Ahead of WWE Survivor Series: WarGames, WrestleVotes reported that there was some creative contention regarding the entrance order for the Men’s WarGames match. With the amount of star power in play, several scenarios were mapped out, and there were differing opinions on how the bout should be structured.
Following the event, WWE Chief Content Officer Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque addressed the atmosphere surrounding the match during the post-show press conference. He confirmed that there was indeed significant lobbying and politics involving the superstars in the match.
“Unbelievable,” Levesque said about the superstars in the match. “One of the most star-studded WarGames I can recall. The level of star power that was in there was second to none. Everybody delivered. When you have Brock Lesnar, who does not team well with others. When you have Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, CM Punk, Logan Paul. All these people that are in there putting things out at another level, and you see that competitive nature. The lobbying, the politics, the backstage tension tonight, you can cut it with a knife. It was epic. You saw that in people’s performances.”
The match featured a lineup of talent, with Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, and The Usos (Jimmy Uso & Jey Uso) facing off against The Vision (Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed), Brock Lesnar, Drew McIntyre, and Logan Paul. In the end, it was Lesnar, McIntyre, Breakker, Reed, and Paul who were victorious in the match.
Levesque also took a moment to praise Bron Breakker for continuing the match after landing rough on a Doomsday Device. Despite the scary moment, Breakker finished the bout and secured the pinfall for his team.
