WWE Survivor Series kicked off on Saturday with the Women’s WarGames match, and in an incredible showing, it was the team of Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Asuka, Alexa Bliss, and Minchin that came out on top.
In a nearly hour-long contest that saw weapons and moves of all types being traded back and forth, it was the duo of Belair and Lynch who would lead their team to victory. Late in the match, Belair hit Bayley with a KOD into the side of the cage, while Lynch sent herself flying off the top of the cage with a huge splash, putting both Dakota Kai and IYO SKY through a table for the win.
