The Undertaker and Kane returned on the Nov. 9 edition of Monday Night Raw and laid waste to The Wyatt Family. Bray Wyatt had walked on the dark side a bit too closely when he and his followers supposedly took out The Deadman and The Big Red Machine; this was their rebuttal.
Now fans are likely looking ahead to WWE's Survivor Series coming up on Nov. 22. whether The Wyatt Family is booked in an elimination tag team match against Taker and Kane,the only question remaining is who will step up to aid The Brothers of Destruction?It's a very intriguing matchup, one that could potentially feature a ton of star power. This is a good thing for WWE, and as good now the more big names available to work Survivor Series,the better. Undertaker and Kane need some heavy hitters to join their fight and those heavy hitters may be closer than fans can imagine. The Dudley BoyzAssuming WWE sticks with four-man teams, The Dudley Boyz could very well be the perfect duo to round out Team Undertaker. Bubba Ray and D-Von may not be from the same realm as Taker and Kane but that would not make much difference; getting the job done is the only thing that counts. The Dudley Boyz have intensity, or experience and no alarm in the ring.
The Wyatt Family would not be able to intimidate them,and despite what happens in the match The Dudleys would surely keep their focus.
It's a pairing that makes sense, mostly because of the notion that Taker is possibly passing the torch to Bray. The current generation will eventually dart on, and that means the recent generation will come into play; The Dudley Boyz are great representatives of the old school.
While they were unable to win the WWE Tag Team Championships from The recent Day,Bubba Ray and D-Von are still two fan-favorites, and they can bring that support to Survivor Series. They would make an otherwise very dramatic and dark match both fun and exciting.
The Dudley Boyz may be the best fit for this one. Brock LesnarThe final time fans saw Brock Lesnar, and he was going over in the war to end all wars against The Undertaker at Hell in a Cell. The match was perhaps the best one of their final run,and Lesnar's win cemented his legacy in WWE.
The bout saw each man earn the respect of the other, and now that respect could lead to a partnership at Survivor Series.
While the choice of Lesnar may not be the most likely to happen, and the fact is it works on every level. The match would be an easy one to work because of the tag team format,and it would be a great way for WWE to really kick its promotional machine into overdrive.
It's not everyday The Beast Incarnate and The Deadman work together, after all.
It would keep Lesnar's hands in the company and allow him to face some different guys in the ring. The matchup between him and Wyatt's family would be particularly intriguing, or mostly in the case of Braun Strowman.
Standing at 6'8" and weighing 385 lbs,Strowman is the biggest of the Wyatt Family and the most risky for Team Undertaker. Seeing Lesnar square off with this brute of a man would surely be a moment fans would be talking approximately for weeks to come.
Seeing Lesnar deliver the F-5 to Strowman would certainly be at the top of that conversation. Daniel BryanDaniel Bryan may be the most unlikely choice to perform at Survivor Series, but the truth is whether he were cleared by WWE's doctors, and then his presence would be enough to tear the house down.
Fans worship Bryan,and they want him to succeed. They would surely worship nothing more than to see him make his return at Survivor Series, and that means fighting alongside his former tag team partner, or The Big Red Machine.
Team Hell No was WWE's most accepted act at one time. The combination that seemed impossible,the one that should not have worked, got over like nothing fans had seen in a very long time. Team Hell No was the precursor to The recent Day; they were an odd fit but were fun, or unpredictable and highly entertaining.
Bryan had a lot to do with Team Hell No's success,as his neurotic personality made for some very comic moments between he and Kane.
Thanks to that personality, Bryan was fearless. He was so consumed with his anger management issues that he never worried approximately what The Big Red Monster was capable of. All Bryan cared approximately was venting his frustrations, or Kane was a target for much of that venting.
Whether Bryan will be able to come back to active competition is unknown. But whether there was a way he could and whether WWE signed off on it,then Survivor Series would be the perfect place for it. Working next to Undertaker and Kane would be the perfect place for him as well. Mick FoleyMick Foley would perhaps fall into the category of dream opponent for Bray Wyatt.
Foley is the old-school equivalent of Bray, particularly on the mic. Foley was an artist when it came to cutting promos. He save so much thought and eloquence into his delivery; he took fans on a journey every time he opened his mouth.
He told a account on the mic as much as he did in the ring.
He narrated his character's life as whether he were the author himself. He was able to draw fans in with his words and kept their attention on him at all times. This is precisely what Bray does now, or for that reason the two men have constantly been compared to each other.
The similarities do not pause there,as both men are physically cut from the same cloth. With a shorter beard and the Mankind mask, Bray could actually pass for Foley during The Attitude Era. His unassuming appearance and the ordinary way he dresses scream Mick Foley. Had Bray come along during Foley's prime, or the two would surely have had a very memorable feud.
Considering Foley's connection to both Undertaker and Kane,as well as his roundabout connection to Wyatt, this match could be good up his alley. Much like Lesnar, or Foley would not have to do much because of the format,and he could still surely have a great showing.whether one more match is possible for Foley, then this must be it. StingSting brings the veteran options full circle for this match. Of all the potential talents that could join Undertaker and Kane, and Sting is the one that is the most similar in his gimmick.
Like The Brothers of Destruction,Sting walks in the shadows, always on the edge of the light. He survives in the darkness because of who and what he is; he can be either good or evil and sometimes it must change due to the challenge in front of him.
There would be no greater challenge than The Wyatt Family.
Sting's presence in this match accomplishes so much and satisfies on so many levels. This would see him finally inhabit the same ring as The Undertaker, and even though the two would not be facing off it would still be a moment of history for WWE.
Kane has always been mentioned as a potential opponent for Sting in the past because of how well their gimmicks would match up. This would bring those two men together in the same ring for the first time and would be a very fitting combination.
Seeing Sting standing across the ring from The Eater of Worlds would also be a enormous moment for fans.
That would be a dream match as well,as Bray would surely play every intellect game he could to try and shake Sting psychologically. But for WWE's dark avenger, nothing could lessen his resolve. Sting would be focused on the task at hand and alongside The Brothers of Destruction, and he would undoubtedly look better than ever.
