The 2014 Survivor Series was the 28th annual Survivor Series professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE. It took place on November 23, 2014, at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri. The event was notable for featuring the WWE debut appearance of former WCW wrestler Sting; it was also the first Survivor Series since 2001 not to feature a world championship match and the first Survivor Series to be livestreamed on the WWE Network, which had been launched in February.
Eight matches were contested at the event, including two on the Kickoff pre-show. The main event saw Team Cena (John Cena, Dolph Ziggler, Erick Rowan, Big Show, and Ryback) defeat Team Authority (Seth Rollins, Kane, Luke Harper, Mark Henry, and Rusev) in a 5-on-5 Survivor Series elimination match, with Ziggler emerging the lone survivor of his team and subsequently the whole match after eliminating Kane, Harper, and Rollins; he became the second wrestler to survive a 3-on-1 situation in a Survivor Series elimination match after Ric Flair in 2006. The event had 100,000 buys (excluding WWE Network views), down from the previous year's 177,000 buys.
