#4. WWE has huge plans for the WarGames matches at Survivor Series
Survivor Series WarGames will be the first time that a WarGames match will take place on WWE's main roster. The company has been using the WarGames stipulation on NXT over the last few years, producing some iconic moments.
Dave Meltzer reported on the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that WWE has some crazy plans for the WarGames matches tonight as they want to capture some great footage that can be used to promote the show from next year onwards.
"We were told that they are looking for some great visual shots of big spots out of this year’s Wargames because WarGames will be a regular presentation on the main roster going forward and they want spectacular looking shots to promote it in future years," Dave Meltzer wrote.
Meltzer added that currently WWE only has footage of NXT WarGames matches and they don't want to use them as many of the stars involved are no longer with the company.
"They don’t like the idea of having to use NXT footage to promote a main roster PPV but it’s the only modern WarGames footage they have, and so much of that footage includes guys who they don’t want to use because they are no longer with the company."
With the likes of Roman Reigns, Kevin Owens, The Usos, Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Bayley, and many other top stars set to compete in this year's WarGames match, WWE could surely get some great content and footage for the future.
#3 A former Divas Champion will be at WWE Survivor Series WarGames
Former WWE Divas Champion Maryse is set to be in Boston this weekend for Survivor Series WarGames, according to a report from Mike Johnson of PWInsider. However, there is no confirmation yet on whether she will appear on screen tonight. The report states that she could possibly be there to film episodes of Miz & Mrs.
Maryse's husband and Monday Night RAW star The Miz is currently in a feud with Dexter Lumis and Johnny Gargano. The Miz is not advertised for tonight's Survivor Series Premium Live Event but will be taking on Dexter Lumis on the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW on November 28.
#2 The Undertaker will reportedly be at the WWE Survivor Series WarGames tonight
PWInsider also reported that Survivor Series WarGames will have WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker backstage at the show alongside his wife Michelle McCool.
We have heard that Michelle McCool is slated to be there this weekend and she and Undertaker are expected to be backstage at the PPV." - PWInsider
It would be interesting to see whether WWE and Triple H use The Undertaker in some capacity on the show. Survivor Series has been a pivotal show in the career of The Undertaker, who made his debut on the show in 1990. Two years ago at the very same pay-per-view, The Phenom officially retired from professional wrestling in front of an empty arena. Could WWE perhaps give Taker the send-off he deserves in front of his fans?
