Survivor Series 1999 main event

On this day in 1999, Survivor Series was held in Detroit, Michigan. This PPV received a lot of criticism from the fans when a dream match between the top 3 stars of the Attitude Era: The Rock, Triple H & Stone Cold was scrapped. WWF ran an angle where Stone Cold was hit by a car, resulting in him being unable to wrestle in the main event. Big Show replaced Austin in the main event and went on to win his first WWE Championship. This event also marked the WWF debut of one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time, Kurt Angle.

Here are the complete results from the PPV:

- The Godfather, D’Lo Brown & The Headbangers defeated The Acolytes & The Dudleys in an elimination match.
