WWE Survivor Series 2021 Flops and Hits: Becky Lynch’s clever 'screwjob', Roman Reigns teases The Rock during the main event

Honorable mentions from Survivor Series: Kevin Owens and Austin Theory

It would have been a huge mistake to end this Survivor Series feature without mentioning Kevin Owens and Austin Theory. Both these superstars were part of Team RAW for the five-on-five elimination match. As mentioned before, KO abandoned his team during the match. He argued with Rollins over who should start the bout and eventually decided to leave the ring.

Although Seth Rollins eventually won the Survivor Series match for the Red brand, he will remember Owens' actions. Both superstars have been involved in a feud lately. The Visionary can use KO’s actions as ammo, but the latter will be quick to remind how Rollins ‘sacrificed himself’ at Survivor Series last year.

Moreover, Kevin Owens returned to take the credit, establishing that he turned his back on those who have not supported him on the Red brand in the last few weeks. Many believe that this booking also confirms that he will be on his way out when his current contract ends in January.

However, WWE needs to understand that they can’t afford to lose a performer as good as KO. He can play a compelling babyface, a great anti-hero, and an unbeatable heel.

Next comes Austin Theory, who replaced Rey Mysterio in Team RAW at the very last minute. He recently returned to the main roster and is steadily carving a different niche for himself. He is arrogant but subtle and is brilliant at getting under someone’s skin.

Theory reunited with Rollins at Survivor Series, and both superstars worked well together. They might continue their alliance on the Monday night show even after the pay-per-view.

Austin Theory is good at playing the role that has been granted to him on television. But there’s something else that deserves the WWE Universe’s attention. If you go back to watch the men’s five-on-five Survivor Series match, you will notice a spot in which he delivered a dropkick to Sheamus right in the face while elevating himself to The Celtic Warrior’s level.

For context, Sheamus is 6ft 3in tall. If there’s one thing that you will take from the pay-per-view, let it be the fact that it would be a mistake to ignore Theory’s potential.
