WarGames is official for the women of SmackDown (and one from Raw).
The Nov. 17 episode was solely to set up WarGames. Damage CTRL kicked off the show with its two new members Kairi Sane and Asuka. With Bayley leading the cause as she normally does but getting some weird reactions from the other members. Dakota Kai spoke up and teased a removal of Bayley as she said one of them aren’t a member of Damage CTRL. However, she was referring to Asuka who hadn’t been officially asked. Bayley asks, and Asuka obliges.
Kai comments that they want a WarGames match against Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, Shotzi and a fourth member of their choosing. From this, Shotzi attempts to go at it alone and jumped Damage CTRL from behind. This is until Flair and Belair come out to try and even the odds.
After the brawl, Belair, Flair, and Shotzi are seen backstage trying to figure out who their fourth will be. SmackDown GM Nick Aldis tells them that he needs their answer of a fourth by the end of the night.
From there, they tried to recruit Michin and then Zelina Vega, but both women were taken out by Damage CTRL. Finally, Belair and Shotzi convince Flair that she has to make the call. But who did she call?
In the main event segment, Team Belair made their way to the ring to announce their fourth. Just before, Flair confirms she made the call but isn’t sure if who she called was going to make it. Flair states she knows something about turning on a best friend just before Damage CTRL makes their way out. Damage CTRL jumps on the ring apron to initiate a fight, but Becky Lynch sneaks in the ring to join Team Bianca.
The two teams fight to end the show.
Elsewhere on SmackDown, we saw Zelina Vega confront Santos Escobar about his attack on Rey Mysterio last week. She slapped him before leaving the ring and joining up with Cruz Del Toro and Joaquin Wilde who have sided with Vega.
B-Fab was seen once again having a conversation with Bobby Lashley.
