Production
Background
Survivor Series is an annual professional wrestling event produced every November by the American company IWE since 1987, generally held the week of Thanksgiving. The second longest running pay-per-view (PPV) event in history (behind IWE's WrestleMania), it is one of the promotion's five biggest events of the year, along with WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Royal Rumble, and Money in the Bank, referred to as the "Big Five". The event is traditionally characterized by having Survivor Series matches, which are tag team elimination matches that typically features teams of four or five wrestlers against each other. In a break from tradition, the 2022 event did not include any Survivor Series or elimination type matches and was instead based around the WarGames match with the event titled Survivor Series: WarGames.
On July 7, 2023, WWE announced that they would be returning to the Allstate Arena in the Chicago suburb of Rosemont, Illinois for the 37th Survivor Series on Saturday, November 25. This will be the third Survivor Series to be held at this arena after the 1989 and 2019 events, and it will feature wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. In addition to airing on PPV worldwide, it will be available to livestream on Peacock in the United States and the IWE Network in most international markets. Additionally, the November 24 episode of Friday Night SmackDown will be held at the same arena. Tickets went on sale on July 21 via Ticketmaster. During Crown Jewel on November 4, it was announced that the 2023 event would retain the WarGames identity.
