Survivor Series was a mixed bag as we saw some good matches, while others almost put us to sleep and were unexciting. We saw some surprises, like Charlotte Flair's assault on Ronda Rousey and her heel turn, as well as Daniel Bryan not being squashed by Brock Lesnar, as the two champs put on a great show in the final match of the night.
RAW ended the night with a clean sweep, winning all six matches on the main card (WWE aren't counting SmackDown's sole victory in the tag team elimination match on the pre-show of Survivor Series) and there could be some repercussions on SmackDown Live following Survivor Series.
RAW also got a huge victory in the men's elimination match which also saw some in-fighting between the RAW team, namely Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre, which will have serious consequences in the near future.
Here are the 5 possible fallouts from the 2018 Survivor Series:
#5 McIntyre forms another big heel faction?
One thing that was clearly obvious from Survivor Series and the men's 5-on-5 Survivor Series elimination match is that Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre are going to feud in the coming months, and that one of the two will become the Universal champion after Brock Lesnar.
McIntyre and Strowman battled each other despite being in the same team at Survivor Series, and the picture of Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley at the end of the match probably indicates that the trio, along with Dolph Ziggler, could form a strong heel faction on RAW.
Strowman and Corbin are most likely to have a match soon, maybe at TLC next month, and he could use his powers as acting GM to include McIntyre in the match to make a triple threat or 2-on-1 match. This could make The Monster Among Men look incredibly strong if he does win the match, which could be the build needed to finally defeat Lesnar for the Universal title.
Lesnar showed in his match against Bryan that he had vulnerabilities which WWE could use and highlight and Strowman could capitalise on in the future.
#4 Nia Jax to embrace the heat she's receiving from the audience
In the women's 5-on-5 Survivor Series elimination match, Nia Jax dominated every other woman in the match-up as she was the sole survivor of the match as she eliminated SmackDown's Asuka, to give Team RAW the win.
Jax arrived at the ring to a chorus of boos as the WWE Universe were unimpressed at Jax's punch on Becky Lynch which resulted in Lynch being injured for her dream showdown against Ronda Rousey.
She embraced the boos and incensed the WWE Universe even more with her heelish ways. It looks like Nia will use the heat she has on her from the WWE Universe to build up her match against Ronda Rousey, which will happen sometime in the future, possibly at TLC, next month, and become the meanest heel on the WWE roster.
#3 Daniel Bryan to become the baddest heel on the WWE roster
... talking about heels, Daniel Bryan made a surprise heel turn last week on SmackDown, and displayed some of his arrogant heel attitude prior to the match against Lesnar at Survivor Series where he mocked and goaded the Universal champion.
That wasn't a smart move by Bryan as he was tossed and thrown around by The Beast only to recover and put up a battle, thanks to another low blow, which brought the big man down.
It seems like WWE are going to go with the Bryan vs Styles feud and we could see Bryan up the ante with his viciousness and get the boos of the crowd. On Sunday, he showed that he could go in the ring even with a big man like Lesnar and put on a great spectacle.
But he also showed that he could be the cocky, arrogant heel, which has been missing in AJ Styles' feuds in the last year or so. We could see Bryan use a lot of underhand tactics to get victories over Styles which makes this feud an interesting one.
Prepare yourself for more low blows, chair shots, and referee distractions/knockdowns by Bryan on SmackDown.
#2 Charlotte and Becky to team up?
At Survivor Series, we saw one of the most eagerly awaited match-ups in a long time when RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey, faced SmackDown's Charlotte Flair, who replaced SmackDown Women's Champion Becky Lynch this past week.
For most part of the match, Rousey and Flair put on a great show, with both Superstars showing off their repertoire of moves and skills, much to the delight of the WWE Universe, as "This is awesome" chants broke out. The Los Angeles crowd was loving every bit of the action, before Charlotte's surprise turn as she assaulted Rousey with kendo sticks and then a chair.
What could this mean for Charlotte and SmackDown, as well as the SmackDown Women's title picture? Becky Lynch is one of the meanest heels on WWE television at the moment, and turning her babyface at the moment doesn't seem like a good idea at the moment. We could maybe see Charlotte and Becky Lynch team up to dominate the SmackDown women's division before one of them turns face and feuds further down the road.
#1 Shane McMahon gets fired/quits as SmackDown Commissioner
SmackDown put on a terrible showing at Survivor Series, and that could have some repercussions in the future, or as early as this Tuesday, on SmackDown Live. Shane McMahon, who was once again the sole survivor for Team SmackDown, second year running, could maybe face some flak for not getting the results against RAW.
We could maybe see Vince McMahon surprisingly make an appearance on SmackDown on Tuesday and have a talk with his son, Shane, regarding SmackDown's poor performance at Survivor Series.
After being drubbed by RAW, the Chairman of WWE may fire his son as commissioner, or Shane himself might quit and there could maybe be a new commissioner announced soon. This could freshen things up on SmackDown, which has been rather dull lately, apart from Daniel Bryan's heel turn and subsequent victory against AJ Styles a week before Survivor Series.
