Monday night Raw saw the “revelation” of Retribution members’ identities. However, the reveal seemed lackluster, drawing massive criticism from fans. Now, we have the reason behind the reveal and it looks like WWE has an intriguing long-term plan! According to a report from PWInsider [https://www.pwinsider.com/article/139757/retributionwwe-update.html?p=1], WWE is focusing on long-term storytelling. As per the report, WWE is going to book Team WWE vs Team Retribution at the upcoming Survivor Series. The report reads, “The word making the rounds over the weekend was that Retribution vs. a WWE team was being targeted as the main event of Survivor Series.” [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Retribution-WWE-SmackDown.jpg] It might seem a bit early to make any speculations, but Survivor Series is known for its traditional ten man tag team match. Previously, Raw and SmackDown competed with each other for brand supremacy. However, WWE has different plans this year. If this report turns out to be true, the match will surely be an interesting one. WWE’s honor will be on the line and we might see warring factions unite against the common enemy. Survivor Series will emanate from the WWE ThunderDome in November. Thus, WWE has adequate time to build multiple interesting storylines. Due to generally negative reviews, WWE must step up their game.

Well, not completely. The members wore masks, but they were easily recognizable, especially to regular NXT viewers. The chaotic fraction’s confirmed members are Dominik Dijakovic, Mia Yim, Mercedes Martinez, and Dio Maddin. One core member still remains unidentified. Maybe for an even bigger surprise? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Eie5QRuX0AAXovC.jpg] It was Mia Yim who revealed that the group had signed WWE contracts. However, the locker room shouldn’t feel safe just because the enemy had joined their ranks. As Dijakovic reiterated Yim’s points, The Hurt Business came out to defend WWE’s honor. After an intriguing staredown, Retribution retreated from the ring. We don’t know if the Survivor Series 2020 rumors are true, but WWE is definitely building up towards a Hurt Business and Retribution feud. It will be interesting to see how other top roster superstars get involved with Retribution. 

After the negatively recieved reveal of Retribution, WWE is under fire. However,
the company has some long-term plans for the fraction.

WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2023 will take place on November 25, 2023. The 37th Annual PLE will be held at the Allstate Arena in the Chicago suburb of Rosemont, Illinois. With the unique WarGames match type set to make its second appearance on the main roster, fans are hyped and excited. The PLE holds a massive significance in WWE with a number of top stars making their debut at the event and it is also home to some of the company's most memorable moments.

Here is everything you need to know about Survivor Series.
<h2>History of WWE Survivor Series</h2>
The creation of Survivor Series can be attributed to the success of WrestleMania III. Generating over $10 million in 1987 with around 78,000 in attendance was a massive milestone for the WWE. This led Vince McMahon to believe in the power of pay-per-view events.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-424620" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201027131113/1420e9a4-wwe-survivor-series-2020-matches-announced-on-monday-night-raw.png" alt="" width="1280" height="720" />

This led the WWE to host the first Survivor Series the same year as WrestleMania III. The event capitalized on the Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant feud. Showcased as a continuation of their match at WM III, this drew massive attention at the time, with 21,000 in attendance for a new PPV event.

Set to be a <em>'Thanksgiving tradition,'</em> the PPVs occurred on Thanksgiving Day or Thanksgiving Eve. Survivor Series is part of WWE's Big Four, consisting of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/wrestlemania/">WrestleMania</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/wwe-summerslam/">SummerSlam</a>, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/wwe-royal-rumble/">Royal Rumble</a>. Today, it is the longest-running PPV behind WrestleMania.
<h2>Some of the biggest stars debuted at Survivor Series</h2>
Survivor Series has had a massive impact on WWE's history. This is because some of the biggest names in the WWE debuted at Survivor Series.

<strong>The Undertaker in 1990:</strong> <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-undertaker/">The Undertaker</a> debuted at Survivor Series as part of Ted Dibiase's team against a squad led by Dusty Rhodes. The Undertaker dominated the match before being counted out. The Deadman fittingly announced his retirement at the same PLE 30 years later.

<strong>Dwayne Johnson in 1996:</strong> On November 17, 1996, Dwayne The Rock Johnson debuted at Survivor Series 10. He was paired with Marc Mero, Jake Roberts, and The Stalker. His team took on Crush, Goldust, Jerry Lawler, and Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Johnson was the sole survivor of the match, claiming victory for his team.

<strong>Kurt Angle in 1999:</strong> The Olympic Gold Medalist, Angle faced Shawn Stasiak in a singles match. Angle won the match by pinfall after hitting  Stasiak with an Angle Slam.

<strong>The SHIELD in 2012: </strong><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/seth-rollins">Seth Rollins</a>, Dean Ambrose, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roman-reigns/">Roman Reigns</a> debuted at Survivor Series 2012. They did not have a match but instead interfered in the triple-threat match. The match was between John Cena, CM Punk, and Rayback. With the no-disqualification stipulation, the interference led to Punk winning.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-282013" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200601230637/shield-debut-survivor-series.jpg" alt="" width="855" height="450" />

<strong>Sting in 2014:</strong> Despite making a massive name for himself across many wrestling promotions, Sting never joined the WWE. This would all change at the main event of Survivor Series 2014. The WCW icon showed by to help Team Cena win against Team Authority.
<h2>Memorable matches at Survivor Series</h2>
Another reason for the massive impact Survivor Series has had on the WWE is due to some of the matches. While the 36 PPVs have had some of the most memorable matches, it also contained one of the most controversial ones. The 11th annual WWE Survivor Series in 1997 would go on to live in infamy thanks to the Montreal Screwjob. Vince McMahon would screw over Bret Hart in his hometown during a title match with Shawn Michaels. By changing the pre-determined finish of the match without telling Hart, this match would be among the most discussed matches in WWE history.

Survivor Series is also known for the memorable matches that have etched themselves into the WWE Universe's minds. Some of them are as follows.

<strong>Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michaels (1992):</strong> The prequel to the Montreal Screwjob. Bret Hart retained his title after making Michaels tap out to the Sharpshooter

<strong>The Undertaker vs. Mankind (1996):</strong> This was the debut of Taker's 'Deadman' gimmick facing off against Mankind. Taker won the match after a brutal piledriver on a steel chair.

<strong>The Rock &amp; John Cena vs. The Miz &amp; R-Truth (2011):</strong> This match would lead up to The Rock vs <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-cena">Cena</a> at WrestleMania 28. The twist ending with The Rock hitting Cena with the Rock Bottom was a massive crowd popper.

<strong>Brock Lesnar vs. Bill Goldberg (2016):</strong> A retelling of their disaster of a match that took place at WrestleMania 20 lasted 90 seconds. No one in the audience could've expected this squash match to be that memorable. Another masterpiece of visual storytelling by the WWE.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-435907" src="https://www.staging.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20161120_SurvivorSeries_goldberg2-d5eed8c3ce31d0d7b5cbe7975a5fc99d-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />

<strong>Brock Lesnar vs. Daniel Bryan (2018):</strong> This match was elevated as Bryan had recently come out of retirement for that year's WrestleMania. After his heel turn to win the WWE Championship from AJ Styles, Bryan found himself against The Beast. Despite his low blow to Lesnar, Bryan could not claim the win and Lesnar walked away with the victory.
<h2><strong>Impressive records of WWE stars at Survivor Series</strong></h2>
There have been some record holders at WWE Survivor Series. These include some of the biggest names in the WWE.

<strong>Dolph Ziggler:</strong> The show-off has had a reputation when it comes to Survivor Series. He has participated in 10 Survivor Series matches and won 7 of them.

<strong>Dwayne Johnson:</strong> After debuting at Survivor Series 1996 at Madison Square Garden, he went on an undefeated streak. During this time, he won his first WWE title at Survivor Series. Out of the 10 Survivor Series matches, he won 8.

Orton has been in 15 Survivor Series matches, out of which he won 9. He was the sole survivor on his team for three years in a row from 2003-2005.

<img class="size-medium wp-image-992857 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Randy-Orton-3-420x315.png" alt="" width="420" height="315" />

<strong>John Cena:</strong> From 2003 till 2011, Cena won every Survivor Series match he's been part of. This included three elimination matches, three title matches, and even the tag match with The Rock. His streak was broken in 2012 during a triple-threat match interrupted by The SHIELD. He appeared in 11 Survivor Series matches, out of which he won 9. This included victory in four traditional Survivor Series elimination matches.

<strong>The Undertaker:</strong> Undertaker was another star who debuted in Survivor Series. He has appeared in 18 Survivor Series matches, out of which he won 13. His last Survivor Series match was in 2015 with Kane against The Wyatt Family.
<h2>WWE Survivor Series 2022 recap</h2>
The most prominent announcement Triple H made ahead of Survivor Series 2022 was the inclusion of WarGames. Dusty Rhodes created the match type, and this would be the debut of the match on the main roster. The 2022 Survivor Series featured two WarGames matches.

One would be Team Belair with Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Mia Yim, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/becky-lynch">Becky Lynch</a>. They would take on and defeat Team Damage CTRL, consisting of Bayley, Dakota Kai, Iyo Sky, Nikki Cross, and Rhea Ripley.

The second WarGames match would be between The Bloodline vs. The Brawling Brutes and two other stars. Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa, and Sami Zayn would defeat Sheamus, Ridge Holland, Butch, Drew McIntyre, and Kevin Owens.
