10 Wrestlers With Most Wins At Survivor Series
Survivor Series has been one of the most important events in world wrestling for more than 30 years, in which the top stars clash to offer the best possible show to the fans. If a wrestler wants to win in this event, they have to do his best, as in every edition there is untold talent in the ring.

Some Superstars managed to get several wins at this annual November pay-per-view, but others dominated the vast majority of their opponents at will over the years. But which wrestlers stood out as having the most victories in Survivor Series history?
10 Roman Reigns: 5
Roman Reigns has a record of five wins and two losses at Survivor Series. Ironically, his best performance was also his most humiliating.
In 2015, The Big Dog defeated Alberto Del Rio and Dean Ambrose to obtain the WWE World Heavyweight Title, but he was only able to retain the title for five minutes because Sheamus appeared with his Money In The Bank contract and defeated him.
Reigns, 35, is relatively young, so he will surely have several opportunities to continue winning in this event.
9 Bret Hart: 5
The Hitman has starred in some of the best matches in the history of Survivor Series, such as his epic victory against Shawn Michaels in 1992, his victory against Stone Cold Steve Austin in 1996, or that heroic win against Diesel in 1995.
Bret Hart always put on great shows at the event, even when he lost the match.
It's worth mentioning that Mickie James, Randy Savage, Rey Mysterio, CM Punk, Tito Santana, The British Bulldog, and Mark Henry also have five wins at Survivor Series.
8 Shawn Michaels: 7
Interestingly, the Heartbreak Kid is the biggest loser in the history of the event, with 10 losses. However, he has seven wins, which is quite an admirable number.
Probably Shawn Michaels' most notable victory was on November 17, 2002, when he defeated Triple H, Booker T, Rob Van Dam, Chris Jericho, and Kane in the first-ever Elimination Chamber match.
HBK's last participation in this event was in 2009, in a Triple Threat Match against John Cena and Triple H, which ended with victory for Super Cena.
7 Kane: 8
Kane took part in 17 matches at Survivor Series, he won eight, lost seven, and had two draws. The Big Red Machine participated in several interesting matches, both singles and tag team.

His last victory was in the 2015 edition when he teamed up with The Undertaker to defeat The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper). The Devil's Favorite Demon also defeated opponents such as Chris Jericho, Mankind, Shane McMahon, and X-Pac.
Notably, of Kane's eight victories, none gave him a title.
6 The Big Show: 8
On November 14, 1999, in Detroit, Michigan, The Big Show made his Survivor Series debut, and the truth is that it was a dream debut. The World's Largest Athlete defeated Triple H and The Rock to obtain his first WWF World Heavyweight Title.
After that glorious night, The Big Show appeared multiple times at the event, he won seven more matches, but he also lost seven. Some matches were very good, like the one against Sheamus in 2012, but others not so good, like that one against Randy Orton in 2013.
5 Randy Orton: 8
Randy Orton has participated in 14 matches at Survivor Series, winning eight and losing six. His most recent victory was in 2016 when he was part of Team SmackDown (along with Shane McMahon, AJ Styles, Bray Wyatt, and Dean Ambrose) and defeated Team Raw (Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Braun Strowman, Chris Jericho, and Kevin Owens).
2020 will not be the first time The Legend Killer will appear at the event as WWE Champion, as he managed to successfully defend the title against Shawn Michaels in 2007, against Wade Barret in 2010, and against The Big Show in 2013.
4 Dolph Ziggler: 8
Dolph Ziggler is one of the best-performing wrestlers in the entire history of Survivor Series, having an excellent record of eight wins and two losses. The Show Off won six consecutive matches between 2009 and 2014 until he lost against Tyler Breeze in 2015.
Within that winning streak, he beat Kaval to defend the Intercontinental Title in 2010 and one year later beat John Morrison to defend the WWE United States Title.
Ziggler has more losses than wins in his professional career, but at Survivor Series it's a different story.
3 The Rock: 8
Like Dolph Ziggler, The Rock has eight wins and two losses at Survivor Series. His last appearance was in 2011 when he starred in the main event of the night, which by the way was one of the best of the decade.
In that match, The Rock teamed up with John Cena to defeat Awesome Truth (R-Truth and The Miz) in 21 minutes and 32 seconds. Obviously, fans loved seeing Rock and Cena together, as they are both among the most popular wrestlers in history.
2 John Cena: 9
"The Doctor of Thuganomics" has performed in 11 matches at this event, of which he won nine and lost two.

Over the years, John Cena got great victories over Kurt Angle, Alberto Del Rio, and Chris Jericho, but without a doubt, his best match was against Triple H and Shawn Michaels at Survivor Series 2009. It was a Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship, in which Cena managed to defeat the members of D-Generation X, HBK and Triple H. The exciting match ended when Cena gave Michaels an Attitude Adjustment.
1 The Undertaker: 13
On November 22, 1990, The Undertaker earned his first Survivor Series victory when he was part of The Million Dollar Team. One year later, Undertaker defeated the fabulous Hulk Hogan in what was one of the best matches in the event's history, becoming WWF Champion in the process.
From that point on, Taker won match after match to become the top winner of Survivor Series, holding a 13-5 record, which frankly seems unattainable for anyone.
After 30 years of a magnificent career in the industry, The Phenom will make his final appearance at the event and will likely officially say goodbye to the ring at the 2020 event.
