Two title matches added to WWE Survivor Series WarGames

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Two new title matches are set for Survivor Series.

The open of Monday’s Raw saw new Intercontinental Champion John Cena come out for a promo but was immediately interrupted by former champion Dominik Mysterio, who was unhappy about his loss the previous week. He threw out the challenge for a rematch on his home turf: Survivor Series in San Diego. Cena agreed to the match, setting the stage for what will be his final premium live event match.

After some more back and forth, Cena wrestled his final match on Raw. He teamed with Sheamus and Rey Mysterio to defeat Dominik, Finn Balor, and JD McDonagh, scoring the win for his team with the AA.

Stephanie Vaquer will defend the Women’s World Championship against a newly-heel Nikki Bella, who last week attacked Vaquer from behind after initially making the save for her against Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez. As Vaquer made her entrance on Monday, Bella again attacked her from behind. She cut a promo saying she didn’t return to WWE to sit at the sidelines and thanked Vaquer for reminding her who she is.

The updated lineup for Survivor Series:

WWE Survivor Series: WarGames (November 29)

  • Men’s WarGames match: CM Punk, Jey Uso, and Cody Rhodes vs. Logan Paul, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed
  • Women’s WarGames match: Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, Alexa Bliss, and Charlotte Flair vs. Nia Jax, Lash Legend, Asuka, and Kairi Sane
  • Intercontinental Championship: John Cena defends against Dominik Mysterio
  • Women’s World Championship: Stephanie Vaquer defends against Nikki Bella

Naomi & Jimmy Uso announce pregnancy, Women’s World title vacated on WWE Raw

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Proceed with caution, there’s a baby on board.

On Raw, Naomi came out and showed a clip of a What’s Your Story podcast with Stephanie McMahon that will drop immediately after Raw. It was there that she and husband Jimmy Uso announced they are expecting their first child together.

In her promo that took place after, Naomi remained in character and told Adam Pearce that she had to hand over a title once, but this time declared “I ain’t handing you s***,” telling him to exit the ring.

Naomi said that the locker room had her husband to thank because otherwise she was going to spend the next year putting them down on the ground. But on the bright side, she concluded, the Bloodline would continue. She ended the promo by putting the title on the ground and said she would be back in nine months, even if she had to return breastfeeding with her child in her arm. She advised whoever will be champion when she returns to proceed with caution. 

After she made her way to the back, she was congratulated by Triple H:

The now former champion had won the title last month at Evolution, and retained the title at SummerSlam by defeating Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY in a triple threat match. She was pulled from a title defense against IYO SKY on last week’s Raw, with WWE announcing at the time she was not medically cleared.

Michael Cole after the segment said that more information regarding the Women’s World title scene would become known next week. Naomi was originally set to defend the title against Stephanie Vaquer at Clash in Paris on August 31.

Naomi wins Women’s World title at WWE Evolution after Money in the Bank cash-in

A bruised and battered Naomi left Sunday’s WWE Evolution as the new Women’s World Champion following a successful Money in the Bank cash-in.

Reigning champion IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley were both laid out in the ring after a top rope Spanish fly that was preceded by a wild brawl outside the ring that saw SKY launch herself off a large stack of production cases onto Ripley.

As both women were recovering, Naomi’s music hit and she ran out with the case. After it was made official, she hit SKY with the briefcase, ran in and threw Ripley shoulder-first into the ring post, taking her out. She then turned her attention to SKY, connecting on her split-leg moonsault for the pin and title win.

Earlier in the night, Naomi fell in defeat to rival Jade Cargill in a no holds barred match with Bianca Belair as special referee.

It’s Naomi’s first WWE World title run since 2017 when she held the SmackDown version of the title twice that year. She also held the TNA World title for 182 days from 2023 to 2024. After returning to WWE in 2024, she held the Women’s Tag Team titles with Belair — her second run with them.

For SKY, the loss ends her 133-day run as Women’s World Champion while Ripley was looking for her third title run.
