The 1990 installment of WWF's Survivor Series has its own up and downs. Starting with the first match, a four-on-four Survivor Series match between The Warriors (Animal, Hawk, The Texas Tornado, and Ultimate Warrior) and The Perfect Team (Ax, Crush,Mr. Perfect, and Smash), the PPV event are basically wrestlers forming teams to compete in Survivor Series matches. The first match was a disaster, as it involved four wrestlers being disqualifed for brawling outside the ring (ending with a kick to the referee's groin) which basically proved to be a cheap writing and the fact that Ultimate Warrior no sells Mr. Perfect's finish and goes on to win the fight made that a lame opener.
However, the second match between The Million Dollar Team and The Dream Team (Dusty Rhodes, Bret Hart, Jim Neidhart, and Koko B. Ware) that is more memorible. After the first three members of the Million Dollar Team, Ted DiBiase, Honky Tonk Man, and Greg Valentine, the Million Dollar Man would take over the announcer and announce the fourth member of his team (which until the match, has been kept secret). That moment is remembered by many as the debut of The Undertaker, a wrestler who sadly, in this match was eliminated by count out, even though he tagged out to another teammate and was no longer the legal man, which makes less sense when the reverse happened in the next match with Rick Martel, a member of the The Visionaries, when Jake "The Snake" Roberts was counted out to end the match he was in, proving whoever wrote these two matches still had a lot to learn about the rules of pro wrestling.
So, for the main event, the survivors of the team matches face each other to see who the sole survivor is, which ended up being a three-against-five, with Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, and Tito Santana taking on Ted DiBiase and the four other wrestlers who survived their matches, but not before we get a scene where Mean Gene Okerlund being forced to dance with the infamous Gobbledy Gooker (who made his debut here as WWF's attempt to create a mascot, but would be dropped in a month, and become infamous for being another one of those horrible wrestling gimmicks). Overall, it's okay, but it could have been better.
