WWF Survivor Series 1993 - November 1993


WWF Survivor Series 1993 - November 24th 1993 - Boston, Massachusetts

Matches
Marty Janetty, Randy Savage, Razor Ramon. 123 Kid defeated IRS, Diesel, Rick Martel, Adam Bomb (7/10)
The Hart Family defeated Shawn Michaels and his Knights (6/10)
The Heavenly Bodies defeated Rock n Roll Express (6/10)

Four Doinks & Men on a Mission defeated Headshrinkers, Bam Bam Bigelow and Bastion Booger (5/10)
Lex Luger, The Undertaker and The Steiner Brothers defeated Yokozuna, Crush, Ludvig Borga and Quebecer Jacqueces (7/10)

Moments - Positives
The event had few positives overall. The opening match and the closing match were both pretty solid and the inclusion of the Undertaker in the main event worked well in solidifying Luger's team as true babyfaces. The match also did a very good job at setting up an Undertaker/Yokozuna feud. The Hart Family/HBK feud was also well done and the inplosion within the Hart Family as Owen Hart throws a fit comes over really well.

Moments - Negatives
The middle of the card is long winded and pretty poor all around. The PPV suffers from the same problem as the Summerslam PPV in that the main eventers appear to be missing. Yokozuna started to come across as a dominating champion but Luger continued to be a pretty poor face.

Overall Summary
This was slightly better than the Summerslam event a few months earlier. Yokozuna, Undertaker and to some extent the Steiners improved the whole of the main event focus and Yokozuna started to look like a proper World Champion. The Hart foundation feud/turn was also really well built up and the PPV focused on this quite a bit. It helped the PPV stand out from something like say the Summerslam event.

SCORE = 7.0
