WWF Survivor Series 1991 - November 27th 1991 - Detroit, Michigan

Matches
Ric Flair, Mountie, Ted DiBiase and Warlord defeated Roddy Piper, Bret Hart, Virgil and British Bulldog (7/10)
Sgt Slaughter, Jim Duggan, Texas Tornado and Tito Santana def Coun Mustafa, Berzeker, Skinner and Hercules (4/10)
The Undertaker defeated Hulk Hogan {WWF World Heavyweight Title} (9/10)

Nasty Boys & Beverly Brothers defeated The Rockers & The Bushwhackers (6/10)
Legion of Doom and Big Bossman defeated IRS and Natural Disasters (6/10)


Moments - Positives
Not a bad pay-per-view at all. Firstly, it was the first proper PPV featuring Ric Flair which was a very significant moment. It was also the first WWF World title reign for the Undertaker as he defeated Hogan with interference from Flair. This was a memorable moment a year after Taker's debut. Savage getting re-instated and the feud between Snake / Savage also showcased at this event.

Moments - Negatives
Some of the matches themselves were pretty poor, particularly the last two and the Sgt Slaughter tag match. The storylines stood out in this event as well as the World title match otherwise it would have most certainly been below average!

Overall Summary
As always with these Survivor Series events, the matches themselves were pretty poor but the storylines were actually solid. Seeing Hogan lose the title unexpectedly was most certainly the highlight and it is worth watching the show just to see Undertaker win t he gold for the very first time!

SCORE = 7.0
