Crown Jewel is next up on WWE's event calendar in early November, but Survivor Series has historically been the bigger show, especially since WarGames was made an annual staple at the Thanksgiving weekend classic starting in 2022.

Although the WarGames concept has become repetitive in recent years, it might actually be warranted for both the men and the women at the upcoming Survivor Series. The Bloodline and The 946 waging war on Raw as of late makes matters more exciting, while a case can also be made for the women given the current chaos surrounding the Women's World Championship.

That's in addition to the unpredictable Undisputed WWE Championship picture over on SmackDown and the targets on the backs of United States champion Trick Williams and WWE Women's champion Chelsea Green.

These are the newest match card predictions for Survivor Series 2026 in the immediate aftermath of Money in the Bank.

WWE/WWE via Getty Images There's been much more faction warfare with the women on SmackDown in recent months compared to Raw, but there seems to be a stronger story that can be told with the ladies of the red brand heading into Survivor Series in WarGames.

Liv Morgan is once again the Women's World champion following her Triple Threat victory over Stephanie Vaquer and Becky Lynch at Money in the Bank. She pinned Vaquer to regain the gold and it would be boring for her and Lynch to rekindle their rivalry one-on-one, so Roxanne Perez should be built up as her next opponent.

Before Morgan and Perez can face off for the title, they must first go their separate ways, and a loss in WarGames would accelerate the process. They already have established issues with Vaquer, Lynch, Sol Ruca and Lola Vice, so all of those women (along with The Judgment Day's Raquel Rodriguez) should be a part of the bout.

If WWE is insistent on keeping the five-on-five format, Lyra Valkyria and Jaida Parker can be added to the heel team, provided that Valkyria's archrival Bayley joins the babyface squad. Parker currently has no equal counterpart in The Bloodline unless Naomi's return to the ring is imminent, but it's possible that she makes an enemy out of one of the aforementioned babyfaces in the coming weeks.

WWE/WWE via Getty Images Trick Williams had a standout showing in the men's Money in the Bank Ladder match on Saturday night, but it wasn't quite his time to take home the briefcase. He at least has the United States Championship to fall back on, having kicked off his second stint with the star-spangled prize at Sunday Night's Main Event last month.

SmackDown's midcard scene has been quiet for the better part of the year, as there's no obvious challengers waiting in the wings for Williams at the moment. By Survivor Series, however, Damian Priest should be next in line for an opportunity.

The Archer of Infamy finally betrayed R-Truth on SmackDown in Mexico City last month and has made life miserable for his former friend in the weeks since. When they go one-on-one on the Oct. 16 edition of SmackDown, Priest should win with ease before setting his sights on the United States Championship.

It was Priest's first taste of gold upon joining WWE's main roster in 2021, a title he held for over six months and restored prestige to. It wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility for him to win it back on a stage as special as Survivor Series.

WWE/WWE via Getty Images Everyone at the top of the card on SmackDown has been in hot pursuit of the Undisputed WWE Championship since SummerSlam. Current champ Sami Zayn has no clear number one contender coming out of Money in the Bank, but two names in particular would make the most sense to challenge for it in a Triple Threat at Survivor Series.

As seen on the final SmackDown before Money in the Bank, CM Punk and Kevin Owens have just as much of an issue with Zayn as they do with each other. Although they failed to emerge from the event with the opportunistic briefcase, they can easily contend for the title without it.

Survivor Series isn't for another month and a half, so WWE would have to stretch out the ongoing rivalry between the three of them until then, but it's certainly possible if Zayn's focus is going to be on Roman Reigns until their expected champion vs. champion clash at Crown Jewel.

Punk and Owens' rivalry can continue to simmer in the meantime, making for a marquee matchup come Survivor Series with Zayn as the defending champion. The best part is that any of them could realistically win, or that the title could change hands before then given how volatile the state of SmackDown has been in 2026.

Updated MITB Card 📝Bleacher Report1dMoney In The Bank Ends In Shocker 💼Bleacher Report11hGrading Wild MITB PLE 😮‍💨Bleacher Report10hWWE Women's Championship: Chelsea Green vs. Tiffany Stratton4 of 5WWE/WWE via Getty Images Of everyone involved in the women's Money in the Bank Ladder match, WWE went with the least compelling option as the winner in Tiffany Stratton. She's undoubtedly an incredible talent, but as a former WWE Women's champion and Ms. Money in the Bank, history did not need to repeat itself.

The writing has been on the wall for Chelsea Green since she captured the WWE Women's Championship at SummerSlam. It's no coincidence that she and Stratton became much closer as friends shortly afterward, and it's because Stratton is determined to drop the boom on Green when she least expects it to take her title.

Stratton winning the Money in the Bank briefcase on Saturday simply confirmed that looming reality, and it won't be long before it comes to fruition.

Green first has to dispose of Nikki Bella, who owns a victory over Paige and has expressed interest in fighting for the WWE Women's title. Once Green gets past the WWE Hall of Famer, Stratton can cash in on Green and cement her heel turn by beating her for the belt.

A rematch between the two would be a fine addition to the Survivor Series card. If the Women's World champion is wrapped up in WarGames, this would ensure one of the two women's world title holders is defending on the show.

WWE/WWE via Getty Images More often than not, The Bloodline have been a constant in WarGames at Survivor Series since 2022 and this year may be no exception.

The Bloodline have been running rampant on Raw since WrestleMania 42 and have only bolstered their dominance by adding Jacob Fatu to their ranks in the spring. Simultaneously, they've made enemies out of LA Knight, Solo Sikoa and The 946, so there's any number of directions WWE can go in with WarGames this year.

The Bloodline's team would of course consist of Roman Reigns, The Usos and Fatu. Sikoa would be a logical ally for them based on his decision to team with them for the six-man tag team match on Monday's Raw.

The 946 would fill out three spots on the opposing team, and if they had to recruit two more partners, Knight and Oba Femi would be fine choices. Knight just lost to Reigns at Money in the Bank and might feel betrayed by Sikoa choosing to do anything with The Bloodline, while Femi wants to make a major statement by stepping up to the World Heavyweight champion.

A three-on-three-on-three format would work as well with The Bloodline battling The 946 and the trio of Knight, Sikoa and the returning Seth Rollins, but if five-on-five remains the rule, these are the most likely lineups for the multi-man mayhem that awaits WarGames.
