WWE Survivor Series 2014: Predictions for Event's Biggest Stars

WWE Survivor Series is coming on Sunday, November 23. The event promises to be a good one, as The Authority's future is on the line in the main event contest between Team Cena and Triple H's Team Authority.

If John Cena's team wins, then The Authority is out of power and the entire complexion of WWE could possibly change overnight.

That would be a very big change for the company, as the storyline focusing on Hunter and Stephanie McMahon's power trip has dominated WWE for over a year.

Along with the possible consequences of an Authority win or loss, several top WWE talents are featured on the card as well. Their performances will surely determine the overall success of the entire event.

But what does Survivor Series hold for the company's top talent on November 23?

AJ Lee will be defending the Divas Championship at Survivor Series when she steps into the ring against Nikki Bella. Bella has become the most hated Diva in WWE, and that is thanks in large part to the falling-out she had with her sister Brie in a nasty family feud.

Since that time, Nikki and Brie have been at each other's throats. The animosity between them continues to grow with each passing week.

Now that Nikki is challenging for the Divas Championship, the hatred that has built up will surely follow her to Survivor Series. Nikki wants the title, and with her sister Brie in tow, there could be very little standing in her way to becoming the new Divas champion.

Despite the momentum Nikki has, the fact is that AJ should retain the belt at Survivor Series. The heat between her and Paige is still simmering and the feud with Nikki could continue for perhaps one or two more matches.

AJ has become the standard for the Divas division, and as such, she deserves to remain champion. She is the fan favorite and has much to offer as the top titleholder for the women of WWE.

Dean Ambrose

Dean Ambrose is facing off against Bray Wyatt at Survivor Series in a match that is the culmination of several weeks' worth of heat. That heat began at Hell in a Cell, when Wyatt prevented Ambrose from getting the win over former Shield teammate Seth Rollins.

Since that time, Wyatt has been on the offensive with one taped vignette after another. Week in and week out, Wyatt has preached his rhetoric, and every time he does, Ambrose is the focus of every word he speaks.

Wyatt seeks to bring Ambrose into the family and will apparently stop at nothing to make it happen. The only problem is Ambrose wants nothing to do with the offer.

This is one of those feuds that has the potential to be huge for WWE. Both men are so talented in the ring and on the mic, and there seems to be no limit as to how much can be done in this rivalry. The fact is that this has only just begun for them. Survivor Series is but the first chapter in their story.

But considering that Ambrose did indeed lose at Hell in a Cell, he must go over at Survivor Series. That win could come as a result of a disqualification, but it should come nonetheless.

Wyatt's character is not solely based upon wins and losses, so if he does not go over at Survivor Series, it should not damage him that much. And there is always more that can be done with this feud in the future.

John Cena

Cena is the man leading the charge against Team Authority at Survivor Series. As the face of WWE and its top protagonist, Cena is the best man to put on the front lines against Triple H's group. He will surely be ready to go on November 23.

Even though The Authority will come out with guns blazing, the fact is that Cena remains the man to beat in the company. He'll bring that reputation with him when his team follows him to Survivor Series.

Right now, Cena is in somewhat of a holding pattern as he is bides his time in WWE. The reason for that is his upcoming third match with Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. There may not be an official timetable for that bout, but the fact is that Cena must continue to look good until it happens.

Losing to Team Authority at Survivor Series is not exactly the definition of looking good.

Cena will likely be the last survivor for his team or one of the last remaining two when the final bell rings. Cena is the leader and headed for another huge main event with Lesnar, so Survivor Series is basically just a warm-up. He can't lose on this stage and will carry that momentum to his next war with Lesnar.

Randy Orton

Randy Orton is perhaps the biggest wild card of this event. The man who was once the crown jewel in The Authority is now public enemy No. 1. It would likely stop at nothing to destroy him.

Triple H may have thought Orton was sufficiently dealt with when The Authority laid him out on Raw, but the truth is that sooner or later he will be back.  And he may very well be back at Survivor Series.

That appearance would be huge not only for WWE, but for Orton himself. The Viper may be out right now, but if he shows up at Survivor Series, then he could cost The Authority the win in the end.

Orton's interference could come because he is actually part of Team Cena or because he slides in at the last possible moment. Either way, he can become a major difference-maker on November 23.

Orton needs to fully establish himself as a top babyface, and the only way to do that is to get revenge on The Authority, evening the odds and giving it a loss at Survivor Series.
