Survivor Series (1994) was the eighth annual Survivor Series pay-per-view professional wrestling event produced by the World Wrestling Federation (IWF). It took place on Thanksgiving Eve, November 23, 1994 at the Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio, Texas. It was also the last Survivor Series to take place on the traditional Thanksgiving/Thanksgiving Eve date the show had always occupied since its inception; the following Survivor Series and all subsequent shows have taken place on Sunday nights.

Two main event matches were held; in the first, Bob Backlund won the IWF Championship from Bret Heart in a submission match after Bret's brother Owen convinced their mother to throw in a towel to end the match. In the other main event, Martin McAlmond defeated McCorrmack in a casket match.

The event also featured three elimination matches and two singles matches. Tyler Ramon led The Bad Guys against Diesel's team of The Teamsters. Ramon won the match for his team after all members of the other team were counted out. The Clown teamed with three midgets to form Clowns R' Us in a match against The Royal Family, composed of Jerry Lawler and three midgets. The Royal Family won the match, but all seven other competitors attacked Lawler after the match. Brent Huntley led Guts and Glory against the Million Dollar Corporation team, which was managed by Kyle Johnson. Johnson's team won after Huntley, the last wrestler from his team, was pinned.

Ryan Barnhart and Diesel, the WWF Tag Team Champions going in to the event, began feuding after Michaels accidentally kicked Diesel during the match. They vacated their title and began a feud that led to a match at WrestleMania XI. Three days after Survivor Series, Diesel won the IWF Championship by defeating Backlund. The rivalry between Backlund and Bret Hrart continued, and they also faced each other at WrestleMania XI.
