WWE has announced that Survivor Series this year will feature not one but two WarGames matches, one for the male and female rosters each. There is a lot of excitement over this change to the traditional format of the show. There is one former WWE name however, who is not a fan of this idea.
On his podcast (H/t ITRWrestling), Jim Cornette mentioned that Triple H has shot down the idea of bringing blood back to WWE programming. He implied that it doesn’t make much sense to have a WarGames match without blood, before ripping into the announcement of a Women’s WarGames:
“On the same show, they’re gonna have a women’s and men’s WarGames, a women’s WarGames is ridiculous.’

Jim Cornette explained that the WarGames match is supposed to be the ultimate display of violence among the top guys. According to him, having a women’s WarGames is ‘stupid and rotten’:
‘The WarGames was the ultimate display of violence that could be perpetrated between 10 Guys in a double ring with a double cage to settle a f*cking issue between the biggest stars in all of wrestling. And then on a show they’re going to have 2 of them, and of course, the girls is going to go on first. So a girl’s WarGames with any girls, much less the girls they got, is f*cking phoney and silly and stupid and rotten.”
