Traditional Survivor Series Match: Team RAW (Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre, Dolph Ziggler, Finn Balor, Bobby Lashley/w Lio Rush and Captain Baron Corbin) vs. Team Smackdown (Captain The Miz, Shane McMahon, Rey Mysterio, Samoa Joe, and Jeff Hardy)

As expected this one began with an all-out melee that unfortunately took out Samoa Joe early. After which the match settled into a pace reminiscent of the women's survivor series contest with an imploding RAW team going over a united SmackDown front, way to highlight the B in the B show.

Similarly, the match took cues from the past two years contests with a table spot to see Braun down for the count. Meanwhile Miz played smart and tactical captain, having Shane pull off another upset on Ziggler. We also got a slew of dream confrontations between the likes of Rey Mysterio and Finn Balor, who got to run wild for some time.

Eventually, a way to put over the contingent of Strowman, McIntyre, and Lashley; the match ended as last years with Shane going down fighting. Nothing great to talk about, though Corbin smartly took out Strowman after the match before he could beat him. Also of importance, Strowman leveled perennial rival Roman Reigns record of four eliminations in one match.

Result: Strowman smashes the best in the world Shane McMahon to win a point for RAW with sole survivors Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre
