To me, this movie is perfection.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

In terms of the overall event, the 1991 Survivor Series is middling at best. The tag matches the event features are hit-or-miss, and the WWF is still figuring out what the future may hold. Plus, this event seems like more of a push towards the "This Tuesday In Texas" event coming up soon after this one. Time after time, that event was referenced and promoted, making this one seem like a place-holder.What makes this a rather iconic event, though, was the momentous decision to (spoiler alert!) have Hulk Hogan drop the WWF title to Undertaker. Besides the obvious "odd feel" of this move (happening so suddenly), it was actually a big step forward for the WWF to take. In finally pushing a new, popular character (which Undertaker indeed was at the time), they finally showed the capability to react to change.Overall, Survivor Series '91 was about as up-and-down of an event as you can find. A lot of average performances surrounding the huge Hogan/Taker match.

*SPOILERS*
This one was highly entertaining, if not pointless. It's as though nothing was settled and the fans weren't satisfied, so they tacked "Tuesday in Texas" on to make us happy.The opening match had its moments, like Rowdy Roddy Piper getting a great push by eliminating the Warlord. Once again, the British Bulldog got the Survivor Series shaft. And I was thoroughly dissatisfied with the ending. Imagine if they had let the match run its course and we got treated to a 45-minute marathon, like in the past? Ric Flair and Bret Hart could have put on a real show at the end of it.Hacksaw's team vs. Mustafa's team: I liked watching good, popular wrestlers who had mediocre careers (Duggan, Slaughter, Tito Santana and Kerry von Erich) dominate a group of washed-up jobbers. This was Skinner's first pay-per-view, and I think he will one day get cult status for his Brooklyn Brawler-like WWF career. In one vignet, he actually said "I've won more than fifty percent of my WWF matches."The Hogan-Undertaker match was just about the most boring main event ever.As for the last match, the Big Bossman got the shaft, but I liked watching Earthquake stand up for Typhoon and walk out of the match. Bossman stopping IRS from fleeing was great. Giving the Legion of Doom and Big Bossman a post-match celebration was a fine ending to an entertaining, adequate pay-per-view.

Big Movie Fan
Survivor Series 1991 was a phenomenal event with fantastic matches on the card.Roddy Piper captained a team against Ric Flair and his cronies in an entertaining and at times wild brawl.The patriotic Hacksaw Jim Duggan captained a team against the Iranian Colonel Mustafa in another wild brawl.The high flying Rockers teamed up with the crazy Bushwhackers to battle the disgusting Nasty Boys and the posh Beverly Brothers in an entertaining match.There was a brilliant six-man tag match in which the Big Boss Man and the Legion of Doom battled I.R.S. and the huge Natural Disasters.(SPOILER AHEAD) In the main event Hulk Hogan defended his title against the unstoppable Undertaker. The Undertaker dented Hogan and took his belt in a good match.Five matches all of which were great-what more could one ask for?
