Sure, I can help with that.

Here is a more detailed paraphrase of the text:The show is allegedly for brand bragging rights, even though the show that 'wins' Survivor Series never actually mentions it.

This highlights how thin the veil of 'brand supremacy' is, as the announcers didn't even bother to tell us whether Raw or SmackDown won more matches at Survivor Series 2021.

(It was Raw, by the way.

)The main event of Survivor Series saw Roman Reigns defeat Big E in a match worth watching.

Big E showed great fire in his role as the main-event babyface, although this was undercut by the fact that he was beaten clean in the middle by Reigns.

Unfortunately, despite his presence being teased, we didn't get to see The Rock at Survivor Series, so the rumored Rock versus Reigns WrestleMania feud remains just a rumor.

Other highlights include Becky Lynch defeating Charlotte Flair in the opening bout, and Team Raw besting SmackDown in both the men's and women's Survivor Series eliminator matches.

In a change from tradition, this is it for WWE pay-per-views for the year.

Instead of a December TLC show, we get a pay-per-view called Day 1 on January 1.

This was a good Roman Reigns main event, but not one of his best.

The first 7-10 minutes were slow and felt superfluous.

Normally that's fine, but the crowd was quieter than usual tonight, so the match didn't have the usual electric atmosphere of a Reigns main event.

That said, as his matches always do, this did pick up.

About 15 minutes in, Big E dodged a Superman Punch but was then caught by a Rock Bottom, which got a 'Rocky' chant from the crowd.

Reigns then blitzed Big E with three Superman Punches and set up for the Spear, only for Big E to Hulk Up and cut him off.

Big E threw Reigns onto the apron and cut him down with a Spear to the outside.

Big E chucked Reigns back into the ring, where Reigns hit a massive Spear for a sick near fall.

Big E kicked out, which got huge dueling chants for Big E and Roman.

After a first failed attempt, Reigns managed to lock Big E into the guillotine choke.

In a great counter, Big E powered Reigns up out of the guillotine and onto his shoulders to land a Big Ending.

Reigns grabbed the rope to break up the pin, which got a 'this is awesome!' chant.

The two battled on the outside, with Big E slamming Reigns onto the announcer's table.

Reigns reversed Big E's Irish whip, sending Big E into the steel steps.

Reigns hit a huge Superman Punch off the steps, then tossed Big E into the ring.

Big E attempted a Big Ending, but Reigns slipped out, kicked Big E's knee, and scored a Spear for the win.

Great match.

The downside is that Big E, who only recently made the jump from midcard babyface to world champion, was beaten decisively by the heel Reigns.

It's not good for Big E's credibility, but it's to be expected since Reigns is obviously WWE's bigger investment.

Sadly, no Rock after the match.

WWE is building to Reigns' rematch with Brock Lesnar, so it makes sense to not lessen Lesnar's value by overshadowing him by teasing a Rock-Reigns match, if that is indeed on the cards.

The women's Raw versus SmackDown Survivor Series match featured on one side Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, Carmella, and Queen Zelina (Team Raw) and on the other Sasha Banks, Shayna Baszler, Shotzi Blackheart, Natalya, and Toni Storm (Team SmackDown).

With Natalya and Liv Morgan in the ring, the crowd kind of died.

It's been a surprisingly subdued crowd all night long, considering how spirited New York crowds usually are, but they were conspicuously quiet for this match.

They did perk up for stars like Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair, but even good action between the likes of Rhea Ripley and Shayna Baszler got a muted reaction.

There was a moment around here where Shotzi pulled Sasha Banks off the apron, slamming her face into the ring—which the announcers simply said was 'teammates not getting on' before ignoring it completely.

Really weird.

Ripley put Baszler in position for a Riptide, but Shotzi broke it up.

They then did the sequence where each woman came in and did a move, only to be taken out by the next woman.

With everyone out, Banks tagged herself in.

On the other side, Bianca rose up and got a tag of her own.

The crowd came alive, with dueling 'Let's go Sasha/E-S-T' chants.

They had a great sequence, reminiscent of their previous encounters, but it didn't last long.

Bianca tagged in Zelina for some teamwork offense.

As Banks and Zelina found themselves in the SmackDown corner, after hitting her Storm One DDT, Liv Morgan came in next for Team Raw and had an awkward as hell exchange with Storm—very sloppy, as most of what they did looked mistimed.

Baszler got the Karifuda Clutch on Morgan, but Morgan countered by backing Baszler into the corner—the SmackDown corner.

Shotzi tagged herself in and landed a top-rope splash on Morgan, which was then followed by a Frog Splash from Banks.

It's now 2-4, with Raw consisting of just Ripley and Belair.

Ripley rallies against Banks but is overwhelmed by Team SmackDown.

She ate a Backcracker from Banks, a reverse DDT from Shotzi, and then a big knee from Baszler.

So it's Bianca against a SmackDown team of four.

Team SmackDown promptly implodes, as Banks and Shotzi have an argument over who's the legal woman.

They end up shouting at each other on the outside, and Banks pushes Shotzi into Baszler.

Banks tried to get back into the ring multiple times but was pulled out by Baszler, then Shotzi, and then, for some reason, Natalya.

Bianca then managed to capitalize.

Baszler surprised Belair with a Karifuda Clutch, but Belair reverses it into a move that looked like Beth Phoenix's Glam Slam, and then she gets the pin.

After a few minutes, Belair manages to eliminate the remaining members of Team SmackDown.

This just didn't click.

A lot of it was sloppy—Belair, Banks, Baszler, and Ripley were reliably smooth, but the rest often looked awkward—and the crowd was not into most of it.

The whole 'SmackDown implodes' story was contrived and felt forced, which took away from the drama of Belair winning against supposedly insurmountable odds.

In a confrontation between Raw and SmackDown Tag Team Champions, the red brand's Team RK-Bro defeated The Usos.

It was a fine match with a spectacular finish: Jimmy Uso attempted a top-rope splash on Riddle, only to be caught by an RKO in midair.

Much of the bout was standard tag team fare.

The Usos worked over Riddle, who made several pained attempts to tag in Orton.

The tag eventually came, and Orton ran wild, only to tag Riddle back in.

He hit a fun flurry of Muay Thai kicks and sentons, but then the Usos were back on top.

There was a nice false finish where the Usos clocked Randy Orton with a double superkick and then, when he was on his knees, knocked out Riddle with a superkick on either side of Riddle's head.

It looked like The Usos would win, but Riddle bridged out.

Orton was able to surreptitiously tag himself in but quickly ate a superkick.

As Jimmy, unaware of the tag, tried to beat Riddle with a top-rope splash, Orton flew in with a surprise RKO for the win.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of The Rock's debut, we get a 25-man battle royale match.

There are also a lot of Pizza Hut boxes on the outside of the ring and by the rampway, so I guess this doubles as a promotion for Pizza Hut too.

The only entrances we see are for Sami Zayn, AJ Styles and Omos, Ricochet, and The Street Profits.

There was nothing to this.

Omos eliminated everyone (not literally everyone—but he did get 12 eliminations, which is half the field).

None of it was presented as being important.

The last two people in the match were Omos and Ricochet.

The crowd briefly got behind Ricochet, but Omos threw him out almost immediately.

After the match, The Street Profits threw pizza slices out to the crowd as the announcers thanked Pizza Hut.

Cool.

This match pit Seth Rollins, Finn Balor, Austin Theory, Kevin Owens, and Lashley (Team Raw) against Drew McIntyre, Happy Corbin, Jeff Hardy, Xavier Woods, and Sheamus (Team SmackDown).

Seth Rollins ended up the winner, beating SmackDown's Jeff Hardy to snag the victory for Raw.

It began with Kevin Owens arguing with Team Raw about who's starting.

Eventually, captain Rollins relented and let Owens start.

Owens got fired up to fight with SmackDown's Xavier Woods—and then bailed outside and walked up the ramp to purposefully get himself counted out.

Nice heel move.

Right off the bat, it's 5-4.

The numbers were evened up about five minutes later when Lashley took out Drew McIntyre on the outside by putting McIntyre on his shoulders and slamming his head into the turnbuckle
