Another match that has fans on the edge of their seats features Intercontinental Champion Gunther up against The Miz, a star admired for his remarkable career with the workhorse title.

In the WarGames match, the audience can expect a heated confrontation between Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, and Shotzi, and a more intense version of Damage CTRL, now strengthened by the addition of Kairi Sane and Asuka. Undoubtedly, this will be a savage clash, mesmerizing fans with its high-risk maneuvers and fierce rivalry.

Last-minute Changes

The Survivor Series card had to undergo some changes due to unexpected injuries. WWE Hall of Famers, Rey Mysterio and Carlito, will not be able to participate in the event.
