[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]It was announced in the arena at RAW last night that tickets for the 2010 Survivor Series will go on sale this Friday. The event is scheduled for the American Airlines Arena in Miami on November 21.

In February, Vince McMahon had claimed that the Survivor Series name would be retired after 22 years, due to the poor buyrate for the 2009 edition. However, as it often does in the wrestling business, things have changed.

Great news, but doesn't this conflict with WWE's "Bragging Rights" PPV which is based on a 7 on 7 tag match?

Too bad. I was hoping that they were going to bring back Battle Bowl, the Triple Cage match or King of the Ring. All would have been better, than having kind of the same concept back to back.

Not a bad decision at all, now just get rid of bragging rights and after that stick Raw vs. Smackdown matches exclusivly to Survivor Series as it used to be cuase when its happened semiannually it takes away from the whole Survivor Series factor.

Here's an idea for WWE. Scrap Bragging Rights, add KOTR... Keep Survivor Series, and actually build the card... >.> Holy shit! That would be epic!!!

SS>>>>>>>>>Bragging Rights.

Great SS history while Bragging Rights just has VINTAGE BRAGGING RIGHTS to be remembered by.

They should keep the 5 on 5 Survivor Series tag match intact, but not have it brand vs. brand considering it is right after Bragging Rights.

They should devise some other type of match that isn't a tag match to have for brand vs. brand at Bragging Rights.

The only problem I see with the Survivor Series name is that it's SS - the same as SummerSlam. However, I'm glad the name is staying because it's a good name for a gimmick PPV. WWE need to stop calling their PPVs the obvious like FatalFourway & Extreme Rules when they could call them by their old names but still add the gimmick.

Im glad they kept Survivor Series. But if they keep Bragging Rights they should do is put Champion vs champion Matches or best of Seven Series matches like for example the brand that has won the most matches out of 7 would win the Bragging Rights trophy.
