WWE Survivor Series goes extreme this weekend with another year of WarGames.

The final premium live event of 2025 is upon us with one of its most star studded lineups ever, just two weeks before a historic edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event.

From the signature men’s and women’s WarGames match to Intercontinental Champion John Cena putting his gold on the line, WWE isn’t holding back with the Thanksgiving weekend show.

There will also be an in-ring appearance by AJ Lee in what is only her second match in over a decade after she came out of retirement at Wrestlepalooza over the summer.

WWE fans in the UK can stream Survivor Series: WarGames live or on demand via Netflix.

It’s almost a year since the streamer became the official home of WWE for most countries outside the United States, and for fans in the UK that means live episodes of Raw, SmackDown and NXT, and monthly PLEs.

There are also original programmes like tell-all docu-series WWE Unreal, and it’s all part of your subscription, so simply log into your account, and you’re all set!

WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2025 full match card

With four matches announced for the show, WWE is managing to highlight its biggest and brightest stars. Here’s what fans can look forward to:

What are the rules for WWE WarGames

WWE Survivor Series: WarGames predictions for vital show

Metro’s WWE expert Alistair Mcgeorge breaks down this weekend’s action.

This week, Paul Heyman has referred to Survivor Series – and the men’s WarGames match especially – as a star-studded pitch for fans to attend WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.

The talent on display here could make for one of the best WarGames matches of all time, but he’s right that WWE has an opportunity to make a real statement here.

OK, two of the matches have no real stakes – but both of the signature bouts are filled to the brim with the biggest names the company has to offer, along with glimpses of the future.

For the first stadium-sized Survivor Series, I’ll go with Team Punk to lose this one, maybe with the champ getting screwed by his next challenger.

With former Divas Champ AJ Lee appearing in the brutal structure for the first time, I expect her dream team to get the job done in WarGames, with Iyo Sky all but guaranteed to be the standout.

Don’t look now, but we’re about to see John Cena’s final match on Netflix, and his penultimate WWE appearance before his retirement as he defends his newly won IC Title against Dominik Mysterio in a highly anticipated rematch.

There’s no sense in Cena losing now, just two weeks before his retirement match against the winner of the Last Time Is Now tournament.

Stephanie Vaquer faces a tough test defending her Women’s World Championship against Hall of Famer Nikki Bella. Don’t count out the veteran, but La Primera should keep things rolling.

WWE roster and champions

Going into Survivor Series: WarGames, WWE is navigating injury woes with the likes of Seth Rollins on the injury shelf.

However, the present and future is still bright with CM Punk holding Raw’s World Heavyweight Title, while Stephanie Vaquer is the Women’s World Champion.

Over on SmackDown, the WWE Championship is held by Cody Rhodes, while Jade Cargill recently destroyed Tiffany Stratton to win the WWE Women’s Title.

For the respective men’s and women’s Intercontinental Titles, John Cena and rising star Maxxine Dupri hold the gold, while Chelsea Green is enjoying a second stint as women’s United States Champion, and Ilja Dragunov is putting on weekly bangers on the men’s side.

In the tag ranks, Judgment Day’s Finn Balor and JD McDonagh are still on top for Raw, while Wyatt Sicks members Joe Gacy and Dexter Lumis continue to dominate division on SmackDown.
