WWE Survivor Series 2004 (2004)

That was an excellent one.

Strong and Moving!

Load of rubbish!!

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I definitely enjoyed this PPV event very much, it had great matches & it was also very exciting the elimination matches of course.FIRST MATCH- SPIKE DUDLEY VS. BILLY KIDMAN VS. REY MYSTERIO VS. CHAVO GUERRERO IN A FATAL 4 WAY MATCH FOR THE WWE CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP A great opener for the Cruiserweight title, great match & great moves by all four men. Spike Dudley wins after covering a groggy Chavo Guerrero for the win to keep his Cruiserweight title. 5/10 SECOND MATCH- SHELTON BENJAMIN VS. Christian W/ TYSON TOMKO This was also a very good match as well. Shelton Benjamin is just a mad & cool athlete & all his matches are just exciting. Shelton retains his IC Title after nailing a T-Bone Suplex on Christian for the win. 6/10 THIRD MATCH- TEAM GUERRERO {JOHN CENA, ROB VAN DAM & BIG SHOW} VS. TEAM ANGLE {LUTHER REIGNS, MARK JINDRAK & CARLITO W/ Jesus} IN A 4-4 ELIMINATION MATCH Wasn't really bad, it was okay even though it was a bit slow paced, but it still later on was very a very good elimination match. Team Guerrero wins after eliminating Kurt Angle as last. 6/10 FOURTH MATCH- LITA VS. TRISH FOR THE WWE WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP This wasn't really a match for the Women's Title. It was a brawl, a brawl which Lita made Trish's nose bleed as therefore the match ended in a no contest. 2/10 FIFTH MATCH- UNDERTAKER VS. HEIDENREICH W/ PAUL HEYMAN Even though the match took pretty long, it was still good. Heidenreich definitely put a great match against the Undertaker. Undertaker pulls out the victory after a Tombstone Pilesdriver on Heidenreich. 5/10 SIXTH MATCH- BOOKER T VS. JBL W/ ORLANDO JORDAN FOR THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP Great effort by both men who put up a good fight. Booker T was just inches away to winning after a Scissors Kick, but Orlando Jordan knocked out the referee. While Booker T took out Orlando Jordan, Booker T turned around only to get slammed in the face by the WWE Belt by JBL who made the 3 count & was able to retain his WWE Title Belt. 5/10 SEVENTH MATCH- TEAM ORTON {CHRIS BENOIT, CHRIS JERICHO & MAVEN} VS. TEAM HHH {GENE SNITSKY, EDGE & BATISTA W/ RIC FLAIR} Unbelievable, this is definitely the match of the night. Great action from both teams & the ending was just so awesome. It is up to Orton against Edge & HHH as he is outnumbered. Edge goes for a Spear but misses & hits his partner accidentally HHH. Edge turns around only to get an RKO from Orton as Edge is eliminated. It is now up to HHH & Orton. While the referee is taking Edge out of the ring, HHH nails a low blow on Orton & sets him up for the Pedigree, just before HHH is about to nail the Pedigree, Orton reverses out of nowhere & nails the RKO to get the win for his team & his team will each get a turn to be General Managers on Raw. 8/10 This was definitely a very good PPV event as all the matches were good except the WWE Women's Championship match between Lita & Trish.Overall: I'll give it a 8/10 & a B+

Best thing about this Is the brilliant manga type artwork, the action Isn't a patch on the 2 previous SS. Cruiserweight 4 -way: Not typical frantic, air mile collecting stuff but some good spots from some talented guys. IC Championship: Christian apparently debuting his Intro In the match of the night. Selling Shelton's Impressive offence CC acts the consummate heel - If cheating won't win then surely abusing your opponent Into submission will, "flash In the pan" slap head! The wrestlings top notch too Shelton hits his finisher flawlessly, pulls out a great assisted slingshot suplex whilst Christian nails a vicious looking DDT, both combine well with many near falls & an exciting climax. S'down SS tag: The gubbins at the start leave poor Kurt even more handicapped than he was already, Eddie gets pummeled for what seems like an eternity, Big Show manages what appears to be a front roll and despite everything revolving around Cena I don't think he's tagged In once. One very funny bit when Angle's walkout Is foiled backing back towards the ring he fails to notice a man mountain waiting. Great comedy acting pleading for mercy before swinging for him cue multiple finishers and a feelgood end to a largely poor match.Taker/Heidenreich: Greco/Romano technicality It Isn't but this could have been a whole lot worse especially considering how long It went. I like Tazz & Cole on play by play but when they have to roll with a story......."Maybe Heidenreich CANT be beaten" you sure about that? a particularly weak Last ride won't put anyone over as Invincible. Womens championship: Surely this could have been done backstage. Trish being Interviewed Intimating fat gestures, Lita runs In goes sick job done. Even better would be Snitsky still loitering.... a huge Improvement on Lita hitting a chairshot to the side of a table and Trish messing her hair up In a complete waste of time. WWE Title: For some reason my DVD skips large parts of this match - probably one long sleeper hold just after Booker clears House on the outside, It resumes predictably with JBL well on top and a virtually asleep arena. Some decent "who me?" Inteference from the chief of staff repeatedly killing Booker's momentum at crucial points and boy Is old 5 timer not feeling It here.Raw SS Tag match: For a main event this Is weak, compared with the classic Austin match from the previous year lame. The bickering on Triple H's team is quite amusing but that and the prospect of an HHH/Orton finale should have been left for Monday nights. Benoit Is excellent as always before being cheapshotted out, Snitsky nearly breaks a chair In half some other stuff happens then the RKO to a high pitched shrill. Orton's rubbish music hits to wrap up the show and I couldn't have cared less. Overall nothing worth remembering or rewatching except for the very good Intercontinental match, the bonus match featuring Cena/Carlito fueding over the US title Is fun for nostalgia value - bring back the wordlife Intro. Hey who'd have thought the electric barber chaired one could see Into the future "Carlito doesn't think you're cool - Carlito thinks you're a punk" Ha, how prophetic.

Just another PPV in my opinion. Match one saw Spike Dudley defending the worthless Cruiserweight championship against Chavo Guerrero, Kidman and Rey Mysterio in a very good match. Next up Shelton Benjamin puts his Intercontinental championship on the line against Christian in a very good match as well.Then Kurt Angle, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak and Carlio Caribbean Cool with Jesus in his corner try to defeat John Cena, Eddie Guerrero, RVD and Big Show. This was poor, why Cena even bothered coming to the ring I don't know, because all he done was brawl with Jesus and gave Kurt Angle the F-U. Understandably Carlito couldn't wrestle because of his injured shoulder, but this was terrible!Next up another pointless match takes place, when Lita takes on Trish Stratus. There were no wrestling moves in this match up folks, just Lita beating up Trish, in a terrible brawl. Things get worse yet again as The Undertaker takes on Heidenreich in a 17 minute bore. Then JBL defends his WWE title against Booker T in another boring match (this was all Booker T)But light relief comes in the form of the main event. Triple H, Edge, Gene Skitsky and Batista take on Randy Orton, Maven, Chris Jericho and Chris Benoit in an enjoyable main event. Benoit got eliminated first which p*ssed me off. Earlier on while The Coach was interviewing Maven, Snitsky attacked him, so the match only started with 3 on 4. Maven then came down to help Orton and Jericho, but was smashed in the head with a chair by Snitsky. One good highlight was when Edge tagged both HHH and Snitksy in at the same time. HHH shoved Snitsky and Snitksy pushed HHH over. Batista made the save when he confronted Snitsky. Enjoyable! Orton won when he nailed HHH with an RKO from no where.!Fatal 4 way - 7/10 Benjamin vs Christian - 8/10 Smackdown! elimination match - 4.5/10 Lita vs Trish - 2/10 Booker T vs JBL - 5/'0 Taker vs Heidenreich - 3.5/10 Raw elimination match - 8.5/10

The Survivor Series card looked promising and it didn't fail to deliver. It kicked off with a great cruiserweight match. Here is the review:Match 1: Fatal 4 Way Cruiserweight ChampionshipA very good way to open the show. It doesn't contain anything we haven't seen before but the smoothness of the grapples and reversals and the well executed high-flying spots make this a very entertaining opener. Like every other 4 way match, there are always two wrestlers recovering on the outside, but I'll let it pass this time. Unfortunately Michaels Cole tries his best to ruin the match with his awful commentary; First he incorrectly notes that Chavo and Rey are friends. Then he says Chavo was ROBBED of the title, when Kidman breaks his cover so Spike can get the pin! What the f#ck?Match Rating: 4/5Snitsky confronts Heidenreich backstage and says he likes Heidenreich poems. Hilarious segment. Words can't do it justice.Match 2: Shelton Benjamin vs. Christian. Intercontinental Championship.Nice mat wrestling to start. Shelton outwrestles Christian and shows some nice new moves. Very well built up match where every move make sense in context to the match. Shelton is a total boredom on the mic but I'm willing to accept him as a face only because of this bout. Fantastic performance by both men. It looked predictable and uninteresting on paper but turns out to be one hell of an exiting match. Tomko gets involved but Benjamin fights him off. In a nice booked finish, Benjamin hits the best Exploder Slam (T-bone suplex) I've ever seen for the three-count. Wrestling-wise this is a five star match. Match Rating: 4/5Kurt Angle meets Edge and Eugene backstage. I'm not even going to try to do this segment justice. Awesome!Match 3: Angle, Reigns, Jindrak and Carlito vs. Eddie, Big Show, RVD and Cena. Elimination Match.Cena chases away Carlito to the back so it starts off with four men against three. Eddie's team clearly dominates this match. Reigns and Jindrak are quickly eliminated. With Angle left alone against Cena, Eddie and Show the result is obvious. Not exiting at all, but the booking is logical and every elimination match cannot end with only one survivor.Match Rating: 3/5Maven is interviewed by Coach, who doesn't think he deserves to main event. Maven doesn't get any time to answer because Snitsky comes from behind and destroys him. Snitsky looks and acts like a complete psycho. Another funny segment here.Match 4: Heidenreich vs. The UndertakerHeidenreich's music hits. Heil Boredom! My brother predicts that the first one to pull off a wrestling move will win the match. Could be a long night. Surprisingly good start to this bout. It's going back and forth with no botched moves. Good booking makes the match about as exiting as a match between these two can get. A little too long though. Undertaker wins with the usual.Match Rating: 2/5Bischoff interview backstage. The Bisch looks better in his new haircut. Can we hope Booker T loses a Hair vs. Hair match too?Match 5: Lita vs. Trish. Women's Championship.Match ends in one minute when Lita gets disqualified for using a chair. A story was told to this match as we actually saw a match promo before it started (how many times do we see a promo for a women's match?). Hard to rate.Match Rating: 2/5Match 6: Booker T vs. John Bradshaw Layfield. WWE Championship.Match starts off great. Booker's offense looks more intense than usual and the crowd responds with a "Booker T" chant. I like how Orlando Jordan is used in this match. Booker goes for some classic WCW finishers like the Missile Dropkick and the Harlem Hangover. Nice. Jordan gets involved after the usual referee bump and in the end Bradshaw gets the pin after hitting Booker with the belt in 14:40. Overbooked, yes, but exiting and perfect match length. Bradshaw's best title defense?Match Rating: 3/5Match 7: Orton, Jericho, Maven & Benoit vs. Triple H, Snitsky, Batista & Edge. Elimination Match.Angle: The winning team gets control of Raw for one month. Interesting indeed. Maven is unable to wrestle due to Snitsky's beatdown. All seven men are tagged in early. Match fires up when Benoit takes out Triple H's team but eventually falls victim to the Pedigree. Benoit eliminated. Snitsky almost gets into a fight with Batista and Triple H. I really like the idea of the heel team having disagreements with each other. Batista is the next one to be eliminated and then Snitsky, via disqualification, when he uses a steel chair on a returning Maven. HHH then pins Maven and Edge takes out Jericho with The Spear, making Orton the only man left on his team. Orton gets way too much offense in for my liking. He eliminates Edge with an RKO when Edge accidentally spears HHH. And after reversing a Pedigree, Orton hits another RKO to pick up the win for his team. Certainly not a perfect match, but very entertaining and that's the reason we watch wrestling, right?Match Rating: 4/5The Good: A very solid show with Shelton/Christian as a stand out. Match was close to a 5/5 rating and definitely a match of the year contender. No failing matches, Survivor Series had a good mixture of everything. And last but not least, the backstage segments were hilarious. The Bad: Undertaker/Heidenreich lasted too long. I was hoping for a new WWE Champion. The Elimination Matches (and the p.p.v. itself) were not quite as good as last year, but that's almost too much to ask for.Survivor Series Rating: 4/5
