2002, just the feel of the event and th MSG atmosphere was awesome and the the matches where all above average standard, great PPV.
1991, 1996, 2000 and 2003, 2004 honourable mentions, some good matches but just that little something lacking to make it a great event.

I always thought 1996 was a forgotten gem as well.

Always was a fan of Survivor Series 2003. Was so excited for this PPV, I went and watch it at the movie theatres with a bunch of friends and it didnt dissapoint. Shane vs. Kane and Taker vs. Vince were very fun matches but It was definatley Team Austin vs. Team Bischoff that stole the show. Only downside was that Trips vs. Goldberg was the main event, I thought that match was very blah.

I'm also going with 2002. It just had so many good matches. The under card had an awesome 6 man table match, a good Cruiserweight Title match, a nice Hardcore Women's Title match and a really long exciting WWE Tag Title match. The WWE title match was not exactly great but at the time the betrayal was cool. And of course the first Elimination Chamber main event for the WHT was just epic. Such a good match with a memorable ending. P.S I loved the theme which was Saliva's Always.  |

As always,age is showing through on Wfigs. (always an exception though)
I think the problem with things like this is the emotion of watching something live and current is totally different to watching something on dvd/tape years after it happened.

1987, by far. It was beyond awesome. I remember it most for the incredible women's match featuring The Jumping Bomb Angels. My god, they were so exciting to watch. And I loved how Ventura and Monsoon put them over on commentary. Such a great match. Very underrated and not talked about often enough.

2002 without question for me. HBK, in the chamber, epic.
My second favorite, which I voted for, was 1992. I loved the Flair/Razor vs Perfect/Macho tag match, Boss Man in the gimmick match, and then Bret vs Shawn. I think that was the first Casket Match too right?

1988 for for me...it was the first Survivor Series i saw on pay per view, and the matches were great.
Loved the 20 man tag team with 5 teams on each side...just shows how strong the tag division was and fans loved them. Demolition turning face and Fuji siding with Powers of Pain...great stuff.
Was a huge Mega Powers fan...and their feud with the Twin Towers was pretty good...this was basically planting the seeds for the Mega Powers to explode when Hogan was getting "friendly" with Elizabeth, and Savage having that crazy look...it was funny Jesse Ventura picking up on that tension.
