Even though Survivor Series has received positive reviews from fans and critics alike, the same cannot be said of the main event of the show featuring Becky Lynch, Shayna Baszler and Bayley.

The triple threat match between the Women's Champions of all three brands failed to live up to the hype, and while it wasn't a bad match, it is being seen as a major disappointment. Unfortunately for the three women involved, even chairman Vince McMahon was reportedly unhappy with the match.

WrestleVotes tweeted: Heard even Vince himself didn’t like the main event last night. Major disappointment.

#3 Reason why Matt Riddle pinned Randy Orton

In one of the biggest shockers of the evening, The Original Bro was able to get a clean pin of Randy Orton during the men's Survivor Series match, thus eliminating the RKO King.

Dave Meltzer and Brian Alvarez explained on WOR that Riddle eliminating Orton was essentially a setup for Baron Corbin to get major heat when he eliminated Riddle:

The whole thing is, is like if you noticed, the guys who they expected the people would like the most were the guys Baron Corbin beat because the idea of that, we can guarantee we’re going to get lots of boos because they are not going to want to see Matt Riddle pinned right there, so we’ll get Baron Corbin pin him. That was a part of the strategy of the match. They booed when Riddle got beat. (H/T: Sportskeeda)
