On the Survivor Series go-home episode of Monday Night RAW, Becky Lynch and Xia Li fought a hard contest with NXT Women’s Champion Lyra Valkyrie in the crowd. Soon after Lynch won the match with a Manhandle Slam, Damage CTRL invaded RAW in an attempt to catch the former seven-time champion off guard. Lynch came prepared as well because soon after Charlotte Flair and Shotzi stopped them in their tracks as Bianca Belair came to the aid as the leader of her team. The groups then engaged in a chaotic battle, further adding to the excitement of their big match this weekend.

On SmackDown last week, Belair and her team were desperate to find a fourth member because Damage CTRL kept attacking anyone who tried to join their opponents’ side. Eventually, Flair would declare she had to make a “phone call” going on to phone one of her former four horsewomen, Becky Lynch. Lynch would then ignore the calls from her former best friend but soon enough she reluctantly answers to see what she wants. Flair uses her gifts of persuasion to somehow win Lynch over, agreeing to join them at Survivor Series. This weekend’s WarGames match marks the first time the two decorated champions will be on the same side since 2021. On the same episode, Asuka allied herself with Damage CTRL when Bayley got on her knees and presented her with a Damage CTRL t-shirt, celebrating with the group.

WWE recently revealed a collaboration with chip brand Ruffles that allows fans a unique opportunity to vote in a poll to determine which team (Damage CTRL or Team Bianca) will get the advantage of entering WarGames first.
