Although Survivor Series was a largely disappointing show for WWE fans, there were some results that set things up intriguingly for the future. With Tables, Ladders and Chairs just under three weeks away, it's inevitable there are going to be some matches at that show built on the fallout from Survivor Series. Whether it's from the WWE World Heavyweight Championship tournament or the other title matches that took place at Survivor Series, there are several results from last Sunday that will shape the identity of the card at TLC, with these three prime examples.   Charlotte def. Paige Given how Paige spoke out on Raw ...

1. Survivor Series Slumping WWE has let one of its most entertaining concepts wither. The Survivor Series elimination tag team match is packed with inherent drama. It's a unique match type that creates memorable alliances, furthers feuds and can generate momentum for stars on the rise. But WWE hasn't made enough use of it in recent years. At this year's Survivor Series, the company didn't even try. The pay-per-view featured two traditional elimination matches that were just thrown into the mix at the last minute. The participants weren't announced beforehand. WWE didn't bolster them with stories leading up to the event. There were no ...

The Divas Championship was at the center of an intense rivalry this week, culminating in a major title bout at Sunday's Survivor Series pay-per-view. With the memory of her late brother Reid fueling her, Charlotte valiantly defended her championship against Paige. A victory, though, was but an anomaly, as Paige recovered long enough to leave her opponent punished and in a heap just 24 hours later on Raw. Over on NXT, Bayley successfully retained the Women's Championship over Alexa Bliss but found herself the recipient of a challenge by the brand's most despised star, Eva Marie.  Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks returned to ...

After being thrown into the WWE World Heavyweight Championship tournament not long after coming back to WWE, it's no surprise it's taken Alberto Del Rio a while to find a foe with which to fight. But after the dust quickly settled on Survivor Series, Del Rio looked set to go at it with somewhat of a forgotten face from WWE television in recent times: Jack Swagger. Some would argue that Swagger is not a good fit for someone of Del Rio's stature, but when you weigh up the circumstances and the potential for some good storyline depth, this could actually be a ...

Survivor Series 2015 has come and gone—and it's given us a pretty good look at what WWE is poised to offer up over the next few months. As this year comes to a close, the cogs of the WrestleMania machine are whirring into life. We're not even close to the Royal Rumble yet, but there are already some early signs of what to expect when the biggest show of the year hits the AT&T Center. Here are the biggest takeaways from Survivor Series.   Undertaker Will Definitely Be At WrestleMania It would have made sense for the Wyatt Family to pull off a win against ...

The Thanksgiving holiday will bring with it turkey, mashed potatoes and a healthy helping of WWE SmackDown, the weekly Thursday broadcast taped Tuesday night in Indianapolis. Just days after suffering a crushing loss in the finals of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Tournament at Survivor Series, Dean Ambrose had the opportunity to earn himself a shot at the intercontinental title as he battled Tyler Breeze and Dolph Ziggler in a Triple Threat No. 1 Contender's match. Would he defeat his competition, two men he already has recent wins over, and earn a shot at Kevin Owens?  Or would he suffer another disappointing defeat? Speaking ...

The latest WWE rumors point to a dichotomy between how the company perceives Lana and Sheamus. The Ravishing Russian is reportedly in major trouble with WWE officials. She's apparently been digging herself a hole with recent social media posts. Sheamus, however, is rumored to be champion for the rest of the year. Lana resides in the doghouse; Sheamus is set to sit pretty in the spotlight. In other stories floating around the Internet, Solomon Crowe is reportedly headed elsewhere, and Seth Rollins' absence led to a surprising reaction. How much of this should fans buy? What do these rumors mean for what's ahead?  Let's dive ...

Survivor Series proved to be another disappointing evening for Bray Wyatt. Yet again he impressed during the build of a major feud, but as has been the case with Undertaker at WrestleMania this year and the likes of John Cena before that, Wyatt came up short once again. The WWE World Heavyweight Championship scene has moved on once again, and Wyatt is nowhere to be seen. So what can Bray Wyatt fans expect to happen over the next few months, as WWE tries to keep him on top of his game? Perhaps the most obvious feud for Wyatt will be with half of The ...

The battle for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship will rely on pathos as much as performance, on whether the company can make fans see Sheamus as the cold-hearted overlord and Roman Reigns as a martyr.  The more WWE can pull in the audience and make them agonize alongside Reigns, the more powerful this story will become. Done right, it will propel The Big Dog and showcase The Celtic Warrior as a top-tier heel. At the close of Survivor Series, that story began with Mr. Money in the Bank Sheamus knocking Reigns to the confetti-covered mat. After the referee hit a three-count, Reigns—WWE champion for just a ...

A disappointing edition of Survivor Series this year means there's plenty of room for improvement when it comes to rebooking the card. An ending that left many fans unhappy is easily corrected, with there also being plenty of chances to fine tune things lower down on the card, too. For this particular take on rebooking the Survivor Series card, we're going to not include the semi-final matches from the WWE World Heavyweight Championship tournament. All in all the right men came through those matches; it's just the final that needs addressing. Here's what the card could have looked like if it had been rebooked.Begin ...
