The Origin and Evolution of Survivor Series

Created by WWE (then WWF) and Vince McMahon, the inaugural Survivor Series took place on November 26, 1987, at the Richfield Coliseum in Ohio. Conceived to counter-program Jim Crockett Promotions’ NWA Starrcade on Thanksgiving Day, the original concept focused heavily on tag team wrestling while capitalizing on the massive rivalry between Hulk Hogan and André the Giant following WrestleMania III.

Held on Thanksgiving Day for its first four years, the event’s signature match format evolved across distinct eras:

The Traditional Elimination Era (1987–2021): Classic 4-on-4 or 5-on-5 tag team matches where wrestlers are eliminated via pinfall, submission, count-out, or disqualification until sole “survivors” remain.
Brand Supremacy (2016–2021): Inter-promotional warfare pitting Raw, SmackDown, and briefly NXT against one another for dominant brand status.
The WarGames Era (2022–Present): Under new creative leadership, the event was rebranded as Survivor Series: WarGames, introducing side-by-side rings enclosed in a giant steel cage.

Iconic Moments & Major Debuts

Survivor Series has historically served as the launching pad for legendary careers and industry-altering storylines. Notable superstar debuts include The Undertaker (1990), The Rock (1996), and Kurt Angle (1999).

Historic milestones include:

1990: The televised debut of The Undertaker as Brother Love’s mystery partner.
1997: The infamous Montreal Screwjob involving Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels.
2001: Team WWF defeats The Alliance (WCW/ECW) to end the Invasion storyline.
2002: The debut of the inaugural Elimination Chamber match inside Madison Square Garden.
2011: The Rock and John Cena join forces in the ring for the first time.
2020: The Undertaker’s “Final Farewell” ceremony, exactly 30 years after his debut.
