Last night was the Survivor Series pay per view and we saw a new champion crowned as Mickie James defeated Lita, in Lita’s final match. Then we saw the emotional breakdown completed for Lita since Cryme Tyme came out and decided to give away some of Lita’s favorite clothing and toys. What is the aftermath for the participants in the three classic Survivor Series matches? What will happen to the Spirit Squad since Ric Flair was able to take care of the entire team, but they did get some revenge on Flair after the match. Will DX know their opponents this week since Shawn Michaels was not sure who Mike Knox was last night? Will we see Carlito on the show since he was not on the pay per view? Will Team Xtreme be able to gain the World Tag Titles as they face Randy Orton and Edge? What is next for Umaga since he appears to have a career in television after his use of the monitor last night in his minute in his match? Will John Cena be able to carry the show this week the way that he was able to lift Big Show on his shoulders to hit the FU to win the match? Who will become the new number one contender for the Women’s Title? Will we see any buildup for the December to Dismember pay per view since it is less than a week away?
