Within a few short weeks, Henry's Universe Mode will begin again, on Sunday November 27th for Survivor Series. I'm here today to run-down the card and explain each match, so that you can better understand the stories whilst reading the post. Enjoy!
Survivor Series 2016 Card:
The Wyatt Family vs The Shield
These two warring factions have been going back and forth on Raw. Both have been having their issues, with the Shield even abandoning their signature entrance as tempers boil. In order to cease the chaos, Raw GM Shane McMahon ordered this six-man tag match in hopes of settling the score.
Baron Corbin(c) vs Apollo Crews- Intercontinental Title Match
Two of SmackDown's break-out stars will collide when Baron Corbin and Apollo Crews meet for the Intercontinental Title. Apollo won a 10-man battle royal to earn his title shot, and will look to dethrone the Lone Wolf.
Kevin Owens(c) vs Sami Zayn- United States Title Match
Kevin Owens has been running the Raw brand since his arrival in early October, defeating the likes of John Cena and Mark Henry, even picking up a win over the World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar. Owens declared that Raw is the "Kevin Owens Show" and challenged anyone to try and stop him. Enter Sami Zayn. The former NXT Champion has promised to finally topple his bitter enemy and prove himself on the main roster.
Bayley vs Asuka- Raw Women's Title Match
After Nia Jax walked out with the WWE Women's Title, GM Shane McMahon was scrambling to find a solution. He introduced the Raw Women's Title, to be decided in a tournament featuring all nine of Raw's female competitors. The semi-finals came down to Bayley, Sasha Banks, Asuka and Nikki Bella. Bayley rolled up her best friend Sasha to advance and Asuka forced Nikki to submit to an Asuka Lock to set up the finals.
Team Undertaker vs Team Kane- Traditional Survivor Series Match
The Brothers of Destruction have been trading shots back and forth, but their feud may be finally coming to an end. When the Deadman traveled to SmackDown to face his brother, the Big Red Machine had help in the form of The Ascension, Konnor and Viktor. The Undertaker, a definite loner, was tasked with finding opponents to take on his brother. He chose the new World Tag Team Champions, Hideo Itami and Finn Balor, who had just upset The Outsiders. With the armies chosen, the stage is now set for war.
AJ Styles(c) vs Randy Orton vs Cesaro vs Tyson Kidd- WWE Title Match
The Phenomenal One reigns over SmackDown with an iron fist. He personally chose his challenger when he cost former champion Cesaro in a #1 Contender's Match with Randy Orton. Styles and Orton formed an unlikely alliance to keep the Swiss Superman away from the gold, but they were proven unsuccessful when Tyson Kidd returned to help out his friend. Cesaro and Kidd defeated Styles and Orton to be added to the title match, making it a fatal four-way. With three hungry challengers, can AJ Styles keep hold of his WWE Title, or will Randy Orton, Cesaro or Tyson Kidd walk out champion?
Brock Lesnar(c) vs Goldberg- World Heavyweight Title Match
The Beast Incarnate. The Conqueror. Whatever you call him, Brock Lesnar is dominance personified. Enraged over the firing of his manager Paul Heyman, Lesnar has been on an absolute tear. When Shane refused Brock's demand to avoid defending his belt at Survivor Series, Lesnar snapped, devastating the Raw GM with two F-5s. Shane announced by proxy that Lesnar's next opponent would be revealed. In the Champion vs Champion main event, Goldberg's music played, distracting Lesnar and allowing Kevin Owens to get the surprise win. Goldberg returned to go face-to-face with Lesnar just days before Survivor Series, their confrontation ending when Goldberg delivered a Jackhammer to the champion.
There you have it. In just a few week's time, Survivor Series will be posted, featuring Brock Lesnar vs Goldberg in the main event for the World Heavyweight Title.
