Hold onto your spandex, folks! Just a day before WWE SummerSlam 2024, WWE CCO Paul “Triple H” Levesque has dropped a major announcement: This year’s WWE Survivor Series WarGames will be storming into Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on November 30. That’s right, Vancouver, prepare for some high-flying, body-slamming action!
In a video that hit social media faster than a RKO outta nowhere, Triple H revealed he had just wrapped up a call with Destination Vancouver. These folks aren’t just about maple syrup and beautiful landscapes; they’re all about bringing the WWE Universe to the Great White North. With this deal inked, WarGames is back for the third straight year, and it’s coming in hot.
This November’s showdown marks the first time Survivor Series sets foot in Vancouver. The last time the city hosted a WWE premium live event was way back in 1998 for WWF In Your House 26: Rock Bottom. It’s been a long wait, but worth every second, with occasional TV tapings like this year’s New Year’s Revolution edition of “WWE SmackDown” at the very same Rogers Arena.
Last year’s Survivor Series WarGames was one for the history books. It saw the grand return of Randy Orton, who was advertised for the main event WarGames match, and the shocking comeback of CM Punk, who closed out the show after nearly a decade away. Can you say epic?
For the past two years, Survivor Series has doubled down on the chaos with two WarGames matches – one for the men and one for the women. While it’s too early to make bold predictions on the competitors, tomorrow night’s SummerSlam will surely set the stage for some explosive rivalries leading up to the big event.
