Men’s WarGames Match
A victory for Roman Reigns would place him second on the Survivor Series win list, tying with Randy Orton with 10. Reigns seeks his seventh consecutive Survivor Series victory, as he hasn’t lost at the event since 2016. If the men’s match closes the event, history favors Reigns’ team, as he has never lost a main event match at Survivor Series (5-0). Logan Paul and Brock Lesnar are the only participants who have never participated in a WarGames match. Jey Uso is the wrestler with the most experience in WarGames, having participated in three matches (2022, 2023, and 2024), and remains undefeated in this format. Drew McIntyre seeks to avoid his sixth consecutive loss at Survivor Series. His last victory was in 2018.Women’s WarGames Match
Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky are the only participants in this match who competed in the first women’s WarGames match at NXT TakeOver: WarGames in 2019. Sky has participated in all seven women’s WarGames matches, being the only woman to achieve this. Ripley, Charlotte Flair, and Nia Jax each have four victories at Survivor Series. Whoever achieves another victory will tie Mickie James and Bianca Belair at the top of the women’s division. Becky Lynch seeks her fourth consecutive victory at Survivor Series. Her last two victories have been in WarGames matches (2022, 2023).Intercontinental Championship: John Cena vs. Dominik Mysterio
