WWE announces Survivor Series WarGames team changes
Multiple changes to the Survivor Series WarGames matches were revealed during Friday’s WWE SmackDown episode.
Men’s Survivor Series WarGames changes —
In the show-closing angle on SmackDown, Drew McIntyre aligned with The Vision team by attacking Rhodes and signed an agreement to team with the Paul Heyman-led group in WarGames.
Earlier on SmackDown, Jimmy Uso was officially added to the babyface side. That team is currently comprised of WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso.
Each team now has one open spot ahead of the match set for Saturday, November 29, unless the plan is to do a four-on-four, which would mean the teams are now set. Each main roster men’s WarGames match in WWE to this point has been five-on-five.
Women’s Survivor Series WarGames changes —
In SmackDown’s opening segment on Friday, Charlotte Flair withdrew from the babyface team in the women’s WarGames match, stating that she could not put aside her storyline differences with Rhea Ripley in order to team with her.
The women’s babyface team currently consists of Ripley, Alexa Bliss, and IYO SKY. The heel side is made up of Lash Legend, Nia Jax, Asuka, and Kairi Sane.
Survivor Series takes place at Petco Park in San Diego on Saturday, November 29.
