Card Update, Time & Watch Info

WWE Survivor Series is coming into form ever so slowly. The PLE is two weeks away and all we know is that we’ll have two WarGames matches. While both matches will run long, you’d have to think there will be at least two non-WarGames tilts on the card.

So far, here’s what we know after Friday’s episode of Smackdown.

Survivor Series 2025 Card

Locked In

• CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso), and TBA vs. The Vision (Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed), Logan Paul, Drew McIntyre and More
• Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, Alexa Bliss, and 2 (one is still likely Charlotte Flair) vs. Nia Jax, Lash Legend, The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane), and TBA

McIntyre joined the fray on the Vision’s side to close out Smackdown. While he was suspended a few weeks ago, McIntyre returned to join the Vision in a beatdown of Rhodes and the Usos.

At this point, both sides are short one guy. The babyfaces will likely be joined by Roman Reigns or John Cena.

I’m leaning toward Reigns as his presence will bring that element of potential internal turmoil that is present in all WarGames matches.

As for the Vision, I’m banking on the last spot being filled by Brock Lesnar. It makes sense and having him would lock in all of the company’s top healthy male Superstars.

As for the ladies, the inner turmoil angle came from Charlotte as she walked out on Alexa Bliss, Iyo Sky and Rhea Ripley. Flair says her issues with Ripley won’t allow her to team with the Eradicator.

That won’t last, but the question still remains, who’s the fifth lady on both sides?

We could see Stephanie Vaquer on the face side with the recently turned Nikki Bella joining the heels. Quite honestly, it really could be anyone. One thing is for sure, whomever it is they won’t come with a well-developed storyline that validates their presence.

Potential Additions

• Ilja Dragunov US Open Challenge

It seems it would only happen if Dragunov was going to lose the title, and that doesn’t seem to be coming up any time soon. Still, he’s been a Smackdown mainstay for a month and WWE is pushing him hard.

• Jade Cargill Women’s WWE Women’s Championship title defense

Cargill is on a dominant run and after she squashed B-Fab on Friday, Michin appears to be next. That’s not a PLE match. Perhaps there is someone else who could pose a challenge. Perhaps Tiffany Stratton shows up and gets a rematch.

• Dominik Mysterio vs. John Cena rematch

There’s no way Mysterio doesn’t wrestle in his hometown. They will find a spot for him and it’ll likely be in a major role. I could see him getting his rematch in San Diego and even winning back his IC title. Somehow, Rey Mysterio will need to be involved as well to completely satisfy the Petco Park faithful.

• Stephanie Vaquer vs. Nikki Bella

This very meh angle popped up on Raw this week. They don’t have much in the way of a challenge for Vaquer and the hopes appear to be centered on Nikki’s name carrying some weight. If Brie returns and helps to dethrone Vaquer, that might be something. Aside from that, this is a seemingly necessary match, but not one I’m excited about.

• Aleister Black vs. Damian Priest

This is another ho-hum feud. Both men are getting time to make this thing compelling, but I don’t think it’s over with the fans. There’s nothing at stake and very little developed from a story standpoint. Thus, people are likely struggling to care. As it is, it’s a possibility for one of the matches sandwiched between the WarGames bouts.
