Almost making the decision to retire Survivor Series in 2010. This is a thing?! I'm a decade late to the party on this ridiculousness. Its one of the big 4, it almost feels a bit thrown together some years but it's really a show I look forward to now they're doing the brand warfare thing. When it's 2 random teams of 5 fighting for no particular reason it blows though. Apparently because the sales for 2009 weren't great, he considered retiring it before the 2010. I'm glad it's stuck around, it's definitely the weakest of the big 4, but it still has its own uniqueness with the 5 on 5 matches. Especially when it's a proper match with appropriate build. - I loved the 2014 tag match, it actually had an important big fight feel to it, plus Sting's debut during the match made it even better. - 2016 too, it felt like a big match with the Brand vs Brand stipulation. - 2019's Men's match too. The match seemed a bit rushed with eliminations, but it helped make Keith Lee look like an absolute star.

One he DID implement that I HATE is the removal of numbered WrestleManias

I get that Summerslam is treated as the 2nd Wrestlemania, but Survivor Series has had more memorable moments that have gone down in history.
