WWE Survivor Series November 24, 2019 Allstate Arena Chicago, IL
*The Undisputed Era [Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish], The Street Profits [Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins] & War Raiders [Erik & Ivar] d. The Revival [Scott Dawson & Dash Wilder], Drew McIntyre, Sheamus & The Usos [Jimmy & Jey Uso] in a Survivor Series Match For several weeks on NXT, their had been an "invasion" of sorts by several WWE talents into the developmental brand. This had been spearheaded by The Miz, who had won the NXT Championship, and The Revival, who had won the tag team championships. NXT had responded in kind by invading several WWE shows in recent weeks, leading to a collision between the two brands at Survivor Series. The first match saw the tag teams of the brand compete in a traditional Survivor Series match. - Montez Ford d. Dash Wilder by Pinfall - Jey Uso d. Angelo Dawkins by Pinfall - Drew McIntyre d. Montez Ford by Pinfall - Ivar d. Sheamus by Pinfall - Erik & Ivar Were Disqualified - Kyle O'Reilly d. Jimmy Uso - Montez Ford d. Scott Dawson - Drew McIntyre d. Montez Ford - Bobby Fish d. Jey Uso by Pinfall - Kyle O'Reilly d. Drew McIntyre by Pinfall Survivors: The Undisputed Era
*Matt Riddle d. Baron Corbin by Submission to Retain the North American Title The Miz's partner/henchman Baron Corbin had also been a part of the invasion of NXT, helping his counterpart win the NXT Title. COrbin himself attempted to wrestle away more NXT gold by challenging the Original Bro, Matt Riddle, for the NXT North American Championship. Despite having the power and size advantage, Corbin struggled against the unique mix of Riddle's high flying and submission based offense. Corbin attempted to hit Riddle with the End of Days, only for Riddle to lock in the modified sleeper called the Bro-Mission to choke Corbin out and pick up the victory.
*Sasha Banks, Charlotte Flair, Ember Moon, Asuka & Lacey Evans d. Shayna Baszler, Bianca Belair, Dakota Kai, Toni Storm & Io Shirai in a Survivor Series Match For the most part, the women of NXT had been exempt from the invasion from the main roster. This didn't stop the WWE women from teaming up to take on some of the best females from the NXT roster in a traditional Survivor Series match. - Shayna Baszler d. Lacey Evans by Submission - Shayna Baszler Was Counted Out - Ember Moon d. Dakota Kai by Pinfall - Asuka d. Toni Storm by Submission - Bianca Belair d. Ember Moon by Pinfall - Io Shirai d. Asuka by Pinfall - Sasha Banks d. Io Shirai by Pinfall - Charlotte Flair d. Bianca Belair by Pinfall Survivors: Charlotte Flair & Sasha Banks
*Keith Lee d. Pete Dunne by Pinfall to Win the International Championship Despite having started in NXT, Keith Lee had easily aligned himself with the WWE faction of the Invasion. Thus, he challenged Pete Dunne to win the International Championship, the only title that was largely split between the two competing brands. The Bruiserweight of NXT held his own against the Limitless One, but Lee countered an attempted Bitter End with a Big Bang Catastrophe before following up with a Spirit Bomb for the win and title victory.
*Rhea Ripley d. Becky Lynch & Bayley in a Triple Threat Match The three women's champions of WWE met in a match for "brand superiority," but it was clear that Becky Lynch and Bayley, with the history between them, were much more concerned with each other than they were concerned the NXT Women's Champion, Rhea Ripley. This allowed the Australian to pick her spot and catch Bayley off guard with a Riptide, pinning the Women's World Champion to pick up the upset victory.
*Cesaro d. WALTER w/Imperium by Disqualification to Retain the World Heavyweight Championship The undefeated WALTER challenged Cesaro for the World Heavyweight Championship, in what many called a battle for "European Dominance" given the Swiss Superman's origins. WALTER also had Barthel and Eichner at his disposal during the match, but they were quickly sent to the back by the referee when they attempted to interfere. After a hard hitting back and forth match, it appeared as if Cesaro might pull out the victory, only to be attacked by Seth Rollins, who was still stinging from his loss of the title the previous month. This resulted in Cesaro winning, but only by disqualification, effectively keeping WALTER undefeated (or at the very least, unpinned).
*Bray Wyatt d. The Velveteen Dream by Submission The oddball star Velveteen Dream had "crashed" the Firefly Fun House on an Episode of Raw as a result of NXT's invasion, leading to a confrontation with Bray Wyatt. In a short, but unique match, the "Mr. Rogers" persona of Wyatt was able to deal with the Dream relatively easily, hitting Sister Abigail to pick up the win.
*Shinsuke Nakamura w/Paul Heyman d. Rey Mysterio w/Dominik Mysterio by Pinfall to Retain the WWE Championship The only match to take place at Survivor Series without any implications to the WWE vs. NXT conflict was the WWE title match between Rey Mysterio and champion Shinsuke Nakamura. The legendary luchadore had earned a title shot against the King of Strong Style by winning a battle royal on Smackdown, and also had his son Dominik accompany him to ringside for moral support, and to counter any potential interference by Paul Heyman. The international confrontation went back and forth several times, until the referee was accidentally hit from a springboard dropkick from Mysterio after Nakamura moved him into the way. Mysterio then got Nakamura into position and hit the 619. However, before he could hit the Frogsplash for a potential title victory, Brock Lesnar suddenly came from the back. Lesnar was determined (as he would later explain in a promo) that he would be the only man to end Nakamura's title run. Lesnar attacked Mysterio, much to the shock of Dominik, who tried to save his father from an F5, only to be swatted away. Lesnar then stocked off as Nakamura slowly made the cover of Rey and the ref came to, counting the fall.
*Adam Cole, Johnny Gargano, Tomasso Ciampa, Damian Priest, Finn Balor & Roderick Strong d. Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, & The Miz in a WarGames Match The final conflict between WWE and NXT would take place in the Dreaded War Games, the two ring steel construct that had become a mainstay in the Survivor Series season in recent years. Team WWE, unlike Team NXT, was not on the same page, featuring rivals like Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn as well as Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, with all of them resenting The Miz for "dragging them into this mess." Added to the mix was Finn Balor, who had defected from WWE to NXT, becoming the sixth man for their WarGames team. NXT was impressive in their victory, with Balor scoring the final pinfall after hitting a Coup de Grace on The Miz after the rest of Team WWE had abandoned him in the War Games cage, leaving him to his fate. Team NXT then celebrated to close the show. |

NXT Takeover: Atlanta II December 1, 2019 State Farm Arena Atlanta, GA
*Swerve Strickland w/Hit Row d. Damien Priest by Pinfall The wrestling musical act known as Hit Row, consisting of B-Fab, Top Dolla and Ashantae Adonis, along with their "star hitmaker" Swerve Strickland had tride to recruit the Archer of Infamy, Damien Priest, into their ranks in recent weeks. Priest however refused them, leading to this singles match. Priest controlled much of the match and seemed poised for a win, but a distraction from Adonis on the outside led to Strickland using a steel chain around his fist behind the referee's back to KO Priest. Swerve then hit a second rope leg drop to the back of Priest's head for added effect, getting the pinfall victory.
*The Kabuki Warriors [Asuka & Kairi Sane] d. Dakota Kai & Tegan Nox by Pinfall to Retain the Women's Tag Team Titles In a standard title defense, the Kabuki Warriors successfully defended their Tag Team Titles against the team of Dakota Kai and Tegan Nox, with Sane pinning Nox following an Insane Elbow from the top rope.
*WALTER w/Imperium d. Dominik Dijakovic by Pinfall The European trio Imperium had offered Dominik Dijakovic a spot within their ranks, despite him being a "lowly American". Dijakovic had declined, standing up for America and challenging the leader of Imperium WALTER to a one on one contest instead. The chop heavy match saw both man batter the other, but WALTER remained unbeaten within NXT, hitting a massive short arm clothesline followed by a top rope splash to pick up the win.
*DIY [Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa] d. The Revival [Scott Dawson & Dash Wilder] in a 2 out of 3 Falls Match to Win the NXT Tag Team Titles In the wake of the WWE invasion of NXT, longtime rivals and former tag team partners Johnny Gargano and Tomasso Ciampa had reunited to reform DIY, hoping to wrestle away the NXT Tag Team Titles from their old rivals The Revival. The two teams squared off in an epic two out of three falls match for the belts, which saw Dawson and Wilder take the early lead after hitting Ciampa with a Spike Piledriver, exacerbating his previously existing neck issues. The Revival tried to keep Ciampa in their corner, but Ciampa managed to roll up Wilder in a small package to even the score. Eventually Gargano made the hot tag and both teams fought in the middle of the ring, before Ciampa and Gargano caught Dawson with the Meet in the Middle for a victory and reclaiming the Tag Team Titles.
*Matt Riddle d. Kyle O'Reilly by Pinfall to Retain the North American Title Matt Riddle had reignited his on again, off again feud with the Undisputed Era, facing against Kyle O'Reilly for the North American championship. O'Reilly relied on outside interference from his tag partner, Bobby Fish, to gain an early advantage, but Riddle was able to fight off the 2 on 1 to take advantage when the referee went down. This brought out the third member of Undisputed Era, Roderick Strong, who attempted to use the North American Championship belt as a weapon, only to accidentally hit O'Reilly. Riddle then hit the Floating Bro to pick up the win off the miscommunication.
*Rhea Ripley d. Shayna Baszler in a Submission Match to Retain the NXT Women's Championship After winning the NXT Women's Championship in the summer, Rhea Ripley hadn't heard much from the Queen of Spades, Shayna Baszler, until a few weeks prior to this Takeover, when Baszler returned and viciously attacked the champion, setting up this title rematch. Baszler demanded the match be made a submission match, giving her a seeming advantage over Ripley. However Rhea's power was able to upset the ground and pound style of Baszler, and eventually Ripley got Baszler locked in her own submission, the Prison Trap, to score the tap out victory. Afterwards, Baszler shook Rhea's hand and raised it in victory as a sign of respect.
*Adam Cole d. Finn Balor & The Miz in a Triple Threat Match to Win the NXT Championship With the Miz having been pinned by Finn Balor the previous week at the Survivor Series, the planned match between he and Adam Cole for the NXT Championship was made into a triple threat match at the last minute by NXT General Manager William Regal. This nearly worked into the Prince's favor, as Balor came close to beating the Miz for the title, only for Cole to break up a pin at the very last moment. Cole then hit Miz with a Last Shot while Balor was on the outside to steal the victory and regain the NXT Title to close the show.

Note: As is with many other rebookings of this timeline, I am going to be ignoring COVID-19, as if it never happened. I recognize that definitely interrupts the realism aspect of things, but whatever. I am also going to be somewhat loose with the massive number of releases that take place during this time. Some will still go through, others will not happen at all, some will happen at later points in time. Basically a case by case basis. As for where events take place during the "Thunderdome" era, I have already planned those out in advance.
WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders & ChairsDecember 15, 2019 Target Center Minneapolis, MN
*Keith Lee d. Bobby Lashley w/MVP by Pinfall in a Chairs Match to Win the United States Title After months of feuding between them, including an incident where Lashley helped Braun Strowman defeat Lee for the International Title, The Limitless One and the Almighty met in a Chairs Match for the United States Title. A hard hitting affair followed, with both big men breaking out several power moves in an attempt to win the gold. In the end, Lee got the final word on Lashley for now, hitting a Spirit Bomb through two set up Chairs to get the pinfall victory and regain the United States Title.
*The Hardy Boyz [Matt & Jeff Hardy] d. Drew McIntyre & Sheamus, Los Lotharios [Angel Garza & Humberto Carrillo] w/Zelina Vega, The Club [Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson], The Revival [Scott Dawson & Dash Wilder] & Heavy Machinery [Tucker & Otis] in a Tag Team Turmoil Match to Win the WWE Tag Team Titles The duo of Drew McIntyre and Sheamus were set to defend the WWE Tag Team Titles in a Tag Team Turmoil match, where they would have to survive several other teams in a row in order to successfully retain their belts. Despite surviving both Los Lotharios and Heavy Machinery at first, The Revival were the ones to end their run as champions, before Dawson and Wilder themselves were beaten via a Magic Killer by Gallows and Anderson. However The Club couldn't celebrate as champions just yet, as a mystery team added to the match turned out to be the returning Hardy Boyz. Matt and Jeff stunned the crowd and the Club, with Matt hitting Anderson with a Twist of Fate followed by a Swanton from Jeff giving the Hardys the surprise victory and the tag team titles.
*Brock Lesnar d. Dominik Mysterio w/Rey Mysterio by Pinfall After Brock Lesnar cost Rey Mysterio the WWE Chapionship (in his continuing quest to be the one to beat Shinsuke Nakamura), he was challenged to a one on one match by, of all people, Rey's son Dominik. While Rey tried to tell his son not to fight this match, Dominik insisted, even attacking Lesnar in the backstage area with a baseball bat on an episode of Raw to gain an advantage. Lesnar mauled Dominik in the early going, but the younger Mysterio availed himself well, even kicking out of a series of German Suplexes and managing to fight out of the F5 at one point. Eventually Lesnar put away Dominik with an F5, but then shook his hand and gave him a pat on the back as a sign of respect before leaving the ring.
*Alexa Bliss & Liv Morgan d. The Kabuki Warriors [Asuka & Kairi Sane] by Pinfall to Win the Women's Tag Team Titles THe Kabuki Warriors found themselves defending the Women's Tag Team Titles against former champions Alexa Bliss and Liv Morgan, mostly due to the former champions earning singles victories over the respective champions on episodes of Smackdown. Despite blatant interference on the part of the challengers, it appeared as if Asuka and Sane would still retain the titles, as Asuka locked Morgan in the Rising Sun submission. However the referee was down, and suddenly the champs were attacked by another former pair of champions in Nia Jax and Tamina, who laid out Asuka and then left without any explination. This allowed Morgan to sneak away with the pinfall and regain the belts for her and the Goddess.
*Jinder Mahal w/Indus Sher d. Cesaro in a Tables Match to Win the World Heavyweight Championship AFter winning the King of the Ring tournament, Jinder Mahal was named the #1 contender to the World Heavyweight Championship, challenging Cesaro for the title in a Tables Match. The Swiss Superman easily controlled the Modern Day Maharajah for most of the match, but interference from Indus Sher kept Cesaro from putting Mahal away. In the end, Cesaro set up Mahal for a Zurich Bomb from the second rope through a set up table, when Seth Rollins' music played, distracting him. Mahal took advantage of the distraction to show Cesaro off the top rope and through the table, scoring the huge upset and unexpectedly winning the World Heavyweight Championship.
*AJ Styles d. Sami Zayn by Pinfall to Retain the Intercontinental Title In recent weeks Sami Zayn had taken to complaining about a conspiracy against him, claiming that WWE was actively trying to hold him down and deny him "what he had earned" in his career. Intercontinental Champion AJ Styles challenged Zayn on that front, putting his title on the line against the "paranoid nutjob." A hard fought match insued that saw the referee accidentally knocked out. Right after this, Zayn hit a Blue Thunder Bomb that might have got the pinfall, but with the referee down no fall was counted. Zayn then loudly complained about the "conspiracy" before turning around right into a Styles Clash from the champion, who pinned Zayn for the victory.
*Roman Reigns d. Shinsuke Nakamura w/Paul Heyman by Disqualification [Nakamura Retains the WWE Championship] After several months without a world championship, Roman Reigns challenged Shinsuke Nakamura for the WWE title, alarming Nakamura's manager/translator Paul Heyman in the process (as Heyman admitted that Reigns was the most dangerous man in WWE, to the chagrin of Nakamura). The two had a highly competitive match, and it appeared that Reigns might pull out the victory, when he was suddenly attacked by the House of Black, who had been cryptically making threats to the WWE roster for several weeks leading into TLC. This gave Reigns the disqualification victory, but kept the title on Nakamura.
*Bayley d. Charlotte Flair in a TLC Match to Retain the Women's World Championship The main event saw Charlotte Flair challenge the Role Model Bayley for the Women's World Championship in a TLC match. With Sasha Banks supposedly banned from the arena by WWE co-director Triple H, it appeared that Flair would finally get the fair fight that she had been hoping for from Bayley for several months. However Banks presence would be felt, as she appeared at ringside, having purchased a ticket and "arriving late" to the venue. Banks didn't physically get involved, but her presence in the front row distracted Charlotte into shoving her, drawing her attention at a crucial moment that allowed Bayley to KO the Queen with a chair shot straight to the head. Bayley then hit a massive suplex through a nearby table to take out Charlotte before climbing the ladder and retrieving her title to remain champion, bringing Sasha into the ring and celebrating with her to close the show. |

NXT Takeover: Houston January 25, 2020 Toyota Center Houston, TX
*Bianca Belair d. Toni Storm & Kay Lee Ray by Pinfall to Earn a Shot at the NXT Women's Championship The EST of NXT was setting her sights on becoming the new NXT Women's Champion, but to do so she would first have to defeat Toni Storm and Kay Lee Ray, both of whom had been eliminated from a battle royal controversially in which the #1 contender was determined. Despite Storm and Ray's best efforts, Belair continued to impress as she hit Ray with the Kiss of Death to pick up the win and earn the future title shot.
*Imperium [Fabian Eichner & Marcel Barthel] d. British Strong Style [Trent Severn & Tyler Bate] by Pinfall The European tandem of Imperium, under the guidance of the Ring General WALTER, faced off against another preeminent team from Europe in British Strong Style. To the surprise of many, Severn and Bate seemingly had the match won, as WALTER had been banished from ringside by order of NXT General Manager William Regal. However before they could put away Eichner, a third man came out of the crowd and distracted Bate. This allowed Imperium to hit a modified version of the Hart Attack, which saw a spinebuster from Barthel with a second rope clothesline from Eichner, to pick up the win.
*Braun Strowman w/MVP d. Hit Row [Swerve Strickland, Top Dolla & Ashantae Adonis] w/B-Fab in a 3 on 1 Handicap Match for the International Championship International Champion Braun Strowman showed up to Takeover Houston, looking for a fight. He did so while interrupting antics from the stable Hit Row, leading to an impromptu 3 on 1 Handicap Match between them. Swerve Strickland quickly thought better of the encounter and bailed, leaving Top Dolla and Ashantae Adonis to deal with the Monster Among Men, who quickly flattened both of them with a running powerslam each to retain his title.
*The Street Profits [Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford] d. DIY [Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa] by Pinfall to Win the NXT Tag Team Titles Former tag team champions The Street Profits battled against DIY in this face vs face matchup, and held their own against the legendary team of Gargano and Ciampa. However the old issues between the partners reared their ugly head this time. With Ciampa in trouble, he was desperately trying to reach for a tag against Gargano, only for Johnny Wrestling to abandon Ciampa and walk out without a word said. This left Ciampa to be taken out by the Profits, who took advantage. Montez Ford hit a splash off the top rope to pick up the win and regain the NXT Tag Team Titles.
*Rhea Ripley d. Candace LeRae by Pinfall to retain the NXT Women's Championship Candace LeRae had won the afore mentioned battle royal on NXT to earn a shot at NXT Women's Champion Rhea Ripley, albeit controversially after reentering the match after being eliminated, but with no referee having seen her elimination. Her underhanded tactics wouldn't work against Ripley though, who had little difficulty in dispatching LeRae with the Riptide to retain her title.
*Finn Balor d. Adam Cole by Pinfall to Win the NXT Championship For several weeks leading into the Takeover, Adam Cole had been engaged in a Twitter war of words with Podcaster and former NFL punter Pat McAfee. This led to an appearance on the McAfee show, where the two men had to be separated. McAfee was in attendance in Houston for the match between Cole and Finn Balor for the NXT Title, which also had the rest of the Undisputed Era banned from ringside, and saw Balor appear in his Demon Persona. Cole fared better against the Demon then most, but had to pull the referee in the way of an attempted Shotgun Dropkick from Balor, which kept Cole from being pinned by the Prince. Cole then pulled out the NXT Title and floored Balor with it, before being distracted by McAfee. Cole then slapped the former punter, causing McAfee to jump the rail and tackle the NXT Champion to the ground. As security pulled McAfee to the back, Cole mockingly waved goodbye to him, only to walk right into a Sling Blade from the recovered Balor. Finn then climbed to the top rope and hit the Coup de Grace to pick up the win from the revived referee, regaining the NXT Title to close the show. |
