Summary

The big elimination match on this go‑home show for Survivor Series: WarGames was a proper crowd‑pleaser with plenty of movement and physics, even if it was a classic “repeat but bigger” version of a big team feud. Team Sami Zayn — consisting of Sami, Rey Fénix, Shinsuke Nakamura and the Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin & Alex Shelley) — brought a mix of styles and weathered a lot of heavy offense. MFT (Solo Sikoa, JC Mateo, Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa and Talla Tonga) leaned on power and coordinated strikes throughout, isolating opponents and showcasing a rugged brand of teamwork. The eliminations happened at a steady clip, and it eventually came down to Solo Sikoa standing tall as the sole survivor after putting away Zayn with a Samoan Spike for the pin. Post‑match chaos came when Uncle Howdy ambushed Solo with the Sister Abigail, adding more heat right into Survivor Series weekend.
