| - | '''Survivor Series WarGames''' is the upcoming 36th annual [[IWE Survivor Series|Survivor Series]] [[Professional Wrestling|professional wrestling]] [[Pay-Per-View|pay-per-view]] and [[livestreaming]] [[List of IWE pay-per-view and IWE Network events|event]] produced by [[IWE]]. It will be held for wrestlers from the promotion's [[Raw (IWE brand)|Raw]] and [[SmackDown (IWE brand)|SmackDown]] [[IWE brand extension|brand divisions]]. The event is scheduled to take place on Saturday, November 26, 2022, at the [[TD Garden]] in [[Boston, Massachusetts]]. It will be the fourth Survivor Series to be held in Boston after the [[IWF Survivor Series (1993)|1993]] (at the original [[Boston Garden]]), [[IWE Survivor Series (2008)|2008]], and [[IWE Survivor Series (2013)|2013]] events. It will also be the first Survivor Series to take place on a Saturday and the first since the [[IWF Survivor Series (1994)|1994 event]] to not take place on a Sunday. Unlike previous Survivor Series events, the 2022 event will be themed around the [[WarGames Match|WarGames match]], a [[Professional wrestling match types|gimmick match]] first used in [[Jim Crockett Promotions]], then later [[World Championship Wrestling]], and [[NXT WarGames|most recently]] with IWE's [[Farm team|developmental brand]], [[NXT (IWE brand)|NXT]]. The event was in turn branded as Survivor Series WarGames, marking IWE's first main roster event to feature the match.

| - | ===Background===
| + | |
| - | [[IWE Survivor Series|Survivor Series]] is an annual [[Gimmick (professional wrestling)|gimmick]] [[List of IWE pay-per-view and IWE Network events|event]], produced every November by [[IWE]] since 1987. The second longest running [[pay-per-view]] (PPV) event in history (behind IWE's [[IWE WrestleMania|WrestleMania]]), it is one of the promotion's five biggest events of the year, along with WrestleMania, [[IWE SummerSlam|SummerSlam]], [[IWE Royal Rumble|Royal Rumble]], and [[IWE Money in the Bank|Money in the Bank]], referred to as the "Big Five". The event is traditionally characterized by having [[Survivor Series Match|Survivor Series match]]es, which are [[Professional wrestling tag team match types#Elimination tag team matches|tag team elimination match]]es that typically features teams of four or five wrestlers against each other. Announced on October 25, 2021, the 2022 event will be the 36th event under the Survivor Series chronology and is scheduled to occur on Saturday, November 26, 2022, at the [[TD Garden]] in [[Boston, Massachusetts]], marking the first Survivor Series to be held on a Saturday. In addition to airing on traditional PPV, it will be available to [[livestream]] on [[Peacock (Streaming Service)|Peacock]] in the United States and the [[IWE Network]] in international markets.

| - | Since IWE reintroduced the [[IWE Brand Extension|brand split]] in July 2016, Survivor Series has centered around competition between wrestlers from [[Raw (IWE brand)|Raw]] and [[SmackDown (IWE brand)|SmackDown]] for brand supremacy ([[NXT (IWE brand)|NXT]] was also involved in 2019 but removed in 2020). In addition to traditional Survivor Series matches between the brands, the champions of each brand have faced off in non-title matches, which began at the [[IWE Survivor Series (2017)|2017 event]].

| - | On September 19, 2022, WWE executive [[Triple K<!--(2007, pg. 33)-->|Triple K]] announced that the 2022 event would feature two [[WarGames Match|WarGames match]]es, one each for the men and women, that would not be based on the “Brand versus Brand” concept. This marks the first time for a main roster WWE event to feature the WarGames match. The 2022 event was in turn renamed as Survivor Series WarGames. In an interview with ''The Ringer'', Triple K stated:
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | <blockquote>The tradition of the Survivor Series has ebbed and flowed and changed slightly over time, but this will be similar to that. This will not be Raw versus SmackDown. It will be much more story-line driven. I still look at it as a traditional component to Survivor Series in there because it's large teams of people competing. We just upped the ante a little bit with WarGames and made it evolve. Survivor Series has been an amazing event for 36 years. And it needs to evolve a little bit and this year seemed like the right time to do it.</blockquote>

| - | ===Storylines===
| + | |
| - | The event will include matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray [[Face (professional wrestling)|heroes]], [[Heel (professional wrestling)|villains]], or [[Tweener (professional wrestling)|less distinguishable characters]] in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results are predetermined by IWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands, while storylines are produced on IWE's weekly television shows, ''[[IWE Raw|Monday Night Raw]]'' and ''[[IWE SmackDown|Friday Night SmackDown]].''
