Due to Ripley getting injured I think the Smackdown woman will get the war games match.

Team Nia, Stratton, Lerae, Green and Niven vs Team Naomi, Bayley, Michin, Belair and Cargill

Unless you guys want to see the the pure fusion collective team with Liv and Rodriguez to go against Damage Control.

I mean…

They don’t necessarily HAVE to do a Woman’s WarGames.

They do if they don't wanna be relentlessly bitched at for not treating the women as equals

This is exactly what I was thinking.

Only reason to have one is so people don’t complain about a lack of inclusion.

But I look at it like this: they didn’t have a Woman’s Hell in a Cell when the situation called for it. Why have a woman’s war games when the situation doesn’t?

Because they've set the precedent the last few years that the women will have one since it's a themed PLE, whereas the HIAC match was a one off if i'm making any sense.

They really aren't bitched at by anyone that matters if shit is logical. They were rightfully bitched at for no women's HIAC bc it could have fit as CW said, but they said they wanted to make it more special by only having one. That logic should apply for WarGames too if that's how they look at it.

Yes, plenty will complain. Most don't actually care about women, they shouldn't be listened to. It's no different than the people that bitched about WWE Evolution happening (even tho an All Men's PPV happened on Saudi the same month). So if you wanna find bitching to point it out, you certainly can, probably on both sides of the coin too.

To an extent but HIAC has been an October tradition since 2009, they just changed the name this year

Some people have theorized NXT should get a women's wargames match this year instead and that would be better IMO

Tbh,

With the exception of the Rumble, I don’t think they need a gimmick match for the men and women EVERY year.

Maybe one year the women miss out on War Games but get an Elimination Chamber match and vice versa for the men the following year

I like MITB and the Rumble, the Rumble is the one I think is the hardest to not have and should always stay, but that's by far the one show I want to be 2 nights for that.

EC and War Games alternating is fun, I'd be cool with that. I think War Games is really the main one I think they should just have one of bc you're just forcing a second faction war usually anyway, and if it's not forced then your two feuds tend to be redundant too

Damn I didn’t even think of MITB. Yeah you definitely need a men’s and women’s of that.

i think that brand warfare should have some sort of repercussions like for draft picks or maybe main event slots etc.
