Really sinks in just how much talent is on that roster seeing all those names, and that's with two of the best (ZKO) not even on the card as of now

I eagerly look forward to seeing how WWE booking screws up a card like that. :lol:

Only 2 matches that interest me at this point.
- Raw vs. Smackdown (5v5 men)
- Lesnar vs. Styles.

Crazy fact - Randy Orton is the youngest member of the SmackDown men's team.

really REALLY good card, only matches that aren't good are Natalya vs Bliss (why would you think that's a drawing match idk). Legit every other match is great.

Also, i hope they put the rumoured match on, two crowd favourites and the two best stables WWE has had in the last decade. Shame Wyatt is out, otherwise adding the Wyatt family to the mix for that would have been fantastic.

It feels like WWE saw the buzz TLC got with the last minute card changes and did it again with Survivor Series

"Heres the card for Survivor Series"

"Forget Lesnar vs Mahal, it's Lesnar vs Styles now!"

"And now Cena is in the 5 vs 5 Match!"

"Forget Shield vs Usos, it's Shield vs New Day now!"

"And now Triple H is in the 5 vs 5 Match!"

I have a feeling that The Bar v The Usos is going to get MOTN. Super pumped for Lesnar v Styles.

Yeah, they pretty clearly don't understand that the buzz with TLC wasn't because they changed the card, but because the changes actually made the card interesting when prior to that it was boring as hell. They took a card that no one gave a crap about and made it intriguing.

I have a feeling Angle will turn on team Raw setting up a Wrestlemania ( or some other PPV ) match between him and HHH.

Given the way that Jason Jordan has been received, it honestly might make more sense to have him and Angle form a heel team and let Triple H be the face. They could just move Steph off screen (no one is ever going to like her at this point) and finally do the Triple H NXT faction that has seemed like a no-brainer for so long that it's baffling WWE has never gone with it.

I was thinking the same with that tag match. Very underrated but it's going to be fantastic. I am also very pumped for Lesnar/Styles.
Kobe Bryant was asked who he feels is the toughest opponent to guard in the NBA. Instead of picking OKC's Kevin Durant, Bryant went with Portland’s Brandon Roy.

"Roy 365 days, seven days a week. Roy has no weaknesses in his game."

Something crazy has to happen with the main event, maybe the HHH NXT stable or DB getting his own stable. SS always has something whacky happen.

It's crazy. I think wwe has figured out this weird formula where if you have a card full of matches that fans want to see, it drums up more interest in the ppv and more fans will watch it. Weird wild stuff.

Well, it may not be to the same degree (some matches were already going to be exciting), but that's happened with the SS card too.

How many people do you think were dying to see that Brock/Jinder match? Or that Alexa/Natalya match? They switched them both out and each got about 700% more interesting IMO.

Right, but my point was that they easily could have spent a month building to Styles/Lesnar and it still would have been a marquee match. Changing it up at the last minute didn’t make a Styles/Lesnar match better. The fact that Mahal wasn’t involved made it better.

I want Angle to form a stable with Jordan, Gable and Shelton. Hell bring back Haas too.

I don't agree about the Alexa/Natalya match. I have very little interest in Alexa/Charlotte, I think its possible I could have because I think Alexa especially is good enough on the mic that she could've gotten me invested in that match. But as a standalone match with minimal hype, I don't really have much interest. Plus, I think it was done because they wanted to have the shows split the women's matches, and Raw is definitely going to win the elimination match because they're not going to have Asuka's first time getting pinned on the main roster(I assume she got pinned in an NXT tag match that I can't remember) in a survivor series match, so they figured Alexa losing to the babyface Charlotte was better than the heel Nattie.

But I'm completely with you on Brock's match
