There wasn't much in the way of surprises or twists at WWE Survivor Series 2020 but there was a lot that was implied, that was unsaid during the course of the broadcast and we're here to shed light on a few of those things for you.
If you noticed something that we may have missed out on, the comments section below is your space to voice your opinions and share your thoughts about the points in this article and WWE Survivor Series 2020 as a whole.
Fear not, because Rohit Nath shall assume his regular articles, twenty-four hours from now, so this is my 'final farewell' from '5 things that WWE subtly said' as well.
One wrong move ruined his entire WWE career - Watch Now!
#5 The Undertaker is done after Survivor Series 2020 and won't be facing anyone at all, including The Fiend/Bray Wyatt
Trending
Survivor Series 2020 did not feature any interruptions from Bray Wyatt or Randy Orton or anyone who could have entered into a program with the legend at WrestleMania, because the man's career is finally over and done.
Yes, The Undertaker told us several times that his in-ring career was over, but would you blame us for believing that there would be an attack at Survivor Series 2020, going by past experience?
To see the man ride into the sunset certainly brings about a whole bunch of emotions, from it being the end of an era to relief at a man clearly past his prime not tarnishing his ability by mixing it up with people far younger than he is.
Would you have liked to see an old-school superstar like The Undertaker put over a younger Superstar on the way out, as Sting did with Seth Rollins and (well, not really but) Triple H too?
Or are you glad that he had a fantastic ceremony, attended by those closest to him at Survivor Series 2020 without any interference or shenanigans?
#4 Bianca Belair is in line to become a future Champion in WWE very soon indeed
Bianca Belair is the complete package and how! Her work looks good, she carries herself like a Champion, she is an excellent promo and has every ingredient that it takes to win a Championship in WWE. In fact, had she been a heel, she would have been the ideal opponent for Sasha Banks after Bayley for the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship. As it stands, it's only a matter of time before she is rewarded with a title shot by those in WWE management.
If one had to make a bold prediction, it wouldn't be a stretch to say that she would be a Champion before the first-half of 2021 was done and dusted. She's certainly being presented as a top-tier star by WWE and do not be surprised, honestly, if she goes on to win the Royal Rumble and challenge whoever is a top heel with the title at the time. WWE subtly told us they think she is special.
#3 The Miz needs to look strong before he becomes the WWE Champion and hence, he won the battle royal
Many had assumed that it would be Big E that won the dual-branded battle royal that took place during the Kickoff show, but it shouldn't come as a surprise that The Miz won the match, especially if you consider what a valuable asset he has been for WWE over the years.
Not only is he a steady hand, who never gets injured, but he also brings thousands of extra eyeballs to WWE with his reality show on the USA Network, and honestly, that's probably the reason why the company may want him to become the WWE Champion for a brief spell. And to showcase that he's in the same league as say, Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns, the company had him win the battle royal, albeit with some devious means.
However, if he does become the WWE Champion, we have no doubt that he'll only be a transitional Champion, because of the other heavyweights vying for the big prize.
#2 Lana's treatment at Survivor Series 2020 speaks volumes about her place in the current roster
Yes, it was Lana who stood tall at the end of her match at Survivor Series 2020 but do not be fooled for a minute and think that this is the beginning of a push for her, where she becomes a World Champion, dear reader. The fact that she won through a fluke is an indicator that that is her position in the roster, that she is not equal, in WWE's eyes, to Nia Jax or even Bianca Belair. Lana will not suddenly shoot into the limelight and challenge Asuka in competitive matches after Survivor Series 2020.
However, it is all too possible that Lana could team up with a partner (maybe Naomi?) after Survivor Series and go for the tag team Championships.
Maybe because of her current position in the roster, RECKONING invites her to be a part of RETRIBUTION and then the two of them can go after Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler on the RAW after Survivor Series 2020.
#1 This is definitely not the final time that Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre will meet in a WWE ring
Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre will carry the torch for WWE for a really long time to come, and it is very abundantly clear that their rather excellent clash at Survivor Series 2020 is not going to be the last time that they meet in the ring.
In fact, one may be so bold as to say that Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns, who men that fit the archetype of what a WWE Superstar looks like, and prove, every time they step into the ring that they are exemplary workers as well, will main-event a WrestleMania someday.
This may be best gauged from the fact that even though Roman Reigns won the match, he did not do it cleanly. WWE made it a point that Jey Uso interfered in the match, so as to make Drew McIntyre look strong even in defeat.
What was subtly told to us during the match is that the future of the business is in safe hands for now.
A top WWE star is missing in action
