#4 Jason Jordan from Team RAW (WWE Survivor Series 2017)

A storyline that will never be finished.

The build-up to Survivor Series 2017 was overwhelmingly exciting, with Shane McMahon's invasion of RAW being a massive success. The event was headlined by the five-on-five Men's Elimination Match and the star power was through the roof. One of the biggest upgrades on that front came on the final RAW before Survivor Series.

General manager Kurt Angle, captain of Team RAW, had to select the final member of the team. He chose his illegitimate son, Jason Jordan, despite the fans completely rejecting him as an upper-tier Superstar. This storyline was not exactly great, nor was Jordan the best choice for the role.

Luckily for them, the former American Alpha member lost his spot on the team following a leg injury at the hands of Bray Wyatt. Jordan was replaced by Triple H, giving the Survivor Series main event a major boost, or so we thought. While the level of talent in the match was unbelievable, the huge 10-man Survivor Series main event was a flop.

The booking and eliminations were questionable at best and the swerve involving Triple H at the end did nothing to enhance anybody. Unfortunately, the Jason Jordan angle never paid off as well, due to his career-ending neck injury at the start of 2018.
