Survivor Series 2019 was an event that focused on the battle for brand supremacy between all three WWE brands - RAW, SmackDown, and NXT.
Ten matches were scheduled for the event, including three separate bouts that took place on the Kickoff Show. Although NXT won't be a part of the Survivor Series event this year, WWE's Black and Gold brand won brand supremacy by winning four of the seven Interbrand matches from last year's Survivor Series pay-per-view.
Let's take a look at what the winners from the 2019 edition of Survivor Series are doing right now, in 2020.

#10: Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode won the 10-team Interbrand Tag Team Battle Royal at WWE Survivor Series 2019 (Preshow)
Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode represented WWE SmackDown last year. The duo is a part of the Blue brand after this year's WWE Draft which concluded in October.
Ziggler and Roode won the 10-team Interbrand Tag Team Battle Royal by eliminating The Street Profits who represented Monday Night RAW during last year's Survivor Series event. While Street Profits are currently the SmackDown Tag Team Champions heading into Survivor Series, Ziggler and Roode technically lost to them via disqualification in a tag team contest during the October 16 episode of the Blue brand.
The Showoff has one of the best Survivor Series records with eight wins and two losses, and his tag team partner, Robert Roode, recently returned to WWE in late September to continue their partnership.
#9: Lio Rush retained the WWE NXT Cruiserweight title by winning an Interbrand Triple Threat Match against Akira Tozawa and Kalisto (Preshow)
Last year, Lio Rush represented NXT and successfully defended the aforementioned championship against RAW's Akira Tozawa, and SmackDown's Kalisto.
Rush was released from his WWE contract as part of the budget cuts brought upon due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
Earlier this month, Lio Rush was announced as a participant in NJPW's Super J-Cup tournament. Aside from his music projects, Lio Rush is also going to play a role in the new Power Rangers movie.
#8: The Viking Raiders defeated The New Day and The Undisputed Era in a Champions Triple Threat Tag team match (Preshow)
The Viking Raiders represented WWE RAW as their tag team champions and were able to defeat SmackDown's New Day and NXT's Undisputed Era at Survivor Series 2019.
While New Day will be the ones representing RAW against SmackDown's Street Profits this year, The Viking Raiders are currently inactive on the Red brand as a tag team. This can be attributed to Ivar undergoing neck surgery. Meanwhile, Erik of The Viking Raiders had been a part of the RAW Underground scene before getting involved in 24/7 title shenanigans on the Red brand.
#7: Team WWE NXT (Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai, and Toni Storm) won the five-on-five-on-five Women's Survivor Series Triple Threat elimination match
The women of WWE NXT received mainstream attention in 2019 as three of the five women - Candice LeRae, Io Shirai, and Rhea Ripley - from the NXT team ended up as the remaining survivors in the five-on-five-on-five Women's Survivor Series Triple Threat elimination match.
LeRae, Shirai, Ripley, and Toni Storm are still part of the NXT brand as of now. Io Shirai is the current WWE NXT Women's Champion.
Meanwhile, it is only fitting that Bianca Belair will be a part of Team SmackDown at Survivor Series 2020.
#6: Roderick Strong defeated AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura in a Champions Triple Threat match at WWE Survivor Series 2019
Roderick Strong represented the Black and Gold brand as the NXT North American Champion and managed to defeat RAW's United States Champion, AJ Styles, and SmackDown's Intercontinental Champion, Shinsuke Nakamura, at last year's Survivor Series event.
Interestingly, Nakamura was flanked by Sami Zayn at Survivor Series 2019, and it is Zayn who will be representing WWE SmackDown as the Intercontinental Champion this year.
Roderick Strong is still a part of WWE NXT alongside his fellow Undisputed Era members.
#5: Adam Cole retained his WWE NXT Championship against Pete Dunne
As recognized by WWE, Adam Cole went down in history books as the longest-reigning NXT Champion at 403 days, only to lose the title to Keith Lee at The Great American Bash.
Last year, the leader of The Undisputed Era defended his NXT Title in a match against Pete Dunne, in which the former prevailed as the victor.
Pat McAfee and Adam Cole's high-stakes rivalry has turned into a war between factions recently. Interestingly, Cole's opponent from last year's Survivor Series event - Pete Dunne - has joined McAfee's new faction on WWE NXT.
#4: 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt retained the WWE Universal title by defeating Daniel Bryan
Not only did The Fiend and Daniel Bryan's feud end with Bray Wyatt's evil alter-ego dominating his rival, but their WWE Survivor Series encounter in 2019 also ended with The Fiend earning a victory.
While both Daniel Bryan and Bray Wyatt were a part of SmackDown at the time of their Survivor Series clash in 2019, the latter has been drafted to RAW as the top pick on Night Two of the 2020 Draft.
Currently, The Fiend/Bray Wyatt is involved in one of the most popular and fascinating storylines of 2020 alongside WWE RAW's demonic queen, Alexa Bliss.
#3: Team WWE SmackDown (Roman Reigns, Braun Strowman, King Corbin, Mustafa Ali, and Shorty G) won the five-on-five-on-five Men's Survivor Series Triple Threat elimination match
Back when Roman Reigns was the babyface leader of the Blue brand, he ended up as the sole survivor in the traditional Survivor Series match in 2019, thus earning a victory for WWE SmackDown.
Roman Reigns is currently the Universal Champion and the biggest Superstar from the regular roster, who is set to face WWE Champion Drew McIntyre in a Champion vs. Champion match at Survivor Series 2020.
Shorty G recently decided to call himself by his previous name, Chad Gable, on SmackDown. King Corbin also remains a part of the Blue brand while Braun Strowman was drafted to WWE RAW in October.
Mustafa Ali turned heel in 2020 by revealing himself as the SmackDown hacker and the leader of the RETRIBUTION faction on RAW.
#2: Brock Lesnar retained the WWE Championship by defeating Rey Mysterio in a No Holds Barred match
Before Dominik Mysterio became a WWE Superstar, he was involved in his father's high-stakes match against Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series 2019. The father-son duo of Rey and Dominik Mysterio had a great moment together, and most fans thought that it was an entertaining match from start-to-finish.
In the end, The Beast Incarnate prevailed as the victor, only to lose his WWE title to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36 several months later.
WrestleMania 36 was the last appearance of Brock Lesnar in WWE. In August 2020, Lesnar’s merchandise had been removed from WWE Shop. Since then, it has been reported that his WWE contract expired after WrestleMania.
Although Brock Lesnar is technically a free agent, there is a great chance of him re-signing with Vince McMahon's promotion in the future.
#1: Shayna Baszler defeated Becky Lynch and Bayley in a Champions Triple Threat match at WWE Survivor Series 2019
The main event of last year's Survivor Series event saw Shayna Baszler forcing Bayley to submit in order to win the Interbrand clash. Baszler was the WWE NXT Women's Champion at that point in time, while SmackDown's Bayley and RAW's Becky Lynch were the Women's Champions of their respective brands.
Eventually, Baszler and Lynch clashed for the RAW Women's Championship down the road, even if The Queen of Spades was unsuccessful in her attempts to dethrone The Man.
As of now, Shayna Baszler is a Women's Tag Team Champion alongside Nia Jax. Both of them will be representing Team RAW at WWE Survivor Series 2020.
