I don't know what all is available at the arena you are trying to go to, but when Raw came to my hometown, rather than getting seats on the floor, in the stands, or on any of the balconies, a few of my friends and I chipped in and bought what is called a loge box. This is a step below the luxury or skybox, but a huge step up from general seating. We paid 350 bucks for 4 tickets, a 50 dollar food and beverage credit, a parking pass, and VIP entrance and escort, with service at the box. This seating was not available through general ticket sales. I went to the arena website itself, located the event on the calendar, and went through s premium seating option.
This was the best experience I have ever had at ANY live event. We had our own box with 4 nice big plush seats, a refrigerator, plenty of room to stand, and a flawless view where no one could obstruct our view. It is more expensive but it is SOOOOOOO worth it. You aren't cramped which is a big deal to me, I am a big guy and I get claustrophobic in the regular grand stand or floor seating, and have a hard time fitting in the seats, I'm not morbidly obese or anything either but I am a naturally big guy and having the loge box and room to move around and breath just made it all the more enjoyable. There was even a velvet rope for God sake to the private entrance of our box. I would say, pony up the dough for the premium seating, get a loge box, and enjoy the show like never before.
Edit: I just went and did some of the research for you. When you go to the MSG website, find the Survivor Series event, and go to buy tickets. If you look to the right of the page there is a tab and area that says "Platinum Seating". At the moment it is not available, but that is probably where you are going to find it. I had to submit a request for the box, was contacted by a event coordinator, and went to the arena, paid in cash, and got my tickets and parking pass then and there. You do have to jump through a hoop or two but it is worth it more than anything else.
