#4 Better underdog story
Throughout WWE’s history, we have seen countless stories unfold that featured the unexpected victories of the underdogs. Needless to say, they account for some of the best storylines that the WWE Universe has ever witnessed.
The creatives can use this opportunity to book an entire brand as the ultimate underdog who could make history in their first-ever appearance on Survivor Series.
Since Brock Lesnar and The Fiend are not competing in the battle for brand supremacy on Sunday, the risk of the two most celebrated championships being overshadowed was nipped in the bud.
Moreover, NXT has been the most dominant brand in the ongoing invasion storyline and should carry that momentum heading into Survivor Series. Few of the Superstars will also compete at NXT Takeover: WarGames on Saturday. This PPV will surely force a lot of fans to back these Superstars in their match on the next day.
NXT's win would be a pleasant surprise and the fans would certainly get behind the idea of it being a serious competitor in the future editions of Survivor Series.
