Rumor Roundup: Backstage Notes On Survivor Series, Hit Row’s WWE Release, More

3) Backstage Note On Survivor Series (Part 3)

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, there was a minor freak out backstage during the main event of Survivor Series. This was because they weren’t sure if they were going to run out of time or not since they were planning to go off the air at 11:35 PM (EST).

Here is what Johnson wrote:

There was some worry and what was described to me as a “minor freak out” backstage during the main event of Survivor Series as they were concerned about running out of time for the show. They were slated to go off the air no later than 11:35 PM Eastern and still had the main event still to go. They actually were done with enough time , but in the moment there were some wondering why there was so much time alloted to entrances for the Men’s Elimination match. 

My Take:

  • Sounds like it was a stressful night backstage.

2) Backstage Note On Survivor Series (Part 4)

Mike Johnson of PWInsider has provided some details on who produced each match at Survivor Series.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

Nakamura vs. Priest – Abyss.

Lynch vs. Flair – Tyson Kidd.

Men’s Elimination – Shawn Daivari, Adam Pearce, Jamie Noble (Note from Mike:, I incorrectly originally listed Shane Helms for this bout).

Usos vs. RK-Bro – Shane Helms.

Women’s Elimination – Tyson Kidd, Pat Buck

Reigns vs. E – Michael Hayes.

My Take:

  • Tyson Kidd always seems to be producer of the top Women’s match(es) on the card. At this point, I would be surprised to see anyone else but him produce the women.
