Many older fans now draw comparisons between the careers of Roman Reigns and Diesel. Both tipped to be the next big thing for the WWE/F in a time where fans are widely sceptical and disillusioned with the way the product is going.

And just as Survivor Series 2013 marked the early signs of Reign's push, Survivor Series 1994 was perhaps the first time fans realised that Vince had decided to go with Big Daddy Cool for his next top star.

The WWE should always be given credit for choosing their plan and sticking to it, and at the time there were more than enough people ready to see Diesel take his place on centre stage. This match was pretty much designed for that, with the 'Two Dudes with Attitude' on the same team but ending the match at each other's throats.

After Michaels began barking orders for Diesel to hold up the already beaten down body of fellow Kliq member Razor Ramon, he went for the Superkick finisher but ended up making contact with his partner instead. This caused Diesel to be eliminated with Razor surviving and winning the match for his team.

Diesel had already performed impressively, eliminating people at will and getting a huge reaction from the crowd along the way. When it came down to the after-match brawl between Shawn and Diesel, fans were noticeably backing the latter, leading the way for Vince to book their Wrestlemania 11 match a few months later.
