Survivor Series (2014) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE. It took place on November 23, 2014 at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri.[1] It was the twenty-eighth annual Survivor Series. WWE offered the event free to new subscribers of the WWE Network.[2] The show was notable for the first appearance of former WCW and TNA superstar Sting on WWE, who had been a long hold out on signing with the company.

Background

Survivor Series featured professional wrestling matches involving different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines that played out on WWE's primary television programs, Raw and SmackDown. Wrestlers portrayed heroes or villains as they followed a series of events that built tension, and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3][4]

On the October 27 episode of Raw, after John Cena, the #1 contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, rejected an offer to join the Authority, Triple H announced a Traditional Survivor Series tag team elimination match, with a team representing the Authority facing a team captained by Cena. Later that night, it was hinted that Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler had joined Team Cena; both Cena and Ziggler saved each other from post-match attacks.[5] On the November 3 episode of Raw, Vince McMahon announced that if Team Authority loses at Survivor Series, the Authority will be ousted from power. Seth Rollins, Kane and Randy Orton joined Team Authority with Rollins as captain, while Ziggler joined Team Cena. Later that night, Orton was ejected from Team Authority after he attacked the rest of the Authority.[6] On the November 10 episode of Raw, Rusev joined Team Authority after the Authority helped him retain his United States Championship against Sheamus. So, Sheamus joined Team Cena along with Jack Swagger and Big Show, while Mark Henry and Ryback joined Team Authority. However, by the end of the episode, Swagger dropped out of Team Cena after being injured by Rollins, while Ryback attacked and left Team Authority after Kane interfered in his main-event match against Cena. Luke Harper applied to join Team Authority by attacking Ziggler.[7] On the November 17 episode of Raw, Harper was confirmed as the final member of Team Authority. While Cena was scouting Ryback to fill out his team, the rest of Team Cena all suffered attacks from Team Authority, which played a part in Ziggler losing his Intercontinental Championship to Harper, and Sheamus dropping out of Team Cena due to injury. Later that night, Erick Rowan and Ryback joined Team Cena.[8] On the November 21 episode of Smackdown, in response to comments made by Cena stating that he felt responsible for his team, Triple H announced that if Team Cena lost, all of Team Cena, except Cena himself, would be fired. Later that night, with Cena absent, the rest of Team Cena were attacked by Team Authority and a chair-wielding Triple H.[9]

On the October 31 episode of SmackDown, Nikki Bella became the number one contender for the WWE Divas Championship by winning a battle royal.[10] On November 10, it was announced on WWE.com that AJ Lee would defend the title against Nikki at Survivor Series.

At Hell in a Cell, Bray Wyatt attacked Dean Ambrose during his Hell in a Cell match against Rollins. On the November 10 episode of Raw, it was announced that Ambrose would face Wyatt at Survivor Series.[7]

On November 17, it was announced on WWE.com that WWE Tag Team Champions Gold and Stardust would defend the titles against The Miz and Damien Mizdow, The Usos, and Los Matadores in a Fatal 4-Way tag team match at Survivor Series.

On November 17, it was announced on WWE.com that the Survivor Series kickoff show would feature the return of Bad News Barrett from injury and Fandango, accompanied by Rosa Mendes, against an unknown opponent.[11]

On November 18, it was announced on WWE.com that Alicia Fox, Emma, Naomi and Natalya would face Paige, Cameron, Layla and Summer Rae in a Divas Traditional Survivor Series elimination tag team match at Survivor Series.
