Analysis: It was actually a pretty underwhelming main event, compared to the other matches on the card. Nonetheless, the match was booked in the most ideal way possible with Baszler making Bayley tap out and it was a good business move for NXT to win Survivor Series as a whole as they compete with AEW on Wednesday nights.
