seem to be missing a member.....because Shawn Michaels is nowhere to be seen....and it's only when everyone else is in the ring does the KLiQ music die down......and we get the first rendition of "Sexy Boy" over the sound system since Wrestlemania XII.....as the WWF Champion makes a lone entrance to the match, shouting into the camera that he's the main event.....the man.....the Showstopper.....and he's not going to share the spotlight with anyone.....ok Shawn, way to make friends and influence people.

The bell rings and Michaels shoo's the rest of the KLiQ out of the ring....clearly he wants all the attention on him at the start of the match.....the opposition can't decide who's starting for them, as the entire team wants a piece of Michaels.....eventually however Stone Cold makes the decision for them by flipping both Bret and Owen off and and charging at Michaels....landing with a Thez Press and pummelling the Champion with blows.....Shawn manages to scramble away from Austins attack and dives towards his corner looking for a Tag.....unfortunately the rest of the KLiQ drop to the floor out of arms reach, with Nash telling Michaels that if he wants the spotlight, he can have it. Austin drags HBK into the corner and begins stomping the hell out of him.....which gave Owen Hart the opportunity to slap Austin on the back, making the blind tag.....

.....and so it continues, with Owen and Bret tagging in and out, and Austin and Pillman tagging in and out.....but their opposites only manage to tag in blind, because the Harts won't tag in Stone Cold or the Loose Cannon, and vice-versa......one thing they did have in common however, was they all happily pounded on Shawn Michaels.....who simply could not get a tag from the KLiQ, no matter how much he pleaded......until finally he was able to catch Owen Hart out of nowhere with the Sweet Chin Music, then Kevin Nash reached a long arm into the ring and slapped HBK's back, stepped over the top rope......and Jacknife Powerbombed Owen Hart right out of the match....

Eliminated: Owen Hart

.......Shawn Michaels rolls to the outside and collapses on the floor after the beating he has just taken....so while the KLiQ technically have the man advantage, it's still really 3 vs 3 right now, because Shawn is useless. Bret is straight into the ring to try and avenge his brother.....but Nash has been on the ring apron for a long time, and if he can't beat up on Shawn Michaels, then he's got to take out his frustration on someone....so while Bret Hart does get some shots in initially, Big Sexy soon cuts him off and drags him into the corner where he begins beating him unmercifully.....so much so that even Brian Pillman hits the ring to try and drag Nash off, but he spins Pillman around and rest him against Bret.....then begins pummelling BOTH men in the corner.....Austin then hits the ring to break THAT up.....but Nash sees him coming and spins around, leaving Austin a big boot to run into. Kevin Nash just put on a huge display of dominance.....and the crowd are actually cheering him for it.

Nash isn't quite the glory hog that Shawn Michaels is however, and he makes the tag out to Scott Hall while the official tries to determine the legal man......Hall makes the decision for him, hitting Pillman with the Razor's Edge and covering him for the one, two, three.

Eliminated: Brian Pillman

I'm sure if either Bret Hart or Steve Austin knew that they would find themselves on a two on four situation tonight, then they would have preferred it to be with their own tag team partner.....alas that's not to be here, as these enemies turned unlikely allies now have to rely on each other to watch their back. Unfortunately four against two are big odds to over come.....the odds for Steve Austin are about to get a lot worse however.....because after another Hart/Austin argument in the middle of the ring, the official orders Stone Cold back to his corner.....and physically follows him there to make sure he goes.......which is when Sean Waltman nails Bret Hart right between the eyes with a steel chair....makes the cover.....and just like that two against four becomes four against one.

Eliminated: Bret Hart

That leaves Stone Cold Steve Austin in the rather unenvious position of being all alone against the KLiQ......Michaels has had zero input into this match since his initial battering to open the proceedings.....and that doesn't change here.....as the Wolfpack of the KLiQ, the trio of Hall, Nash and Waltman all charge Austin, punching him to the mat and then mercilessly stomping the Stevewisers out of him, until the official finally regains some control, ordering Hall and Nash out of the ring, while Waltman vigorously tells the crowd to "Suck It"......before turning around.......

.....straight into a Stone Cold Stunner.

Eliminated: Sean Waltman

......Hall barely had chance to step out of the ring before he comes charging back towards Austin.....

......Stone Cold Stunner......

Eliminated: Scott Hall

.......and in the blink of an eye, Steve Austin just halved his odds.....and the crowd, believe it or not.....is actually chanting his name. Nash is furious with the turn of events and hits the ring.....and Austin.....at full force.....unloading all his big moves....Snake Eyes....The Side Slam....Big Boot.....Flick the Hair.....Choke in the Corner with the Sole of the Boot.....Austin manages to kick out of the subsequent pinfall attempt however.....which p####s Nash off, who slaps the mat in anger. Shawn Michaels wants tagging into the match now that Austin is down and hurt, but Nash waves him off, telling him to go be the Showstopper on the apron. Clearly Michaels doesn't like being spoken to like that, and hops between the ropes to tell Nash exactly that, because "....I'm the icon.....I'm the frigging main event.....the showstopper.....the WWF Champion......I am the reason for the ratings.....and the reason that your damn merchandise check is so big......now pick his bald ass up so I can kick his teeth down his throat....."

Nash has clearly had enough now, and just wants this match over with so that he can head to the back and away from the Heartbreak Kid....he picks Austin up off the mat and drags him to his feet, while Shawn Michaels tunes up the band......but in a mirror image of the same situation two years ago at Survivor Series 94, Steve Austin moves at the last second......and Michaels foot connects with nothing but jaw on Kevin Nash. Shawn puts his hands over his face in disbelief......that really was an accident.....but with Michaels distracted, Austin is able to toss him out of the ring and to the floor, then turns around to find Kevin Nash still standing....but wobbling back and forth, out on his feet......

......Stone Cold Stunner.......

Eliminated: Kevin Nash

......and then there was one.....Steve Austin has just worked his way through 3/4 of the KLiQ single handedly.....but he's pretty beat up......and as soon as he is back to his feet, Michaels rolls back into the ring and tunes up the band.......

.......Sweet Chin Music.......

........but before he can make the cover, he gets clotheslined out of his boots by Kevin Nash.......

.........Nash stands over the fallen WWF Champion.......before leaning down and screaming ".....F##k you.....and F##k the KLiQ......I'm sick of this s##t......" and then proceeding to beat the arrogance out the Heartbreak Kid.....before finally putting a stop to it all with a huge Jacknife Powerbomb........

Nash climbs over the top rope and drops to the floor as Stone Cold slowly drags his way over to the unconscious WWF Champion and draping an arm over his chest.......Jim Ross screams that this is it.......the KLiQ is done right now..........McMahon doesn't answer, there's just the sound of a headset being slammed down as the official begins to count.......

.......one.........

.......two...........

"........RING THE BELL..........RING THE F#####G BELL........"

.....and the bell does indeed ring......as Vince McMahon talks to the timekeeper and ring announcer......before we are told......

".........Ladies and Gentlemen......I have just been informed that due to Kevin Nash not being a legal participant in this match when he attacked Shawn Michaels............Steve Austin has been disqualified!

......therefore, your winner..........and Sole Survivor.......the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels........"

Survivor(s): Shawn Michaels
Rating: A

Vince McMahon climbs into the ring with the WWF Championship and helps Shawn Michaels to his feet, before draping the title over his shoulder. Michaels has a huge smile on his face......while Nash on the other hands looks completely confused........and Steve Austin......well, Austin looks p####d. McMahon grabs a microphone and first of all orders security to escort Mr. Austin from ringside before he does something he regrets......he then.....well, basically orders the rest of the KLiQ to get down to ringside and not only congratulate......but thank the great Shawn Michaels for bringing them victory tonight.....

.....the rest of the KLiQ do indeed come out.....and they look as confused as Kevin Nash.....they do enter the ring however, offering some half hearted congratulations to Michaels, who's posing and celebrating like he won the match singlehandedly.....instead of barely featuring in the action like reality. Big Sexy is the only KLiQ member not to enter the ring.....instead he shakes his head at the scene before him, before flipping the bird at both Michaels and McMahon and heading to the back, as fireworks explode above the ring to celebrate a very undeserving victor.

All things considered, Survivor Series wasn't half the disappointment I was expecting it to be. Not that I was expecting the matches to be bad, but I didn't know how well the Survivor Series concept would go down in 1996.....and while it wasn't one of our highest rated shows, it was nowhere near the worst......and both the main event match and the Undertaker/Kane match really delivered....and to be fair probably saved the show......there's going to be a lot of stories coming out of this event......and a lot of explanations to be had.....should make for some interesting viewing.....hopefully anyway.

A lot of people might have been surprised by Jerry Lawlers loss, but in reality I've been considering removing him from the colour commentary spot for some time now. He's simply not improving at a quick enough rate and it's having an impact on a number of the segments.....don't expect to see Jerry wrestling on Raw week in week out though, he's going to be plying his trade at the Superstars announce table.....along with Jim Ross, to not only try and iron out the kinks in his work, but to see if we can get these two working well together as a regular duo.....because when they are on form they make an entertaining team.....they just aren't "on" often enough yet.

The only other real bit of news coming out of the event was Lance Storm landing awkwardly on that piledriver......broke his ass........well, not quite that serious.....he fractured his coccyx though....not badly enough to miss any ring time, but I'm probably going to keep him out of the ring until it's fully healed, or near enough anyway.....to only a 20 day or so injury.

Well, I really don't think that stipulation is going to matter a whole lot now anyways because the Kliq is broken. Shawn stands pretty much alone, against a face Nash, with the other three hanging in the balance between them. But the way things have played out, I'm going to bet that Hall and Pac are going to stick with Nash, and Justin is that redheaded stepchild who no one will want anyways. But it is neat to think that we must now have new contenders for the World and Tag titles, so I'm pretty curious to see who that will be.

He climbs into the ring to a chorus of boos.....which soon changes to a chant for Steve Austin of all people......followed by a chant of Kevin Nash. Vince tells the crowd that if they want to hear what he has to say, then he suggests that they shut their mouths and listen.....which obviously makes the boo's resonate even louder.....McMahon carries on regardless......first of all he introduces himself.....before telling the crowd that while they know him as the world class lead announcer of Monday Night Raw......he is also the owner and CEO of Titan Sports ".....or in laymans terms for you inbred, redneck hicks in the crowd.....I am the owner of the World Wrestling Federation....." He tells the crowd that they might be booing him now.....but they SHOULD be thanking him.....because what he did last night he did for all of them.....he says that since Shawn Michaels became WWF Champion, and the KLiQ was born.....business has been booming......ratings are up, attendances are up.....buy rates are up......and as for merchandise sales, you people are buying KLiQ shirts like they are going out of fashion.....which they WOULD have been last night, had he not intervened. He says that understandably there may be a few people upset by his decision, which is why they can chant for Austin, they can chant for Nash.....but both men....along with Bret Hart, Owen Hart and Brian Pillman, have been given the night off to cool down and prevent them from making any costly mistakes. Vince then asks Shawn Michaels and the remaining KLiQ members to join him in the ring..... <img alt="bN15JFv.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/bN15JFv.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="tsQXS32.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tsQXS32.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="IYJgUWD.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/IYJgUWD.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="pzXetTl.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/pzXetTl.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="MC3cI3I.jpg" data-src="https://i.Imgur.com/MC3cI3I.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> .......slowly but surely.....and still looking mighty confused by the events of last nigh, Scott Hall, Sean Waltman and Justin Credible make their way down to the ring......followed finally, as a spotlight follows him all the way down the aisle, by the WWF Champion Shawn Michaels, with the beautiful Sunny on his arm. Michaels climbs into the ring and gives McMahon a huge bear hug, before showing off the WWF Title to the braying crowd. McMahon continues speaking, addressing the KLiQ members directly, telling them that he knows tensions have been frayed within the group recently.....and Shawn, well Shawn's cockiness can be grating at times (to which Michaels acceptingly nods his head at)....... "......but damn it, that's Shawn Michaels.....The Heartbreak Kid....The Showstopper.....The Main Event.....The Reason for the Ratings.....and when you're that good, you're allowed to get a little cocky now and then....." He tells the Hall, Waltman, Credible...(and indirectly, Nash)....that he has every intention of ensuring that the KLiQ gravy train keeps on running, to keep the money rolling in and the ratings rising up....and Vince McMahon will do everything in his immense power, to ensure that this KLiQ members are properly protected ".......just like I protected Shawn back in June, when that muscle-head Scott Steiner thought for one second that HE would be a suitable Champion for MY company....." Vince says it was him that told Clarence Mason about the clause in the rule book.....because he wrote the god damn rule book.....and as far as all this bickering and fighting amongst yourselves.....it stops.....NOW......before handing Hall, Waltman, Credible and Sunny a piece of paper each. He tells them that to help smooth things over between the five men (and one woman) he's taken the liberty of drafting new contracts for each of them......and because Shawn Michaels assures me that the way to each of your hearts is not through your stomach, but in fact through your wallets....he thinks they will find their new wage structure acceptable. The KLiQ men and Sunny open up the contracts and read them over.....before becoming simultaneously wide-eyed at the amount of money specified on the contracts. McMahon says that he trusts that everything is to their liking? Hall and Waltman exchange a look, before shrugging their shoulders and turning to embrace Shawn Michaels with huge smiles on their faces, patting him on the back in a slightly over-exaggerated display of unity.

McMahon then informs Jim Ross down on commentary that he won't be joining him tonight, he has important things to take care of backstage.....but not to worry, he won't be alone on commentary....because he has Justin Credibles hand picked replacement for Jerry Lawler.......and here he is...... <img alt="eBuWMm2.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/eBuWMm2.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> ......Ravishing Rick Rude......

".....calm down damn it.....you're the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels....the World Wrestling Federation Champion.....the Showstopper....the Main Event.....you are the Reason for the Ratings, and you beat Scott Steiner AND Steve Austin, in the same night, in the same match.....you can beat that knucklehead one more time............except..........you won't need to at In Your House....... ....See Steiner.......I said if you could defeat Scott Hall then you would receive a title shot......I didn't however.....say a World Title shot no, no, no........see at In Your House, you get your title shot......your INTERCONTINENTAL title shot......against your brother, Rich Steiner........." Unsurprisingly Steiner doesn't take the news well......not that he doesn't want another piece of his brother....more that he was looking forward to righting a wrong that dated back to June's King of the Ring......McMahon is un-phased now that he is out of Big Poppa Pump's reach, merrily informing him that..... ".......and that is what you get for having the arrogance to demand ANYTHING of Vincent Kennedy McMahon......THIS however......is for having the nerve to place your hands on Vincent Kennedy McMahon.........." .....and with that the KLiQ rush the ring and begin assaulting Steiner in a vicious four on one beating.....and Shawn Michaels is tuning up the band, ready to land the final blow....... <img style="max-width:50%; "src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/j4gyHcP.jpg" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/j4gyHcP.jpg"></a> ......until Ahmed Johnson comes charging down the aisle......and he's got wood.....he's got huge wood......a huge plank of wood that he uses to send the KLiQ running from the ring to the safety of the floor. He paces around hyping up the crowd for a minute, before helping Scott Steiner to his feet. Michaels is in an even worse mood now.....and it doesn't get any better when Ahmed slowly points the plank of lumber in Shawn's direction.....then motions to his waist that he's gunning for the World Wrestling Federation Championship.....maybe we have found our new number one contender tonight after all.

The biggest news coming out of Raw this week was Scott Hall picking up an Achilles Tendinitis injury during his match with Scott Steiner after attempting the Razors Edge......Hall really needs to stop trying to get the bigger guys up in the Edge, at least from the mat anyway....hooking them when they're stood on the second rope is one thing, but Steiner is a big old mass of muscle to be trying to position over your shoulders......fortunately it's not too serious, and should be cleared up in a few weeks....he can probably work on it too, but the last thing I need to be doing is to be giving Scott Hall a reason to be self medicating. Jerry Lawler was backstage at Raw, passing on a few tips and tricks on psychology to The Rock.....this kids mic work has really improved recently....and if Lawler can continue to show him the ropes in the other aspects of the sport, we could have something special on our hands before long. WCW held their World War 3 Pay Per View on Sunday.....it was underwhelming to say the least.....especially when you factor in their decision to have Kevin Sullivan of all people to win the World War 3 match......which they at least had the common sense to condense down to a 30 man battle royal this year, because that 60 man concept is a shambles. WCW Champion Bam Bam Bigelow was relegated to the Semi-Main Event spot again.....fresh of his match of the year candidate against Randy Savage at Halloween Havoc, he successfully defended the gold in a rather lacklustre affair against Lex Luger......as for Savages reward for his showing at Halloween Havoc? He got to work Evad Sullivan....at least he went over. The rather unusual combination of Marcus Bagwell and former Headshrinker Samu captured the WCW Tag Team Titles from the Blue Bloods.....don't ask......and One Man Gang began a second reign as Television Champion, taking the title back from the guy who beat him for it, Disco Inferno.....other results were.... Kevin Sullivan won the World War 3 Battle Royal B+ Bam Bam Bigelow defeated Lex Luger to retain the WCW Title B DDP retained US Title over Earl Robert Eaton C One Man Gang began his second Tv title reign defeating Disco Inferno D+ Randy Savage beat Evad Sullivan B Marcus Bagwell and Samu captured the WCW Tag Team Titles from the Blue Bloods B Lt. James Earl beat Ice Train D+ Buddy Parker beat Duke Droese D+ I'm not entirely sure how their World War 3 gimmick is working this year, but my God if Sullivan winning means they plan on running with Bam Bam Bigelow vs Kevin Sullivan for the World strap at Starrcade then heaven have mercy on the poor souls that buy the thing. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43289" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"> Preview for Monday Night Raw, Week 1, December 1996 Scott Steiner & Ahmed Johnson vs. Shawn Michaels & Rich Steiner Comments: Rey Mysterio vs. Kane Comments: Jerry Lynn vs. Christopher Daniels Comments: Savio Vega vs. Raven Comments: Marc Mero vs. Mr. Perfect Comments: Will Kevin Nash be there tonight to shake Shawn Michaels hand?

Shawn stands pretty much alone, against a face Nash, with the other three hanging in the balance between them. But the way things have played out, I'm going to bet that Hall and Pac are going to stick with Nash, and Justin is that redheaded stepchild who no one will want anyways. But it is neat to think that we must now have new contenders for the World and Tag titles, so I'm pretty curious to see who that will be.</div></blockquote> Is it broken? Is it? It's like the man himself once said, this is show business, not show friends.....and that's a pretty lucrative contract that Vince McMahon is offering <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />
