K, here's the current (packed) Survivor Series card. I've got 2 Smackdowns and 1 Raw left, so barring any injuries, suspensions, or rehabilitations, here's what's happening:
WWE Championship - Interpromotional Triple Threat Match: John Cena vs. Jason Collins vs. Goldberg (C)
Both John Cena and Jason Collins have been looking to get title shots at SS, since it's an interpromotional PPV and Goldberg could face seemingly any male on the roster. It got to the point where Collins and Cena did run ins on the opposing show and wreaked havoc, and ultimately this match was signed as a result.
Survivor Series Elimination Match: Ian Moore, Ken Shamrock, and The Thug Life Soldiers vs. Kurt Angle, Chris Sylvain, Reaper, and Ryan Creed
This is a result of the aforementioned arresting of Ian Moore. Both men formed teams over the weeks, and a whole host of stipulations have been signed as a result. If Moore's team loses, then each member of their team will lose $400,000 while each member of Angle's team wil become $400,000 richer. However, for Moore's team, it's not about money, it's about power and trying to change Kurt Angle's ways. Should Moore's team win, then each member will be given the chance to choose their match at the SmackDown-exclusive PPV, Armageddon.
Survivor Series Elimination Match: Chris Jericho, Garrett, Bishop, and Kreeve vs. La Resistance (Lance Storm, Rob Conway, Sylvain grenier, and Chris Nowinski)
I'm pretty sure I mentioned the buildup for this match already as well. Jericho resigns should his team lose, but if his team is victorious then La Resistance will have to part ways.
WWE European Championship: Mordecai vs. Simon Diamond (C)
Mordecai has been utterly unstoppable since his return, and Diamond is hoping to change that and hold onto the belt that he beat Mordecai (then Seven) for at SummerSlam.
Eugene vs. Alex Michaels
These two have been feuding ever since No Mercy, when Eugene's then manager, M-A-G, turned on Eugene after a rapid losing streak and a suddenly demented personality change. M-A-G has sent in another one of his clients, Alex Michaels, to finish the job. However, it won't be that easy, as Eugene has been on a roll since M-A-G left him. As an added bonus to this match, the winner will be entered into the battle royal later on.
10-Man Interpromotional Battle Royal - Winner gets an Intercontinental/European Title Match at the next Raw or Smackdown
5 of Raw and 5 of Smackdown's finest will collide in an attempt to get a shot at the brands' coveted titles.
Also, there will be 2 more Survivor Series Elimination matches, one will be all women and one will be all cruiserweights. The one that gets the final pinfall/submission in each gets a shot at the corresponding title on the following Raw/Smackdown. It should also be noted that Cruiserweight Champion Mark Mason will take part in the match, and if he comes out on top, he'll get a well-earned day-off and he won't have to defend the belt on Smackdown.
