WWE: Survivor Series 2012



Can Punk Make It To One Year As Champion?
It should be noted that Jerry Lawler returned to the commentary booth earlier in the week on RAW while J.B.L. is officially now a SmackDown commentator once again leading to a three man announce team with Michael Cole with everyone (including Lawler himself) making jokes about his heart attack weeks earlier. WWE would read The Rock's tweet in regards to the WWE Championship match throughout the night along with show Touts from fans about who would win since The Rock has the WWE Title shot at the Royal Rumble.

Elimination Match: Brodus Clay, Rey Mysterio, Sin Cara, Tyson Kidd, Justin Gabriel vs. Tensai, Primetime Players, Epico, Primo - A bonus traditional elimination match here with four established tag teams & two of the biggest men in the WWE that had various highlights such as the crowd not forgetting Tensai's past, the team work between the teams of Mysterio/Cara & Kidd/Gabriel, the Clay vs. Tensai showdown, and the standout performance of Tyson Kidd, and the finishing...

Match listing on the back is wrong
This is not a review of the Pay-Per-View Event itself but is more of a review of the match listing shown on the back of the DVD/Blu Ray case. I just wanted to point out to anyone that has this WWE Pay-Per-View on DVD or Blu Ray and everyone that is going to buy it in the future that if you look on the back you will or might notice that one of the matches listed says Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara vs The Prime Time Players (Titus O Neil & Darren Young) however when you actually watch it you will find out that that match is actually supposed to be a Tag Team Elimination Match between Team Mysterio (Brodus Clay, Sin Cara, Rey Mysterio, Tyson Kidd & Justin Gabriel) vs Team PTP (Tensai, Primo, Epico & The Prime Time Players Darren Young & Titus O Neil. And on the back of the case of the Blu Ray version/edition the case does not have the Exclusive Blu Ray Bonus Features shown/listed like most WWE Blu Rays do.

Survivor Series 2012
TRIPLE THREAT MATCH FOR THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP
CM Punk(c) vs. John Cena vs. Ryback
- 3.5/5 stars. Good triple threat here. Loved the debut fo the Shield. CM Punk pins Cena for the win after Ryback hits him with his finisher.

TEAM FOLEY(Orton, KIngston, Miz, & Team Hell No) VS. TEAM ZIGGLER(Ziggler, ADR, Barrett, Otunga, & Sandow)
5 ON 5 TRADITIONAL SURVIVOR SERIES TAG TEAM ELIMINATION MATCH
- 4/5 stars. Easily the match of the night. Fun match. Ziggler gets the win for his team after a superkick on Orton, and he is the sole survivor.

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Big Show(c) vs. Sheamus
- 3/5 stars. Wasn't as good as the HIACPPV match, but still good. Sheamus wins by DQ.

UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP
Antonio Cesaro(c) vs. R-Truth
- 2.5/5 stars. This was an alright match here. Nothing that exciting Cesaro picks up the win on Truth.

DIVAS CHAMPIONSHIP
Eve(c) vs. Kaitlyn
- 2/5 stars. Just a normal...
