This year's Survivor Series Pay-Per-View was certainly one of the best events hosted by WWE in 2019.

We finally witnessed how NXT, RAW, and SmackDown would fare against each other in cross-branded matches throughout the night.

Non-brand supremacy matchups like Adam Cole vs. Pete Dunne (NXT Championship Match), Brock Lesnar vs. Rey Mysterio (WWE Championship) and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt vs. Daniel Bryan (Universal Championship) also managed to entertain the fans positively.

WWE also put over NXT as a legitimate brand in comparison with RAW and SmackDown. Let us hope that the Black & Gold brand can finally get all the mainstream attention it deserves.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Here are a few interesting observations from last night's Survivor Series Pay-Per-View (24th November 2019):


#3: WWE might have teased a "Four Horsewomen vs. Four Horsewomen" feud at the end of the Pay-Per-View

One of the least interesting aspects about Survivor Series 2019 was its main event that featured a Triple Threat match between all three leading female champions of their respective brands (Bayley, Becky Lynch, Shayna Baszler).

This doesn't mean that the match was bad by any means. It just paled in comparison to the rest of the card and left fans a little confused at the end.

After the match was over, Lynch decided to attack Baszler out of nowhere, and the show closed out to an image of the RAW Women's Champion standing dominantly over the winner.

Some were expecting Ronda Rousey to interfere, but that wasn't the case at all.

Lynch's post-match actions can be seen as a hint for a future clash between WWE and MMA's Four Horsewomen.

It has been speculated since the past year that Charlotte Flair, Lynch, Bayley and Sasha Banks (WWE's Horsewomen) would take on Rousey, Baszler, Marina Shafir & Jessamyn Duke (MMA's Horsewomen) at some point down the road.

After all, Baszler hasn't pinned Lynch yet, and after what happened between them last night, both of these women have unresolved business with each other.

The Road To WrestleMania 36 hasn't officially begun as of now, but at Survivor Series 2019, WWE may have planted the seeds for something special at the Grandest Stage of them All.

#2: "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt's presence is why the 'YES Movement' exists in 2019

Daniel Bryan may have lost his match against "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt at Survivor Series, but the bout is responsible for re-igniting a movement that had once been the most popular thing about WWE a few years ago.

"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt has finally gained his status as an unstoppable entity that needs to be put down, and Daniel Bryan is responsible for painting the picture that way.

The 'YES Movement' always existed for a solid reason. It stood for an underdog's struggle against The Authority in the past. The reason why it did not re-emerge after Daniel Bryan returned was that the 'YES Movement' didn't have a valid reason to exist - The Authority wasn't as rampant as it was before.

But now, the movement has re-surfaced back to the spotlight, not because of The Authority, but because of "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt.

If history tells us anything, it is that Daniel Bryan can overcome the odds even when it seems impossible. Destroying The Fiend sounds like an impossible task, and if there is anyone who can overcome this task, it has to be Daniel Bryan.

Last night's Universal Championship match between the two superstars was only a preview of things to come.

One might think that Bryan's chances of surviving against The Fiend aren't great at all, especially after what happened at Survivor Series 2019. But with a horde of people behind a wrestler like Daniel Bryan, nothing is impossible.

#1: Why Brock Lesnar's future as WWE Champion just became intriguing

The Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar went toe-to-toe with The Master of the 619, Rey Mysterio at last night's Pay-Per-View.

Even though predicting the winner here was an easy task, the match ended up being a small, but effective dose of wrestling and entertainment that one expects from a Brock Lesnar match nowadays.

Both Rey Mysterio and his son, Dominik had a great moment together. But it still doesn't change the fact that Lesnar defeated Mysterio even with the No Holds Barred stipulation playing against his favor.

This seems to have put an end to future Lesnar vs. Mysterio matches as of now. Rey Mysterio got a small moment of revenge against the WWE Champion alongside his son, and that's about it.

Cain Velasquez and Brock Lesnar are likely to face each other again in a rubber match, perhaps next year.

But until that happens, Brock Lesnar doesn't have any sustainable babyface opponents left to fight, unless the writers can find another reason to extend The Beast Incarnate's rivalry with Rey Mysterio.

Then again, WWE could rehash another saga of Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar's shenanigans, but as of now, Rollins' status in front of the fans can tip over at any given night.

The most obvious decision they could make is to not have Lesnar booked for TLC at all. Let us hope that's not the case, and we at least get one last WWE Title match before the year ends.
