Survivor Series 2004

1. Spike Dudley defeated Rey Mysterio, Billy Kidman, and Chavo Guerrero by pinfall

This was a really good match and it was nice to see them get a little bit of time. Spike was probably the least deserving to win, but at least they were trying to get him over as a heel.

Rating: 3.5

2. Shelton Benjamin defeated Christian by pinfall

I would have thought that these two would be headlining pay-per-views by now, but unfortunately that's not the case. Still, these two can go and it was fun watching them here.

Rating: 3.5

3. John Cena, Eddie Guerrero, Big Show, and Rob Van Dam defeated Kurt Angle, Luther Reigns, Mark Jindrak, and Carlito by pinfall

It's a crime that this was so short. Not that it would have been a classic or anything, but it sure would have been good stuff. At least the opening matches got some time.

Survivors: John Cena, Eddie Guerrero, Big Show

Rating: 2.25

4. Undertaker defeated Heidenreich by pinfall

Again, this was better than expected, but I don't understand why Undertaker won so convincingly. Why put a guy like Heidenreich in there and have him lose? It certainly didn't help his career any.

Rating: 1.25

5. Trish Stratus defeated Lita by disqualification

This was just a storyline, not a match.

Rating: .25

6. JBL defeated Booker T by pinfall

I don't think many people thought Booker was going to win, but this was a pretty good effort from the two veterans. They had a lot more chemistry than you would think.

Rating: 2.75

7. Randy Orton, Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, + Maven defeated Triple H, Edge, Snitsky, + Batista by pinfall

***Match Of The Night***

This was another good Survivor Series main event. Not quite as good as 2003's, but still a really good match that made Orton look like a star.

Survivor: Randy Orton

Rating: 3.5

Well, I liked this show, but I didn't love it. Three matches were at the 3.5 mark, which is good, but it certainly doesn't make for a classic. I doubt you will be bored with this one, with really only one match worth skipping.

Overall Rating: 77%
