#1 To not have the crowd boo WWE's creative decision

We all know that WWE is not the only player in the business anymore with AEW's arrival. There is a lot more goodwill for the AEW product at the moment at least from the live audience perspective, because a lot of people believe that WWE's creative decisions in the past have been quite suspect.

A clear example of the same has been what transpired at Hell in a Cell. There was a match between Seth Rollins and The Fiend, which did not end with The Fiend becoming WWE Universal Champion, and the crowd rebelled.

WWE did not want the same to happen at Survivor Series as well. As much as the audience loves Daniel Bryan, I'm pretty certain they would have booed if he had dethroned The Fiend after such a short and limited run.

There would have also been a social media backlash!
