The Big Show healthy and hoping to return to the WWF action in 'next couple of weeks'.

Big Show's last WWE match was in early September 2017, inside of a steel cage against Braun Strowman.

Universal Championship: Roman Reigns finally got the best of Brock Lesnar.

This wasn't good. Started well but just fell apart in to a smash and grab win that was beyond anti-climactic considering the road we have been on to get here.
Braun telling them that he was going to wait until they beat eachother up to cash in (like every other MITB winner in history) because he's not a coward was just inexplicable.

Ronda Rousey became a WWE champion, defeating Alexa Bliss.

Bliss bumped a good few times! This was ok, Ronda always looks good in the ring but it wasn't as good as her other appearances. I just love the intensity though.

The Miz defeated Daniel Bryan.

I liked this. Is Bryan stays (which I think he will) then Miz and Bryan at WrestleMania is the goal. Miz picking up the win here makes that even more likely. I'm OK with this.

Shinsuke defeated Jeff Hardy for the U.S. Championship.

What the hell was the point of Orton coming down and then walking away again. Shinsuke's ring gear was on point, btw. Hardy almost killed himself doing a swanton on to the apron.

WWE Championship: Somoa Joe defeated AJ Styles via disqualification.

Was getting really good and they just decided to go with a fucking DQ. Needed 5 more minutes of hard hitting action but what we got was pretty good. Joe trolling AJ's family was good.

SmackDown Women's Champion: Charlotte Flair defeated Carmella and Becky Lynch.

Meh. Becky can't catch a break.

Braun Strowman defeated Kevin Owens.

Braun is the face, right? That first shoulder barge was scary af.

SmackDown Tag Team Championship: New Day defeated Bludgeon Brothers.

This was organized mayhem but good fun.

Intercontinental Championship: Seth Rollins defeated Dolph Ziggler.

You don't expect these two to put on a bad match. They didn't.


For the most part the in ring action was really good but once again the show is let down by the insane amount of filler and promos that wear you down over SEVEN hours and the inexplicable booking that makes no sense whatsoever. Three years of build-up for that main event. LOL.

SUICIDE DIVE CITY, BITCH.

Randy Orton hit an RKO on an airborne Rey Mysterio on the outside of the ring, followed up with a second RKO for the pinball, and then claimed Mysterio's mask as SmackDown went off the air. They had some battles more than a decade ago on SmackDown, but it seems as though this is just the start of renewed tensions. On the flip side, Charlotte Flair defeated Billie Kay to open SmackDown and had Peyton Royce beat in a second match. Though that one ended in DQ, Flair continued the path of destruction that began at Survivor Series against Ronda Rousey.

Daniel Bryan pronounced the "Yes" movement dead, in a promo clearly designed to cement his heel turn. He spent most of his speech talking in the third person, and wrapped it all up by calling himself the "new" Daniel Bryan. Rounding out the show, The Miz insisted an uprepared Shane McMahon tag with him, which led to Miz getting rolled up by one of the local enhancement talents labeled the Bryant brothers. Finally, Naomi and Asuka (in matching gear, which can only fuel speculation of a women's tag team title to come) defeated Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose.

Revisiting the WWE's Survivor Series tradition that began on Thanksgiving Day 1987

Survivor Series 1987 was the WWE's first pay-per-view event outside of WrestleMania, and set the tone for 30 years of events that followed. As we prepare for Thanksgiving on Thursday, it gives us the opportunity to revisit a moment in time more than 30 years ago, when the first Survivor Series event reached airwaves in the evening hours of Thanksgiving Day.

The main event was a match that would become a tradition -- a five-on-five elimination tag match between teams captained by Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant. The two had met several months prior at WrestleMania III, and the event was a way to further their feud with another big payoff.

Event: 1987 Survivor Series
Location: Richfield Coliseum; Richmond, OH
Date: November 26, 1987
The Matchup: Hulk Hogan, Paul Orndorff, Bam Bam Bigelow, Don Muraco and Ken Patera
versus
Andre the Giant, One Man Gang, King Kong Bundy, Rick Rude and "The Natural" Butch Reed

i

Bam Bam Bigelow reached the end of the match against Andre the Giant, having outlasted Hulk Hogan and eliminated two men by himself, but Andre would ultimately be the sole survivor.
