Survivor series 12: debut of shield and punk/cena/ryback the highlight an ok card. The series match show the shield needed to be added as it had an uninspiring midcard outside of team hell no. Shield gave wwe an talent boost that is needed then.
13: had it moments like reigns being sole survivor with 4 eliminations and cena/del rio. Orton/show was an main event noone wanted as reflected by the low buyrate.
Kane/show main eventing ppvs in 12-13 show wwe inability to have new main eventers by then the barrett/sheamus main event in 2010 didn't work so they went with the safe established choice.
14: team cena vs authority, amazing match and ziggler been sole survivor lead to nought and sting lost his debut match another missed opportunities by wwe booking. Ambrose/wyatt was good also and set up for tlc.
15: ok show nothing stood out, reigns/ambrose only got 9 mins for an main event first time match underwhelming. Sheamus didn't work in 09/10, wouldn't work in 15 aleast it was short.
Ambrose 2014-16 had an great main event run in particular 2015 with rollins 2x, 4 way and reigns. 16 was hhh, shield triple threat and aj 2x, to an quiet 2017 outside the tlc main event.
